Discover comprehensive dental care in Blackwood at Forest Dental. Our skilled team is committed to providing the best dental services. A titanium post is placed in to the jaw bone to replace the roots of the missing tooth. Once the implant has integrated into the bone, which can take a few months, a custom-made crown is screwed directly onto it. During the integration period, a temporary tooth can be fitted, so the post is never visible. Implants offer significant benefits over alternative methods of filling single-tooth gaps.
