Dental implants are used to replace missing or damaged teeth by surgically embedding artificial tooth roots made of a biocompatible metal known as titanium into the jawbone. They offer a durable and natural-looking alternative to traditional dentures and bridges, enhancing both function and aesthetics.
Components of Dental Implants
A dental implant consists of three main components:
-
Implant Body/Fixture: A titanium screw surgically placed into the jawbone, serving as a replacement for the tooth root.
-
Abutment: A connector placed on top of the implant body, which holds the artificial tooth.
-
Crown: A custom-made artificial tooth that attaches to the abutment, designed to match the natural teeth in shape and color.
Procedure
Involves initial consultation, implant placement, healing period (osseointegration), and final restoration with the crown. Healing time can vary, but the implant usually integrates with the jawbone over a period of several months.

Implants are more stable, preserve jawbone health, look and feel like natural teeth, and don’t affect adjacent teeth.
5. Can anyone get dental implants?
Some people with certain medical conditions (like uncontrolled diabetes or immune disorders) or insufficient bone may not be ideal candidates, but there are options like bone grafting.

Maintain good oral hygiene by brushing twice a day, flossing daily, and visiting your dentist regularly to check the implant’s health.
