Always follow your post-op instructions carefully! Questions about dry socket? call us at (423)-246-8211.

Did you know that when a tooth is lost, the jawbone beneath it begins to deteriorate? This process, called bone resorption, can change your facial structure, making you look older and weakens the foundation for future tooth replacements. Dental implants are the only solution that stimulates the jawbone, preventing this loss and preserving your natural facial contours. Don't just replace the tooth; replace the root!
