What are Dental Implants?
Implants are basically a titanium metal rod which is inserted into the jaw bone. It is then used to support one or more false teeth, which is the ‘dental implant’.
Implants are permanent and you can have any number of teeth replaced, from one single tooth to a complete set.
Dental implants are suitable for most people and can be used to replace missing or natural teeth as a cosmetic option.
