The two most commonly asked questions:

Can I still eat my favorite foods with implants?
Yes. Implants are remarkably strong and they stay put, unlike removable dentures. So you can eat and enjoy whatever you wish.

Besides my mental health, do implants have any other effects on my health?
In addition to improving your self-esteem, dental implants can make a difference in your physical health and appearance: As a result of losing any teeth, you inevitably lose mass in your jaw. This affects the overall skeletal structure of your face, which can also result in thin lips, drooping muscles, jowls or witch's chin. Bone loss in the jaw affects the gums, ridges in your mouth, and muscles and nerves in and around the mouth. These conditions are associated with a host of anatomic and clinical problems, ranging from increased tongue size, looseness of remaining teeth, loss of sensation, and other severely painful conditions. These conditions can be avoided through use of dental implants, because implants may halt and even reverse the bone loss that results from losing teeth.

Replacement options - Dental Implants:

Replacing a single tooth, so that grinding down or altering adjacent teeth is no longer necessary.

Used as anchors to support a fixed bridge.

Support loose teeth by being splinted to them.

Support replacement teeth for an entirely toothless jaw

Providing stability for a complete denture, thereby eliminating unsightly moving and clicking associated with dentures
