Type of tissue involved: Dental implants are placed into the jawbone. Suitability depends on the quality and quantity of available bone and the condition of the surrounding gum tissue.
Dental implants are an option for replacing lost teeth or teeth damaged beyond repair. They are made from biocompatible materials and support a dental crown, bridge or denture. Common implant materials include titanium and ceramic. The implant type and restoration depend on clinical assessment. Dental implants are surgically placed into the jawbone, where they support the planned restoration after healing.
Common dental implants use titanium or ceramic components and are placed into the jawbone during surgery. Dental implants do not use dental adhesive or sugar-based materials. Depending on the treatment plan, an implant supports a single crown, bridge or denture.
Dental implant treatment is sometimes suitable for patients with previous jawbone damage. Bone grafting or another preparatory procedure is sometimes required.
