Implants
The dental implant is a titanium post that is placed in an area of the jaw where there is a missing tooth or teeth. The Implant then heals in the jaw and then a dental crown is placed on top of it. The dental implant is essentially a tooth replacement. The implant does not require anchorage by other good teeth like a bridge. It is incorporated in the bone. You can floss it brush it and best of all chew with confidence! Implants can also support a denture. Many insurance companies cover dental implants. Dr. Sabbagh can verify your insurance coverage for this state of the art technology. Learn more about dental implants.
