Tooth Replacement
Dental implants are titanium posts that are securely
anchored to the patient’s jawbone. They serve as a substitute for the roots
of the missing teeth and they also help reduce further bone loss, thereby
protecting the patient’s remaining teeth.
After the bone around the implant
heals, the implant restoration can occur. Restorations are artificial teeth
that are positioned onto the posts. The results of implant dentistry appear
very natural. In addition, the patient's chewing ability is increased, and
speech and appearance are improved.
