Are there any side effects of dental implants? What type of metal is used in the implant?  Yogen

Dr Festa: Depending on the doctor who places the implants,  the side effects of the implant surgery are generally mild and short lasting.  A little soreness at the surgurical site should be expected.  The metal used in most implants today is made up of mostly titanium.  The materials used are very bio-compatible and become part of your jaw bone.  Call today for a  free consultation at 203-966-9696.
