What is a Dental Implant?

It is considered a replacement for a missing tooth. They are a screw-like structure (diameter of 1.8 mm to 7 mm)^[5]NCBI Dental Mini-Implants “Osseointegration has become the focus of modern implantology, leading to the introduction and refinement of the osseointegrated root form implant — implants vary in diameter from 1.8 mm to 7 mm.” View in Article, placed into the jawbone. It is then allowed to fuse with the bone over a period of a few months.

The dental implant acts as a substitute for the root of a lost tooth. The process of fusing the dental implant and the jawbone is called “osseointegration.”

Dental implants are generally made of titanium. This material allows them to merge with bone without being recognized as a foreign object in your body.

A dental implant consists of three parts:

• The Implant: It is a screw-like structure that is placed into the jawbone. It gives a strong base that supports the tooth.
• The Crown: It is also known as a dental cap. It encircles the screw and looks exactly like your original teeth. It is usually made up of gold, titanium, and zirconia.
• The Abutment: It is made up of porcelain, gold, or titanium. It connects the implant and the crown.
