What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are simply an artificial root (usually made of titanium) that is surgically placed into upper or lower jaw bones. The dental implants Edmonton replace your missing teeth and provide a solution to the challenges that a denture wearer may experience. The practice of implant dentistry requires expertise in planning, surgery and tooth restoration; it is as much about art and experience as it is about science.

Dental implants are one of the most reliable and long-lasting ways to replace missing teeth. With screw-like devices, the dentist inserts an implant into the jawbone, and it acts as an anchor for an artificial tooth – called a crown. A device called an abutment connects the artificial tooth to the dental implant Edmonton. The crown is custom made to fit your mouth and match the color of your teeth. Crowns look and feel like natural teeth.
