What is a dental implant?
A dental implant is an artificial tooth root made of titanium, shaped like a screw. When inserted into the bone, the implant has the unique ability to fuse with it. This process, called osseointegration (which corresponds to the healing of the bone around the implant), creates a fixed and solid foundation to support a restoration. Implants can be used for both the upper and lower jaw.
Preserve your jaw health with dental implants
Natural teeth play a crucial role in stimulating the jawbone. When a tooth is missing, the underlying bone begins to resorb and shrink, which, over time, can lead to the loss of other teeth and compromise overall dental health. When multiple or all teeth are missing, bone atrophy can become significant and, in some cases, may give the face a sunken appearance.
What about the implant procedure?
It is a surgical procedure that involves certain risks.
