What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a biocompatible device placed in the bone where a tooth is missing. After integration, it can support a fixed or removable restoration designed around the patient’s needs.
A stable foundation for replacement teeth
Dental Implants
Dental implants replace missing tooth roots and can support a crown, bridge, snap-in denture, or full-arch restoration. Your treatment plan is based on your health, anatomy, goals, and the type of restoration you choose.
Single-Tooth Implants
A single implant can support a lifelike crown without relying on adjacent teeth. Optimum Dental uses BioHorizons implant systems and can place a temporary restoration right away in select cases.
Full-Arch Implant Systems
Approaches such as All-on-4 or All-on-6 use several implants to support a full-arch prosthesis. The number and placement of implants depend on anatomy, bone, bite, and the recommended restoration.
Snap-In Implant Dentures
Two or more implants may improve the stability of a removable overdenture and reduce reliance on denture adhesive. The prosthesis remains removable for cleaning.
