What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a titanium screw surgically placed into the jawbone to replace a missing tooth root. Once healed (osseointegrated), a custom crown is attached on top, giving you a permanent, natural-looking tooth that lasts 20-25+ years.
- Implant fixture — titanium screw placed in jawbone (acts as tooth root)
- Abutment — connector between implant and crown
- Crown — custom-made ceramic/zirconia tooth on top
