Dental Implants

If you have experienced tooth loss, you are not alone. According to the American Dental Association, more than 20 million people in the United States are missing all of their natural teeth, and more than 100 million are missing from 11 to 15 teeth. Last year alone, dental professionals performed more than 500,000 dental implant procedures worldwide. Here at Dr. Jeng D.D.S., we also offer dental implants through our implant specialist, Dr. Steven Huang.

What is a dental implant?

• A dental implant is a small titanium screw or cylinder (pictured to the right) which is surgically placed in the upper or lower jawbone.
• The implant replaces the root of the missing tooth, providing an anchor for your new tooth/teeth.
  
   

• Many patients choose dental implants over other procedures, because the result is a natural appearance that is intended to be permanent.
• Lifestyle improvement because of naturally beautiful, confident smiles. Dental implants may allow you to enjoy your favorite food, have confidence you desire for both professional and social life, and help improve chewing or speech problems because of missing teeth.

• Improve your smile
• Eat the foods you enjoy
• Restore chewing for easy digestion
• Speak with greater ease
• Restore your facial structure
• Enjoy an active lifestyle
• Live with confidence
