Dental implants are the clinic’s treatment of choice when it comes to replacing missing teeth. They have the appearance of, and they function just like, natural teeth.
What is a dental implant?
A dental implant is a small titanium screw that’s fixed carefully into the jawbone. The implant is used as an anchor for one or more replacement bionic teeth. These teeth are bridges, crowns or dentures. In the 1960s, it was noticed that titanium forms a strong bond with surrounding bone. This process of bonding titanium and bone is called ‘osseointegration’ and this is now the reason that titanium is used to create dental implants. Richmond patients will have to wait for up to six months for osseointegration to take place before the crown, bridge or denture can be added in order to fully replace the missing tooth.
