Implants are the most exciting advancement in the recent history of dentistry.  Dr. Browne works with local oral surgeons to permanently replace missing teeth through implant dentistry.  Initially, a small titanium cylinder is placed in the bone.  Over the next few months, the bone will grow through and around the cylinder to anchor it into the jaw.  Next, a post is screwed into the cylinder and a crown is placed onto the post giving you a natural looking and fully functioning new tooth!  Implants can and should be used to replace multiple teeth as well.
