Replace your missing teeth
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots that are surgically placed into the jawbone to support a replacement tooth or bridge. They are typically made of titanium, which is a biocompatible material that integrates well with the surrounding bone tissue.
​
The process of getting a dental implant involves several steps. First, the dentist will evaluate the patient's oral health and determine if they are a good candidate for the procedure. If so, the implant will be surgically placed into the jawbone, where it will fuse with the bone over a period of several months.
​
​Once the implant has fully fused with the bone, a custom-made replacement tooth or bridge can be attached to the implant. The replacement tooth or bridge is designed to match the color and shape of the surrounding teeth, making it a natural-looking and long-lasting solution for missing teeth.
The benefits
Dental implants offer several advantages over traditional tooth replacement options such as dentures and bridges.
They are more durable and long-lasting, provide better stability and support for the replacement teeth, and do not require any special maintenance or cleaning procedures. However, dental implants can be more expensive and require a longer treatment time than other options.
