What Are Dental Implants?
- Dental implants are root-like structures made of titanium, a material which our body easily accepts.
- They can be used to replace as few as one tooth or all the teeth in the mouth.
Components of Restored Dental Implant
How Do Dental Implants Work?
- Implants are artificial roots which are inserted into the bone to replace the natural roots you have lost.
- A strong bond is formed between the implants and the bone over several weeks or months. The implants provide a stable foundation for crowns, bridges or dentures which are placed over them. An abutment is the interface that connects the new tooth to the implant.
- Due to the stability of the implants, the new teeth are very firm and make eating & chewing feel as natural & comfortable as closest possible to your original tooth/teeth.
