A dental implant is the replacement of a natural tooth root with a titanium post embedded into the jawbone, serving as a stable foundation for a dental crown or bridge. It’s ideal for individuals who have lost a permanent tooth due to accidents, decay, or gum disease.
With its secure structure, a dental implant allows for efficient chewing, enhances appearance, boosts confidence, and helps maintain long-term jawbone health.
The implant procedure requires careful planning by a specialized dentist and typically takes 3–6 months to heal before placing the permanent crown. Materials such as zirconia or porcelain are used to achieve a natural, aesthetic look.
