Dental implants are a highly effective solution for lost teeth. Crowns mimic natural teeth in their form and function and titanium posts bond with and stimulate your jaw bone, allowing the Dental Implants to act just like a natural tooth would. Unfortunately, implants can occasionally fail, and if this happens we will need you to come in so we can repair or replace them.

In cases where the implant crown becomes cracked or detached, it is an easy matter for us to attach a new, or make any other repairs if necessary. However, if the damage to the implant is too severe, we will need to remove and replace it. It is easy for us to remove a failed dental implant, but we will need to use a local anesthetic for this procedure.
