Campus Construction Update

Starting September 14, we’re closing the Menino building lobby entrance. This, along with the ongoing Yawkey building entrance closure, will help us bring you an even better campus experience that matches the exceptional care you've come to expect. Please enter the Menino and Yawkey buildings through the Moakley building, and make sure to leave extra time to get to your appointment. Thank you for your patience.

When an individual has lost an adult tooth, a dental implant can offer a replacement solution that’s less disruptive to surrounding teeth than a dental bridge and more permanent than a denture. Dental implant surgery replaces tooth roots with metal posts that are covered with artificial teeth. The procedure is typically done in multiple stages to allow the jawbone time to heal around the implant and achieve the best results.
