Dental
implants are artificial teeth anchored to the jawbone with a titanium
screw. They are used to replace one or more missing teeth. Some people also use
implants to replace all their teeth that may have been lost due to decay or
injury.
Implants are an alternative to
conventional tooth replacement prostheses like bridges or dentures. Compared to
these old replacements, implants do a better job of imitating a natural tooth’s
look, feel, and function. This makes them the gold standard of care for patients
with missing teeth.
