Dental implant
Dental implant
Implants are artificial tooth roots used to replace missing teeth. The implants are made of biocompatible materials such as titanium that can be accepted by the human body. The implants are placed in the bone where the teeth are missing. The bone then adheres to the implant surface creating a strong foundation onto which artificial teeth (crowns and bridges) can be attached.
Dental implants are the first option to replace missing or bad teeth. Restorations that go on top of implants look, feel and function like natural teeth. These restorations are permanently fixed to the implants, providing stability and eliminating the unpleasant aspects of removable prostheses: speech problems, soft tissue inflammation, chewing difficulties, lack of adjustment, among others.
