Dental Implant

A dental implant is a surgical component that interfaces with the bone of the jaw or skull to support a dental prosthesis such as a crown, bridge, denture, facial prosthesis, or as orthodontic anchor. The dental implant is a prosthetic device used to replace missing teeth. It's essentially a small, screw-shaped post of titanium that is surgically placed into the jawbone to act as a replacement root for a missing tooth. Dental implants are known for their durability and ability to mimic the look and function of natural teeth. They also help prevent bone loss that often occurs with missing teeth. If you’re considering them, it’s important to discuss your options with a dental professional to see if they’re the right choice.
