Implant Dentistry

The dental implant is considered as the standard care for prosthetic replacement of missing teeth in dentistry. Dental implants are used to replace one or more teeth or all of the teeth. The purpose of teeth replacement in dentistry is to restore function as well as esthetics. A dental implant is a surgical fixture that is placed into the jawbone and allowed to fuse with the bone over a few months. The dental implant serves as a replacement for the root of the tooth which is lacking. This "artificial tooth root" holds the replacement bridge or tooth. Having a dental implant joined to the jawbone is the closest thing to copying a natural tooth. Because it stands on its own without affecting the nearby teeth. Dental implants are mainly made of titanium. It enables them to combine with bone without being a foreign object into the body.

There are many benefits for taking dental implant for tooth replacement over the other methods. Through dental implants, the missing teeth can be replaced without affecting or altering the adjacent teeth. Furthermore, because dental implants integrate into the bone structure, they are very stable and can have the look and feel of one's natural teeth.
