Dental implants are changing the way people live. They are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth which look, feel and function like natural teeth.
The average mouth is made to hold only 28 teeth. It can be painful when 32 teeth try to fit in a mouth that holds only 28 teeth.
Over a period of time, the jawbone associated with missing teeth atrophies or is reabsorbed.
Orthognathic surgery is needed when jaws don't meet correctly and/or teeth don't seem to fit with jaws.
