Today’s dental implants are changing the way people live! With dental implants from Sherman Oaks-based Southland Dental Care, people are rediscovering the comfort and confidence to smile, eat, speak, laugh and enjoy life.

Dental implants are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel and function like natural teeth. A person with dental implants regains the ability to eat virtually anything and can smile with confidence, knowing that their teeth appear natural and that facial contours have been preserved. Dental implants consist of small titanium posts which are placed into the jawbone where teeth are missing or need to be replaced. The bone in the jaw bonds with titanium, creating a strong foundation for artificial teeth.

In addition to restoring a natural appearance in your mouth, dental implants help preserve facial structure, and prevent bone deterioration, which typically occurs when teeth are missing.
