A dental implant is a medical device used to replace missing teeth. It consists of a metal post, usually made of titanium, that is surgically inserted into the jawbone.
This post acts as an artificial tooth root, providing a stable foundation for a replacement tooth such as a crown, bridge of denture.
Dental implants are popular because they look and function like natural teeth and they help preserve the jawbone, preventing bone loss that can occur with missing teeth.
