Implant
treatment is recognized as a proven alternative to conventional
dentistry, and patients worldwide can testify to its benefits.
Because traditional methods of tooth replacement, such
as bridges, partials, and dentures have disadvantages
in terms of both appearance and function, dental implants
are considered by many dentists to be the preferred method
of tooth replacement. Replacement teeth supported by dental
implants have success rates higher than 90% in long-term
function.
A dental implant is a small screw made of titanium, which
is a metal that the body easily accepts. The dental implant
is inserted into the jawbone and acts as a firm anchor
for the replacement tooth.
