High-Tech Solution

A dental implant goes even further toward a high-functioning and highly attractive prosthetic. In fact, a dental implant functions like the root of the tooth, and the crown on top is a fully-functioning tooth for all intents and purposes. Once a dental implant has been integrated into the jawbone, it requires no special treatment, and in most cases it will function as well or better than your natural teeth.

If you require many or all your teeth to be replaced in either arch, you can consider a system like Nobel's All-on-4 system, in which an entire arch of teeth is anchored using four implants into the jaw.

Although there are many ways to avoid the negative effects of missing teeth, the crown jewel is the dental implant.
