What is a dental implant?
Dr. Andrew Greenberg describes the dental implant as a tooth root replacement made of titanium. The dentist places the implant with oral surgery into the jawbone of the patient. The dentist restores the abutment of the implant with a crown, bridge, or denture. Dental implants are versatile as they can be used to replace one or more teeth in a row. Patients find that dental implants are worth the investment, as they can last a lifetime.
What are the benefits of implant dentistry?

- Safe

Are dental implants right for me?
Patients considering dental implants may ask their dentist, are dental implants right for me? During the first consultation appointment, the dentist will provide a thorough evaluation. This may include x-rays, which are used to ensure patients have enough bone structure to enjoy successful implantation. Without enough bone, the patient will experience an unsuccessful placement. Bone grafting might be performed before placing dental implants to ensure the implant has the structure it requires for satisfactory surgery.
