Overview

Dental implants are titanium screws that are surgically placed into the jawbone to replace missing teeth. These screws fuse with the bone to create an artificial tooth root, and dental prostheses (crowns, bridges, or dentures) are placed on top. Dental implants are an effective and permanent solution to address chewing difficulties, speech problems, and aesthetic concerns caused by missing teeth.
