Dental Implants – Permanent, Natural-Looking Replacement for Missing Teeth
What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a biocompatible titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth. Over time, the implant fuses with the bone through a natural process called osseointegration, creating a solid foundation for a crown, bridge, or full-arch prosthesis.
What Dental Implants Can Replace
Dental implants can be used to replace:
- A single missing tooth
- Multiple missing teeth : with implant-supported bridges
- All missing teeth : using full-arch solutions like implant-supported dentures or All-on-X
Step-by-Step Dental Implant Procedure
- Comprehensive Consultation & Planning Digital X-rays, 3D scans, and oral evaluation determine bone quality and implant suitability.
- Implant Placement Surgery The implant is precisely placed into the jawbone under local anesthesia or sedation.
- Healing & OsseointegrationThe implant integrates with the bone over 3–6 months, forming a stable anchor.
- Abutment & Crown Placement A custom-designed tooth (crown) is attached for natural appearance and function.
