Losing a tooth (Or teeth) can be a devastating experience – functionally & emotionally, Apart from affecting aesthetics and self-confidence, missing teeth cause functional disability like difficulty in chewing and speech aberrations. To overcome all of the problems, Dental implants are the perfect solution.
Dental Implants are well recognized and most advanced procedures in tooth replacement. Implants hold a crown, bridge or denture just like natural teeth are in place they truly are the best replacement of your natural teeth. Dental implants are actually integrated in your jaw bone, after which the crown, bridge or denture is then attached to the implants.

A Dental Implant is a titanium tooth root that is placed into your jaw to replace missing tooth or teeth. Dental implants are an ideal option for patients in good general and oral health. Implants work well in people who have lost a tooth or teeth due to periodontal infections, Endodontics/Root canal treatment failure, an injury, or various other reasons.
Generally, implant rehabilitation is a two phase procedure. First phase involves the surgical placement of an implant/s at the proposed site followed by flap closure or temporary tooth in place. The second phase is after two to four months later, depending upon the site of placement in the mouth, which involves the placement of the permanent crown/bridge/denture.
