Dental Implants
Dental implants are actually a series of procedures used to recreate a missing tooth. The key part of a dental implant is the initial titanium implant which sits in the original tooth’s bone pocket, or alveolus. The titanium works well with the bone and actually forms a bond with it over time, much like the original bond between the tooth and the jaw bone. This is essential as it prevents bone loss that would normally occur with any other type of tooth replacement. Dental implants are capped with a crown, which replicates the enamel or visible portion of a tooth, and in many cases the replacement tooth will work just as well, if not better, than the original tooth.
Dr. Rai has been nothing but welcoming and conscious in each of my visits within the last couple of years I have been a patient. He calls to check up on both my husband and I after visits and always remembers the little details about our lives that always make you feel cared for! I highly recommend SB Dental Spa and Dr. Rai!Alison J. - Santa Barbara, CA
