  • What to Know Before Getting Dental Implants

    Dental implants are surgical components infused into the jawbone by an oral surgeon and are used to replace the roots of a tooth. They provide a strong foundation for fixed or removable teeth replacements such as crowns, dentures and bridges. While cosmetic dentistry procedures such as bridge-works rely on nearby healthy teeth for support, use of dental implants gives the bridges a strong foundation in themselves.

About Me
Dentures and Dentist

Hello, my name is Jack. I am now 79 years old. As you can imagine, my teeth have taken something of a battering over the years. I lost a couple of teeth in a bar fight, four more decayed and one had to be extracted when it became infected. After losing so many teeth, my dentist suggested that I have dentures fitted. I was worried about this but my dentist was really great. He helped explain the procedure and then did an excellent job. I love my new dentures and I wanted to start this blog to offer help to others.
