What are dental implants? 

We’re going to talk about dental implants today. It is a revolutionary thing in the dental field nowadays. The best thing about dental implants is that they can replace a missing tooth without damaging the adjacent tooth. It is like your own natural teeth, which we replace with implants. 

What is the dental implant procedure? 

The main thing in the implant is that we have a titanium screw which we put in the jawbone, and we fix the tooth on that. So that becomes the root of the structure, and we can chew very effectively with this replacement.  Now I would explain to you what implants are using this model, making the explanation easy to understand.  Suppose we have three teeth missing here. So what we do is we put two implants in the jawbone. And then, we can put the upper teeth on these implants. And the patient will have no issue chewing with these implants.
