About Implants

Patients do not go to the dentist for crowns, bridges or dental implants. THEY WANT TEETH! They expect them to look good, feel good, work well and be long lasting and healthy.

Implants meet those expectations. In this age of cosmetic dentistry, patients are defining implant success as: esthetic tooth replacement, natural function, longevity and a healthy environment that can be maintained with routine oral hygiene. For those who may have permanent tooth loss due to disease or accident, implant surgery is an excellent option.

A dental implant begins with a sterile Titanium cylinder (screw) that is placed into the jawbone under the gums. This implant grows to the bone and becomes a replacement tooth root. Following the healing process, a crown, partial and/or denture can be placed to the implant making it look natural.

Implants are no longer experimental, exotic or rare. Implant procedures are affordable and as basic as restorative dentistry. They are becoming the treatment of choice for an increasing number of everyday people who want the best that dentistry has to offer.

Implant technology is available here at Dr. Cliff Hays General Dentistry. Dr. Hays is qualified and certified to place Perio Seal implants because he believes it to be the best implant system on the market today.
