Dental Implants

Dental Implants are accepted as the most effective, safe, and long-lasting treatment for the replacement of lost and missing natural teeth. A dental implant can be defined as the structural and functional replacement prosthesis for tooth replacement. Dental implants are constructed by using the bio-compatible material which develops a strong biological connection with the alveolar bone of the tooth socket. Dental implants also restore and maintains aesthetics.

This treatment requires no removal of sound tooth structure from the adjacent teeth. Dental implants provide the support to implant-retained dentures if required any in cases of the whole dental arch teeth replacement procedure.
