Dental implants are synthetic tooth roots surgically placed into the jawbone to support replacement teeth. They are an ideal solution for individuals missing one or more teeth.
A dental implant is a prosthetic solution for missing teeth. The surgeon secures a screw-like implant into the jawbone, serving as a stable foundation for an artificial tooth, known as a crown. An abutment links the implant to the crown, which is custom-designed to blend seamlessly with the patient’s natural teeth in both color and function. This restoration provides a natural look, feel, and durability, enhancing oral health and aesthetics.

DENTAL IMPLANT - SINGLE TOOTH IMPLANTS
Single Tooth Implants
Single-tooth implants are an effective solution for individuals missing one or more teeth. A dentist surgically places the implant into the jawbone, creating a stable foundation. Once the implant fuses with the bone, it functions as a new root for the artificial tooth. A custom-made crown, designed to resemble a natural tooth, is then attached to restore the missing space.
For a successful implant, the jawbone must be strong and sufficient in volume. If needed, a bone augmentation procedure can be performed to enhance bone density. Additionally, surrounding teeth and tissues must be healthy to support the implant effectively.
The procedure involves surgically placing a titanium implant into the jawbone, where it integrates to form a stable foundation. Once healed, an abutment connects the implant to a custom-made crown, designed to match the natural teeth in shape and color.
DENTAL IMPLANT - MULTIPLE TOOTH IMPLANTS
multiple Tooth Implants
Multiple-tooth implants are an excellent solution for replacing several missing teeth without relying on traditional bridges or dentures. This procedure involves surgically placing two or more implants into the jawbone, serving as secure anchors for multiple artificial teeth. Once the implants integrate with the bone, custom-made crowns or bridges are attached, restoring function and appearance.
For successful implantation, the jawbone must be strong enough to support the implants. If needed, bone augmentation may be performed. Unlike traditional dentures, multiple-tooth implants provide a more natural look, improved chewing ability, and long-term durability, ensuring a comfortable and permanent dental solution.
Replace several missing teeth by surgically placing implants in the jawbone, providing a stable foundation for crowns or bridges. This solution restores function, appearance, and durability. A strong jawbone is essential, and if needed, bone augmentation may be performed for long-term stability and a natural-looking smile.

Final Result
The dentist conducts an initial examination and takes one or more X-rays of the area to assess and prepare for the procedure.
The implant is surgically placed, and a temporary tooth is provided, allowing you to eat and function normally right away. It takes a few months for the implant to fully integrate with the jawbone before proceeding to the next step.
The final step involves attaching the permanent ceramic tooth, which is designed to last a lifetime. Once installed, no further treatment is required.
The new tooth is designed to fit and function like a natural tooth. Maintain your regular dental hygiene routine to keep both the tooth and the surrounding gums clean.
