What are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots surgically placed into your jawbone to support a replacement tooth or bridge. The implant is made of titanium, which fuses with your jawbone over time. Once the implant is securely in place, a crown or bridge is attached to the implant to create a natural-looking and functioning tooth.
Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants offer many benefits, including:
- Improved appearance and confidence
- Restored ability to chew and speak properly
- A long-lasting and durable solution
- Prevention of bone loss in the jaw
- Easy to maintain and care for
Common Procedures
There are several standard procedures involved in getting dental implants:
- Evaluation: Your dentist will evaluate your mouth and jaw to determine if you qualify for dental implants.
- Implant placement: The implant is surgically placed into your jawbone under local anesthesia or sedation. The implant may take several months to fuse with the bone and heal properly.
- Abutment placement: Once the implant is securely placed, an abutment is attached. The abutment serves as a connector between the implant and the replacement tooth or bridge.
- Crown or bridge attachment: The replacement tooth or bridge is attached to the abutment, completing the implant process.
