Failing to replace missing teeth can significantly impact your oral health, leading to issues such as bone loss, shifting teeth, and bite problems. Dental implants offer a highly effective solution, acting as artificial tooth roots placed in the jawbone to replace lost natural teeth. These implants, topped with crowns, closely replicate the look and function of real teeth, providing a stable and aesthetically pleasing alternative to dentures and bridges. Dental implant techniques can address the loss of one or several teeth, and in some cases, a full set of artificial teeth can be supported by implants. As depicted, the metal implant root is inserted into the jawbone, and the artificial tooth is attached via an abutment. Additionally, implants can be equipped with special attachments like press-studs to securely hold dentures, minimizing their movement and enhancing comfort and functionality.
