Implants
Q. What is a dental implant?
A dental implant is created by placing a titanium post into the jawbone, which acts as an anchor for a false tooth or a set of false teeth. Unlike other replacement solutions, implants are permanent; anchored in your jaw just like the teeth you were born with.

Q. Who is a candidate for dental implants and how successful are implants?
Anyone who wants to replace missing teeth is a candidate for implants, provided that they have enough bone in the area of the missing teeth to provide anchorage. Some people are missing all their teeth and most of those are excellent candidates for dental implants. Today we also use implants to replace small bridges, removable partial dentures and even missing single teeth.
The potential for success depends on where the implants are placed and what they will be called upon to do. The success rate at Millennium Smile for the past five years has been over 99% for all implants placed.
