What is a Dental Implant?
A dental implant acts as an artificial root that is inserted in the jawbone to replace the root of the natural tooth. After insertion, a man-made pearly white is fastened to the dental implant. It is regarded as a fixed anchor for the replacement tooth.
Dental implants become a viable option to all those with an already developed facial structure (16-18+) and enough oral strength to undergo routine dental extraction and oral surgery without issues. Patients are expected to have healthy gums and enough bone to accommodate the implant.
They are a great choice for those born with missing teeth or are lacking teeth due to past injury, decay, and/or infection.
