More Americans are choosing dental implants for tooth replacement. Anchored in the jawbone, dental implants look and function more like natural teeth. Realizing the lack of patient information on the topic, four dental implant specialists wrote this book. One of the first books on the topic, it answers such questions as:

• What are the benefits of dental implants?
• Who is a candidate for implants?
• How are implant inserted?
• What are possible risks and complications?
• Who is qualified to place dental implants?
• How long does the process take?
