Dental implants are appliances that are designed to imitate the look and feel of a natural tooth. Unlike dentures, which are superficial and can be removed easily, a dental implant is permanent. The implant becomes a part of the patient's mouth.

Years ago, dentists learned that healthy human bone tissue will heal over a foreign object. So when a metal or ceramic material is inserted into the jawbone, the tissue will heal around it and hold it in place. This is what makes a tooth implant such a popular solution for missing teeth. The metal implant is carefully placed into the jaw and given time to be "accepted" by the inner bone tissue. When it's firmly in place, a dental restoration that looks just like a natural tooth can be attached on top. For dental implants Hazelwood residents know they can come to Dr. Kallial's office for a quality result.

Dental Implants Make Life Easier for Many PatientsDental implants can significantly improve a person's appearance -- the restoration looks and feel like a real tooth. Any improve to a person's appearance can also improve the person's quality of life. Patients with missing teeth often avoid smiling and standing out in social settings to hide their teeth. Dental problems can even affect a person's ability to eat certain foods and pronouncing certain words correctly.

Dental implantation is a procedure that can drastically improve a patient's self-esteem and make life easier. Dr. Joseph Kallial can attest to this fact, having performed dozens of dental implants over the years.
