Understanding implants
What is a Dental Implant?
A dental implant is a small titanium post that is placed into the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth.
Once the implant has healed and integrated with the surrounding bone, it can support a dental crown, bridge or other restoration.
Unlike removable dentures, implants are designed to provide a stable and natural-feeling solution while also helping support the jawbone.
