Dental implants are a stable, high-tech option for restoring your smile. Traditional dental restorations, such as bridges and dentures, only restore the chewing surface of the tooth, leading to bone loss and more damage to your smile in the long run. Dental implants, on the other hand, replace the root as well as the tooth surface, preserving the health of your entire smile for a lifetime.
Dental implants are made of three main parts:
- The post, which replaces the tooth root and provides a stable, reliable foundation for your restoration
- The abutment, which connects the other two parts of the implant and protects against bacteria and decay
- The restoration, which completes the implant and acts as the new surface of the tooth
