Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made of titanium that provide a permanent base for fixed, replacement teeth. They are the standard of care for missing teeth.

With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last a lifetime. The crown attached to the implant typically lasts 10 to 15 years before needing replacement.

Most patients report that the procedure involves less pain than a tooth extraction. Local anesthesia is used, and post-operative discomfort is usually managed with over-the-counter pain medication.

The cost varies depending on the number of teeth being replaced and whether additional procedures like bone grafting are needed. A single implant typically ranges from $3,000 to $4,500.
