A dental implant is essentially a titanium screw that gets placed into the bone to replace the missing tooth.
The implants are made of titanium, meaning they are very biocompatible. And over three months, the implant will integrate with your natural bone to form a strong and rigid connection, which is why they are such excellent treatment options for replacing missing teeth.
Why Should I Get a Dental Implant Instead of a Bridge?
If you have missing teeth, are interested in a fixed appliance, and you're looking into a dental bridge, a tooth implant is a great alternative. They are much less invasive than your conventional bridge, which may involve altering the surrounding healthy teeth.
Implants are great for single tooth gaps, particularly in the back and the front of the jaw, to restore function and aesthetics.
