What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are considered the gold standard for replacing missing teeth. A dental implant consists of a small titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone, where it functions as an artificial tooth root. Once the implant has fully healed, it is restored with a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture to create a secure and natural-looking replacement tooth. Because implants integrate directly with the jawbone, they provide unmatched stability while helping preserve bone and preventing the facial changes that often occur after tooth loss.
