What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a titanium (or zirconia) post surgically placed into the jawbone to act as a replacement tooth root. Once healed, it supports a crown, bridge, or denture, restoring both function and appearance.
Dental implants are widely considered the best alternative to missing teeth because they:
- Look and feel natural
- Prevent bone loss
- Do not damage adjacent teeth
- Provide long-term stability
- Restore full chewing strength
When performed correctly, implants are one of the most predictable treatments in modern dentistry.
