What are dental implants?
A dental implant is used to support one or more false teeth. It is a titanium screw that can replace the root of a tooth when it fails. Just like a tooth’s root, it is placed into the jawbone.
Missing a tooth often adds a dent to our smiles making us want to smile less. But why smile less when you can book an appointment for dental implants? An implant is a root. And because some patients don’t have a root anymore, we have to fix a root for them. Fixing these roots takes three to five months, as the bones in the teeth need to hold the hook that has been put in it. This is called bone integration.

Dental Implant is a safe, well established treatment. It’s true to say that implants, much like natural teeth, will last for as long as you care for them. How well you look after your implants, that is, whether you go for regular maintenance appointments, will have the biggest impact on how long they will last.
