Dental Implants
What are Dental implants?
A dental implant is a small titanium screw placed in the jawbone where teeth are missing. Dental implants provide secure anchors for placing an artificial tooth or set of artificial teeth. Once placed, the implants will gradually bond with the bone, creating a strong and stable foundation for your new teeth. Small posts are then attached to the implants, and artificial teeth are placed over the posts.
