Dental implants
A missing tooth may result from complications after root canal treatment or other circumstances. A dental implant can be considered as one option for replacing it.
An implant is a small titanium fixture placed in the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth. It can support a prosthetic crown.
Implants may be used to replace one or several missing teeth. In selected cases, implant placement may be considered after extraction. The treatment plan depends on an individual clinical assessment.
