The Cause of Tooth Loss in Adults
The causes of tooth loss in adults are multifaceted. Periodontal disease stands as the leading culprit, a silent affliction that can quietly undermine the foundations of your teeth. Tooth decay, injury, and lifestyle choices also play significant roles in tooth loss, affecting not just oral health but overall wellbeing and self-esteem.
The Consequences of Losing Your Teeth
Tooth loss is not just an aesthetic issue; it's a health concern. Without the root structure of a tooth, the jawbone can begin to deteriorate, affecting facial structure and function. Remaining teeth bear extra burdens, which can lead to additional wear, misalignment, and further loss.
What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are the closest you can get to healthy, natural teeth. They are titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone where teeth are missing. These metal anchors act as tooth root substitutes. They are then allowed to bond with the jawbone and serve as a foundation for an artificial tooth, known as a crown.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do dental implants work?
Because implants fuse to your jawbone, they provide stable support for artificial teeth. Dentures and bridges mounted to implants won't slip or shift in your mouth, which is especially important when eating and speaking.
Are dental implants safe?
Yes, dental implants are a safe and well-established treatment. It’s one of the safest and most predictable procedures in dentistry when performed by a trained and experienced dentist.
Who can get dental implants?
Most adults in good general oral health who have lost a tooth or teeth due to periodontal disease, injury, or other reasons may be candidates for dental implants. A detailed evaluation by our team can determine if implants are the right option for you.
How successful are dental implants?
Success rates of dental implants vary, depending on where in the jaw the implants are placed. However, in general, dental implants have a success rate of up to 98%.
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care and maintenance, implants can last a lifetime. The crown attached to the implant may need to be replaced every 10-15 years due to wear and tear, although they can last for decades in some cases.
Will dental implants look and feel like my natural teeth?
Yes, dental implants are designed to look, feel, and function like your natural teeth. With dental implants, you should be able to resume normal activities such as eating, speaking, and smiling with confidence.
Are dental implants painful?
Most people who have received dental implants say there is very little discomfort involved in the procedure. Local anesthesia can be used during the procedure, and most patients report that implants involve less pain than a tooth extraction.
How do I care for dental implants?
Dental implants require the same care as real teeth, including brushing, flossing, and regular dental check-ups.
How much do dental implants cost?
The cost of dental implants can vary depending on the specifics of your individual needs. We provide transparent pricing and work with you to explore financing options and insurance coverage to make your treatment affordable.
Does insurance cover the cost of dental implants?
Many insurance plans are starting to include dental implants as a covered benefit. However, it depends on your specific insurance plan and benefits package. We can help you determine your coverage during your visit.
What is the dental implant procedure like?
The procedure is typically performed in stages: The damaged tooth is removed, the jawbone is prepared for surgery, which may involve bone grafting. After the jawbone heals, the implant post is placed, and the surrounding bone is given time to heal and integrate with the implant. Lastly, the artificial tooth (crown) is placed.
How long does the dental implant process take?
The process can vary from person to person and can take several months from start to finish due to the healing time required between procedures.
