If you’re suffering from tooth loss, dental implants are the most preferred solution to replace missing teeth—no matter if you’re missing one tooth or all of your teeth.

While implants have a nearly 100 percent success rate, the success of your implants will depend on properly caring for dental implants. With the right maintenance and care, your implants can last a lifetime.

Piney Point Dental Implant Center is here to help you understand the differences.
