Common Questions About Implants

What is a dental implant?

A dental implant is made up of 3 parts: a titanium post, an abutment and a restoration. Built to function like natural tooth roots, dental implants provide bone support and a stable foundation for a single crown, a denture, or a full arch prosthesis.

What are All-on-4 dental implants?

All-on-4 dental implants are a solution for full arch teeth replacement, utilizing four to six strategically placed implants to securely support a complete set of permanent, natural-looking artificial teeth.

What makes dental implants “the gold standard”?

Dental implants are the only permanent tooth replacement option, and they’re designed to last for decades. Because they are surgically inserted into the jawbone, they provide health and functional benefits comparable to natural teeth.

 

Who is a candidate for dental implants?

Almost every patient is a candidate for dental implants, and the results can transform people’s smile and ability to eat. With over 10,000 implants placed, the advanced surgical experience of our team at EasySmile Implant Studio frequently helps patients that have been told in the past that they are not candidates for dental implants. This is because we also offer advanced implants such as zygomatic and pterygoid implants that are able to stabilize and anchor the implant in other strong areas around the jaw.
