What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a small support placed into the jawbone to replace the root portion of a missing tooth. Once the area has healed and the implant is ready, a dental crown is attached to it. The crown is the visible part that is shaped to resemble a natural tooth.
A complete dental implant solution generally includes:
Implant: The support that replaces the tooth root.
Abutment: A connector between the implant and crown.
Dental crown: The visible replacement tooth.
Together, these components can help restore the appearance and function of a missing tooth.
