Dental implants are available at Clayburn Dental in Abbotsford for patients who are looking to replace missing teeth.
What are dental implants?
Missing a tooth? Anyone that is looking to restore the aesthetic look and functionality of their smile, in addition to repairing and improving their facial structure, may consider dental implants as a restorative treatment option.
A dental implant is an artificial post made of titanium metal that serves as a substitute for the root of a missing tooth. The top of the post is attached to an artificial tooth (crown) to complete the restoration.
