Can dental implants preserve bone?

This is one of the most important features of all dental implants. Once the implant is in place and supporting teeth, everyday functional forces stimulate the bone surrounding the implant, which responds by becoming more dense - and therefore stronger. Like all things, the number of things your implant can do for you is limited. Your treatment provider will be able to discuss this in more detail as it relates to your case.
