If you choose dental implants to replace a missing tooth or teeth — it can really become a turning point in your life. That’s why we’d love for you to consider dental implants in 2022 for restoring your smile, improving your oral health, and boosting your overall confidence! Dental implants are increasing in popularity due to their high success rate, natural look, and because they feel and function just like natural teeth. They’re the real deal.
Basically, dental implants are devices consisting of three parts; the first part is a post, usually made of titanium. These posts are substitutes for tooth roots and are installed in your jaw bone and will connect to the second part of an implant, called an abutment, which is built on top of the implant post.
The abutment allows the third and final part of an implant, the artificial tooth, to be connected to the implant post and abutment. These three parts, the post, abutment, and artificial tooth (also known as a crown) come together to create one naturally-looking, strong tooth.
