A tooth implant is a permanent replacement for a missing tooth. A tooth replaced with an implant has three components. The first is a titanium implant which is attached to the jaw bone. The second part is an abutment, which is affixed to the titanium implant. The abutment sits above the gum line and provides a surface for attaching the dental crown. The dental crown is the third part. It is shaped and colored to perfectly match your natural teeth. You can eat the foods you love and not worry about it falling out while talking. Dental implants are permanently set in your jaw bone!
Replacing your missing tooth with a tooth implant and restoration can lead to a healthier life and a longer lasting set of teeth. Do not let bone deterioration lead to further missing teeth when a dental implant can complete your smile while promoting bone retention.
