A radiant smile not only expresses joy and confidence but also has a significant impact on your overall health. To retain their smiles, individuals who lose teeth due to various circumstances including injuries, disease or decay often consider dental implants as a permanent solution. Dental implants at HNSA (Head + Neck Surgical Associates) in Portland, OR, provide a stable base for replacement teeth and enhance oral functionality to promote overall wellbeing.
What are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are surgical components that interface with the bone of the jaw or skull to support a dental prosthesis such as a crown, bridge, denture or facial prosthesis, or to serve as an orthodontic anchor. They are made from titanium or titanium alloys, known for their durability and compatibility with biological tissues, meaning they are readily accepted by your body.

- Implant Placement: The surgical procedure is performed under local anesthesia. The titanium post is placed into the jawbone to act as the new tooth root.
- Implant Restoration: Once the healing process is complete—typically 3-6 months later—the replacement tooth (crown) is affixed to the post.
