Implant dentistry is a branch of dentistry that focuses on the placement and restoration of dental implants, which are artificial tooth roots used to support replacement teeth or dental prostheses. Dental implants are designed to function and look like natural teeth, offering a long-lasting solution for individuals with missing teeth. Dental implants are small titanium or titanium alloy posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone. These implants serve as stable anchors for dental restorations, such as crowns, bridges, or dentures. The success of dental implants relies on a process called osseointegration, which involves the fusion of the implant with the surrounding bone. Over time, the jawbone integrates with the implant, providing a strong and stable foundation for the prosthetic tooth or teeth. The placement of dental implants is typically performed by oral surgeons or implantologists. The procedure involves making an incision in the gum tissue, drilling a hole into the jawbone, and carefully inserting the implant. After placement, a healing period is necessary to allow osseointegration to occur. Once the implant has integrated with the bone, the restorative phase begins. This involves the placement of a custom-made dental crown, bridge, or denture onto the implant. The restoration is designed to blend seamlessly with the natural teeth, providing a functional and aesthetically pleasing result. Not everyone is a suitable candidate for dental implants. A thorough evaluation is necessary to assess oral health, bone density, and overall health. Factors such as gum disease, inadequate bone volume, or certain medical conditions may affect the success of implant placement. However, bone grafting or other pre-implant procedures can often be performed to improve candidacy.
