Dental implant surgery is a minor surgical procedure used to replace missing teeth with artificial tooth roots and crowns. It involves placing a small, screw-like post—usually made of titanium—into the jawbone to act as a strong foundation for a replacement tooth.
During the procedure, a dentist or oral surgeon makes a small incision in the gums and carefully inserts the implant into the bone. Over the next few weeks to months, the implant fuses with the jawbone through a natural process called Osseointegration, creating a stable base.
Once healing is complete, an abutment (connector) is attached to the implant, and a custom-made crown (artificial tooth) is placed on top. The final result looks and functions like a natural tooth.
Dental implant surgery is usually performed under local anesthesia and is considered safe and routine. It is commonly recommended for people who have one or more missing teeth and want a permanent, durable, and natural-looking replacement option.
