The statistics are surprising. According
to studies carried out in the year 2000 and based on a population of 280

people are missing one or more teeth. Sports injuries alone knock
out another 2 million teeth every year. Until recently, options for

In his remarkable new book, As Good As
New: A Consumers Guide to Dental Implants, Charles A. Babbush,
D.D.S., M.Sc.D., has cut through the clutter of confusion surrounding
the safety and reliability of dental implants. Dr. Babbush, a
world-renowned dental implant surgeon who began conducting research and

who could be well served by implants but are under the impression the
procedure is still in the new or testing stages.
