Dental Implants
A dental implant is a permanent replacement for a missing tooth. It consists of a titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone, which acts like a tooth root. A crown, bridge, or denture is then attached to the implant to restore function and appearance.
🔩 Parts of a Dental Implant:
- Implant Post: Titanium screw placed in the jawbone
- Abutment: Connector piece that supports the crown
- Crown: Visible part (the artificial tooth)
