Dental implants are metallic elements that are surgically placed in the maxillary bonesunder the gums. Once in place, the dentist can be placed upon them crowns or fixedbridges which will replace lost teeth.
The implant fuses with the jawbone, providing stable support for artificial teeth.Dentures and bridges placed over implants they do not slide or run in the mouth,which is a particularly important advantage for chewing and speech. This adaptationhelps to make dentures and bridges (as well as individual crowns placed over implants) feel more natural than the conventional.
