A dental implant is a surgical component that is placed into the jawbone to support a dental prosthesis, such as a crown, bridge, or denture. It acts as an artificial tooth root, providing a strong and stable foundation for replacement teeth. Dental implants are made of biocompatible materials, typically titanium, allowing them to fuse with the bone in a process called osseointegration. This integration ensures durability and longevity, making implants a popular and effective solution for missing teeth. The procedure can significantly improve both the function and appearance of a patient’s smile.
