Implants
Dental implants are a modern and permanent solution for replacing missing teeth. They consist of titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone, providing a stable foundation for artificial teeth. The implant acts as an artificial tooth root, integrating with the jawbone through a process called osseointegration. This creates a strong and durable anchor for a dental crown, bridge, or denture.
The dental implant procedure typically involves several stages. Firstly, a thorough examination and assessment of your oral health will be conducted to determine if you are a suitable candidate for implants. This may include dental X-rays, scans, and impressions. If your jawbone is deemed healthy and adequate, the implant placement surgery can be scheduled.
