Happy Patients
From an Implant Dentist
Dental implant surgery is a procedure that replaces tooth roots with metal, screw shaped posts and replaces damaged or missing teeth with artificial teeth that serve both aesthetic and function. It’s a great alternative to dentures or bridgework, depending on the patient.
Dr Elaine was interested in pursuing dental implants during the time she was completing her Bachelors. It was important for her to educate her patients about the procedure to reassure their worries and help them understand the essentials.
The community she serves in Kuala Lumpur which has a large aging population that have experienced tooth loss and offering these services has made a huge impact on the number of smiles she was able to restore.
