Single and Multiple Dental Implants
Single and multiple implants are applied in two parts. A small titanium implant is inserted into the jaw bone to replace the missing root.
This implant will then fuse with the jawbone, providing strength and durability, becoming the self-supporting foundation for the newly created tooth. It normally takes 3-6 months for the procedure.
A crown or denture is then made to fit over the top to create the look and function of a natural tooth/ teeth.
You May be a Candidate for these types of implants if you are missing one or more teeth in between healthy natural teeth.
Why are Dental Implants so Effective?
Modern dental implants work due to a process called Osseointegration.
Osseointegration is an amazing process by which normal healthy bones form a direct interface with a dental implant ensuring an extremely strong long-term connection.
This then gives the perfect platform for replacement teeth, dentures or another prosthesis.
