Implants are a wonderful option for replacement of missing tooth/teeth.Dental implants are the most effective and longest-lasting solution for replacing missing tooth/ teeth. They have the similar appearance as natural teeth and function as healthy natural teeth. At Keystone oral surgery & Dental Implant Centers in Shamokin Dam PA, we’ll provide you with long lasting durable options for tooth/teeth replacement that will help you smile with confidence.
A dental implant is an artificial tooth root, usually made of titanium. A complete dental implant has three components:
Implant
A titanium root form that is surgically placed into the jawbone
Abutment
A connector, placed on top the implant root form before a crown is secured to it.
Crown
A restoration to replace the visible, white portion of your tooth.
A trained oral surgeon at Keystone oral surgery and Dental implant Center will place the implant and the abutment, and your general dentist at his office will place the crown.
