Replace Missing Teeth & Boost Your Confidence With Dental Implants

Dental implants are one of the most advanced and durable solutions to replace missing teeth. Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, implants integrate directly with the jawbone to create a strong foundation that results in teeth replacements that look and feel natural.

The purpose is to prevent bone loss, restore chewing strength, and improve the appearance of missing or broken teeth. Whether you’re missing a single tooth or interested in replacing all of them, dental implants might be a good option for you. Our Davie, Plantation, and Tamarac offices use modern 3D imaging and custom treatment planning to make sure every patient gets the care and results they need.

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone. Once healed, they are used to support a crown, bridge, or denture to restore chewing function and aesthetics. Since implants fuse with your bone, they are more durable and natural-looking, making them one of the most effective  and popular solutions for replacing missing teeth.

Am I a Good Candidate for Dental Implants?

Most adults in good oral and general health qualify for dental implants. Ideal candidates have healthy gums, adequate jawbone density, and no uncontrolled medical conditions. Even if you’ve experienced bone loss, procedures like bone grafting can often help you qualify. A consultation with an implant dentist—including X-rays and evaluation—determines your eligibility and ideal treatment plan.

Do Dental Implants Hurt?

Most patients report minimal discomfort thanks to modern anesthesia and sedation options. During the procedure, you won’t feel pain, and postoperative soreness is typically mild and manageable with medication. Many patients compare the recovery experience to a simple extraction. Following your dentist’s aftercare instructions helps ensure smooth healing with minimal downtime.

Are Dental Implants Safe?

Dental implants have a long history of success and are considered one of the safest dental procedures available. Made from biocompatible materials like titanium, implants integrate naturally with the bone. Complications are rare when performed by an experienced implant dentist and when patients follow proper oral hygiene and post-operative care guidelines.

How Do You Take Care of Dental Implants?

Taking care of your dental implants is very similar to taking care of your natural teeth. Daily brushing and flossing are essential, as well as routine dental cleanings to help keep the surrounding gums and bone healthy. You should also always avoid smoking and maintain a healthy diet. With consistent and thorough daily care, implants remain stable and functional for several years.
