Dental Implants offered by Dr. Keith Wall, DDS

Dr. Wall performs dental implants.  Implants are beneficial to patients who want to replace a missing tooth/teeth with one that feels and looks like their natural teeth.  Implants involve surgical placement of the dental implant into the dental bone.  This is followed by a healing time of a couple of months.  Following adequate healing, a crown is fabricated and attached to the implant.  The care of the implant is like the care of a natural tooth.
