Losing teeth may also affect your confidence, chewing, and appearance. DENTAL IMPLANTS have become one of the safest and most successful forms of tooth replacement. At Dentity Dental, we believe that patients should have clear guidelines for their options before moving forward with treatment with the help of an implant. It is a complete guide of all the popular dental implant types with pros/cons for each.
Endosteal implants are placed in the jaw and are designed to serve as strong artificial roots.
