Dental Implants
Dental implants are the perfect solution for people who have lost some or all of their teeth. When it comes to replacing missing teeth, dental implants offer a more permanent and convenient solution than traditional dentures or removable bridges.
A dental implant is an artificial tooth root replacement and is used in prosthetic dentistry. There are several types of dental implants; the most widely accepted and successful is the Osseo integrated implant, based on the discovery by Swedish Professor Per-Ingvar Brånemark that titanium can be successfully fused into bone when osteoblasts grow on and into the rough surface of the implanted titanium. This forms a structural and functional connection between the living bone and the implant. A variation on the implant procedure is the implant-supported bridge, or implant-supported denture.
