Understanding Dental Implants
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots surgically placed into the jawbone to support replacement teeth. These titanium posts fuse with your natural bone, creating a strong foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures. Implants mimic the look, feel, and function of natural teeth, providing a long-lasting solution for tooth loss.

Definition of common dental implants terminology
Abutment: The abutment is the connector piece between a dental implant and the crown.
Osseointegration: Osseointegration is the process by which your dental implant bonds and integrates with the surrounding bone.
Titanium: This is a strong metal that is often used for implants. It is also the same material used to make airplane wings, so you know it is very strong. This metal is also lightweight, which makes it perfect for implants.
Bone Graft: A dental bone graft is a procedure to add more bone in a part of the jaw where bone has been lost or where additional support is needed.
Dental Crown: A crown is an artificial tooth-shaped “cap” that is placed over the top of the implant to provide an aesthetically pleasing and fully-functional tooth.
