A single dental implant replaces one missing tooth from root to crown — without grinding down the healthy teeth on either side, as a traditional bridge would. The result looks, feels and functions like a natural tooth.
When you lose a single tooth, the two main options are an implant or a bridge. A bridge relies on filing down the neighbouring teeth to support it; a single implant stands on its own, preserving those healthy teeth and stimulating the bone underneath the gap.
At Rahouly Dental Clinic, Dr. Samer Rahouly places single implants using in-clinic panoramic imaging for precise planning. Most patients are surprised how straightforward and comfortable the procedure is. Not sure which option suits you? See our implants vs bridges vs dentures comparison.
