Dental implants are metal cylinders made of titanium surgically placed in the jawbone where teeth are missing. Dental implants replace the roots of missing teeth and support single implant crown, implant crown bridges, and dentures. State-of-the-art technology makes it possible for these implant-supported replacement teeth to look, feel, and function like natural teeth. There are many options to consider and we work with your oral surgeon and periodontist to help you make the best treatment option.

In some cases, a removable partial denture is made to attach to your natural teeth with devices called precision attachments. Precision attachments are generally more esthetic than clasps.
Crowns on your natural teeth are sometimes needed to improve the fit of a removable partial denture and they are usually required with attachments.
Veneers
Dental veneers are custom-made, natural-looking coverings for your teeth made of high-quality dental material.
Veneers can improve the appearance of teeth that are:
Veneers also can mask the gaps in your smile. They are different from crowns because they cover only the front surface of a tooth rather than the entire tooth structure.
