Dental implants are prosthetic teeth connected to an artificial tooth root made of titanium metal. The tooth looks and feels natural and the root is implanted directly into the jawbone. Dental implants can be used to replace one, some, or all of your teeth. They are securely anchored and feel just like natural teeth which is why many people find implants to be the best tooth replacement option.
Are Dental Implants Right for Me?
You will need to consult with your dentist for a thorough examination to determine whether dental implants are the right option for you. In general, individuals in good overall health with sufficient jawbone density are strong candidates for dental implants. However, if a tooth has been missing for an extended period, the jawbone in that area may lose density and may not be able to support an implant. In such cases, your implant dentist may recommend a bone graft to strengthen the jawbone and prepare it for successful implant placement.
How Do Dental Implants Work?
First, your dentist will do a full examination of your mouth and take X-rays to determine whether or not dental implants are the right choice for you. Dental implant surgery is usually done in multiple stages in order to allow for healing in between steps, although sometimes the first two stages of surgery are completed in one appointment, depending on the state of your jawbone and overall oral health.

How Much Do Dental Implants Cost?
Like any dental procedure, your tooth implant cost is variable depending on multiple factors such as insurance plans and the extent of work a patient needs done—for example, full dental implants cost a lot more than just one tooth implant.
Your dental implant cost can be high and not necessarily covered by insurance, but it is a one-time fee, unlike other tooth removal and replacement options which can require multiple expensive maintenance appointments that add up to be as much or more than dental implant costs in the long term.
