A natural tooth consists of a root and a crown, and dental implants are designed to replicate this same structure. Implant-supported replacement teeth use a titanium post as the artificial root, which is placed in the jawbone, and a crown that restores the visible portion of the tooth. At Columbia Oral & Facial Surgery Center, we use this approach to replace missing teeth with a stable, natural-looking solution that restores function and blends seamlessly with surrounding teeth.
Third molars, commonly called wisdom teeth, are the last teeth to develop and are located at the very back of your mouth behind the second molars. At Columbia OMS, we evaluate wisdom teeth to determine whether they are impacted or misaligned, or likely to cause future problems such as pain, infection, or crowding, and perform safe, precise removal when needed using advanced imaging and sedation options for patient comfort.
