What are dental implants?

A dental implant is a small titanium or zirconia post placed in the jawbone to replace a missing tooth root. After it fuses with the bone, a crown, bridge or denture is attached on top. Implants need enough healthy bone and gum to support them.

Dental implants: specialist or general dentist?

Implants are placed by oral surgeons, periodontists, and general dentists with extra implant training. Specialists are often recommended when bone grafting, sinus lifts, or full-arch cases like All-on-4 are involved. The crown is often made by a general dentist or prosthodontist.
