How Dental Implants Work.

How do dental implants work? Dental implants are artificial tooth root replacements that are used to support a restorative dental prosthesis such as a crown, bridge, denture, or facial prosthesis or to act as an anchor for orthodontic movement. The implant is usually made of titanium and is surgically placed in the jawbone. Once placed, the implant bonds with the surrounding bone through a process called osseointegration. Once integrated, abutments may be attached to connect the implant with a dental restoration like a crown or bridge. With proper care and maintenance, implants can last for many years and provide excellent oral health benefits.
