The Truth About Dental Implants

Even though there have been so many updates to dental care procedures, many people still suffer from the loss of their teeth, due to injury, tooth decay, and gum disease. Bridges and dentures were the only options to replace missing teeth for many years, that was until dental implants came about.

What are dental implants you ask? Dental implants are replacements of roots of your teeth. A dentist in New York, NY can assist you with making sure you are a great candidate for dental implants.
