Implants make the replacement of missing teeth possible, for others that look, feel and function as your own. During the first step of this procedure, a titanium post or screw is placed in the patients’ jawbone. After osseointegration has been achieved and gums have scarred around the implanted post, a dental prosthesis is slipped over the post. They are more stable and comfortable that many other tooth replacement options and, given that posts fixing the dental implants are integrated to the jawbone, they also help to prevent bone loss and gum recession. Definitely, dental implant is the treatment of choice when you need to replace missing dental pieces.
