Dental implant placement

Dental implant placement involves surgically inserting a titanium post into the jawbone to serve as a durable root for a replacement tooth. First, the dentist carefully exposes the bone and drills a small hole to insert the implant. The implant is then securely placed into the bone, where it will integrate naturally over time. After healing, a supporting connector called an abutment is attached, and finally, a custom-made crown is affixed to restore function and appearance. This process provides a stable, long-lasting solution for missing teeth, closely mimicking natural teeth in both function and aesthetics.
