Dental Implants are a long-term solution to replace missing teeth. Seven out of ten adults ages 35 to 44 will lose at least one permanent tooth to an accident, gum disease, a failed root canal or tooth decay. One in four adults will lose all of their permanent teeth by age 74. Dental implants for single tooth replacement or to secure a denture mean less frustration with diet restrictions and discomfort from ill-fitting dentures. Implants help reduce bone loss in the jaw from missing teeth and they look and feel like natural teeth.
