Implant treatment is a dental procedure used to replace missing teeth or stabilize dentures. It involves surgically placing a titanium post into the jawbone, which serves as a replacement for the tooth root. Once the post has fused with the bone, a crown or other restoration can be attached to the top of the post.
Implant treatment typically involves several steps:
Evaluation: The dentist will evaluate the patient's dental health and bone structure to determine if they are a good candidate for implant treatment.
Placement: The dentist will surgically place the titanium post into the jawbone.
Healing: The post will need to fuse with the bone over a period of several months, during which time the patient may wear a temporary restoration.
Restoration: Once the post has fully fused with the bone, a permanent restoration, such as a crown or bridge, can be attached to the top of the post.
Implant treatment is a popular option for patients who have lost one or more teeth due to injury, disease, or other factors. It provides a stable and long-lasting solution that looks and functions like a natural tooth. However, implant treatment may not be suitable for all patients, and a consultation with a dentist is recommended to determine if it is the right option for an individual case.
