You can treat them as your natural teeth in chewing, brushing, and flossing.
They won't move or slide as dentures sometimes do and can give you a more confident smile.
More people are discussing dental implants today because they look and function like natural teeth. Yet, dental implants have been around with the first one being done in 1965. That patient, Gosta Larsson, died in 2005 with the same implants installed more than 40 years prior.
Installing dental implants is a two-part procedure with one part being a surgery and the other a dental procedure of installing the crown over the post. The surgery has a small risk of infection, delayed healing in the jawbone, jaw fractures, and nerve damage. We strive to minimize these risks and can discuss them with you.
