Dental Implant : Replaceing broken or damaged teeth.

A dental implant is an artificial tooth root replaceing broken or damaged teeth.
When you are using a dental implant to replace missing teeth, your dentist will first determine if you have enough supporting bone to safely place a dental implant to support a prosthetic tooth. Osseointegrated implant is the most widely accepted and successful in dental implant.

Dental implants have gained popularity over dental bridges in recent times. Dental implants are essentially a titanium screw that is fused with the bone tissue and is anchored into the jaw bone. Once the implant is fused firmly with the jawbone, a porcelain crown is fastened onto the exposed portion of the dental implant.
