Metal implants are the wiser choice as they perform tooth functions best. They are usually made with noble metal alloys so that an infection doesn’t spread through the gums. However, they are easily spotted and have little or no aesthetic value.
The biting force makes up for the attractiveness that gets lost and metallic implants lasts longer than porcelain which makes it the more cost effective solution.

Implant dentistry requires surgery and you will have the experts, Dr. Mike Pham and Dr. Peter Vo to take care of you during the process. Depending on how much surgery is required, you will be sedated with a local or general anesthetic prior to surgery.
The procedure itself is simple and can be completed in a single visit. You need a prior checkup and have the impressions of your teeth taken so the lab can build your artificial implant and crown.
There may be further treatments necessary depending on your current dental health such as bone grafting and periodontal treatments.
