A dental implant is a tiny titanium cylinder that replaces the function of a tooth root. Dental implants offer solutions for tooth replacement that look and feel like natural teeth. Dr. Bob Wilson has completed extensive training in dental implants.

Dental implant restorations have advantages over other tooth replacement procedures, such as a traditional dental bridge, which requires drilling on adjacent teeth to create support for the replacement tooth. An implant is placed in the site of a missing tooth and restored with a dental crown to close a space, without disturbing other teeth.

A dental implant is a fixed prosthesis; therefore, multiple dental implants may be preferred over a removable dental appliance for improved bite stability and confidence. Dental implants may also be used to secure a complete denture and make a life-changing difference for denture wearers.
