Dental Implants

Dental implants are artificial roots that are surgically placed to support a crown or bridge. They are designed to last a lifetime with proper dental care. Dental implants take 6-9 months to complete since it is a multi-step procedure.

FAQ: Will dental implants work for me?

The only way to know is to have a consultation/exam with the dentist to determine whether or not you are a candidate for dental implants. Dr. Shipley determines whether there is adequate bone to support the implant, as well as the health of the supporting tissue.
