Dental Implants help replace missing teeth with artificial teeth, but they are strong and durable, similar to natural teeth. Dental Implant is a cosmetic procedure to replace your missing tooth. The surgery involves attaching a base-screw assembly to the jaw bone to support a dental prosthesis, such as crowns, bridges, or dentures. A variable amount of recovery time is required for osseointegration before either the implant is attached to the dental prosthesis (tooth, bridge, or denture) or an abutment that holds the dental prosthesis.
