Implants

Do you have missing teeth that you wish you could replace?


Dental implants are the ideal solution. Dental implants can closely restore full function and natural, lifelike appearance when a tooth is missing.  However, not everyone is a candidate for dental implants. At Tannum Dental, we offer an in-depth consult with Dr Stella, organise imaging & scanning to determine that implant treatment is a possiblity for you to get you smiling with confidence again.

A dental implant is a metal screw that is used in place of the root of your missing tooth. The dental implant is attached to the bone in your jaw where the roots of the missing tooth sat. The implant is usually made of a metal called titanium.

A dental implant can support a bridge, crown or denture. Over time, bone grows around the implant, which helps to hold it in place. It consists of 3 parts. Dental implant screw, custom abutment & implant crown. A dental implant is the only tooth-replacement option that replaces the entire tooth, including the root.
