Dental implants have a 98% are about 98% successful according to a recent study
just published in the Journal of Oral Implantology. The study used researchers at two sites and also compared bone loss around the implants. “With an estimated two of three Americans missing at least one tooth, implants are becoming the preferred tooth replacement option. Implant surgery is one the safest, most precise, predicable procedures in dentistry,” said researcher Dr. Lozada.
Considering that the average crown placed in America has about a five year success rate (according to insurance company statistics) this 98% success rate of dental implants is certainly reassuring. At Dr. Gibbs' office is Geln Ellyn and Wheaton, we offer a 15 year dental implant warranty!

Good to hear that from you that 98% of dental implant succeeded. Dental implant is much better rather than dentures and it looks more natural.

With a success rate as high as this, it seems that dental implants are a great choice for replacing a tooth. Do you have figures for other options such as dentures? If you do, maybe you can post them so readers can compare them with having dental implants. Thanks in advance!
