What Is a Dental Implant and How Does It Work?
A dental implant is a small, screw-shaped post — usually made from medical-grade titanium — that is surgically placed into the jawbone to serve as an artificial tooth root. Once the implant has healed and fused with the bone through a natural process called osseointegration, it provides a permanent, stable foundation for a dental crown, bridge, or denture. If your jaw has thinned, read about bone loss and dental implants.
The implant itself sits entirely within the bone, hidden beneath the gumline. An abutment is then attached to the top of the implant, and a custom-made crown is placed over the abutment. The result is a replacement tooth that looks, feels, and functions like a natural tooth.
Unlike bridges, which require grinding down adjacent healthy teeth for support, implants stand independently. And unlike dentures, which can slip and cause discomfort, implant-supported restorations are fixed permanently in place. For full-arch cases, compare All-on-4 vs All-on-6 implants before you request a quote.
