What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are small screw-shaped medical devices usually made of titanium. This material was chosen because of its biocompatible nature, meaning it is very suitable and does not cause negative reactions when placed in the human body. Dental implants serve as replacements for missing tooth roots, which will then be placed on top of an artificial tooth crown that looks and functions like a natural tooth.

The key process behind the success of dental implants is osseointegrase, which is a natural process in which the jawbone will grow and fuse tightly with the implant surface. After osseointegration is complete, The implant will provide a stable and solid foundation to support the crown, bridge, or even full dentures, provides much better stability than other gear replacement options.

Most adults who are missing one or more teeth are good candidates for dental implants. However, There are several important criteria to consider:

• Good General Health: Patients must be in good enough health to undergo minor surgical procedures. Certain medical conditions such as uncontrolled diabetes or autoimmune diseases can affect the healing process.
• Availability of Sufficient Jawbone: So that the implant can fuse well, adequate volume and quality of the jawbone is required. If the bones are not enough, bone grafting procedure (bone grafting) may be required before the implant can be placed.
• Healthy Gums: Gums should be free from periodontal disease (gum) active, because infection can interfere with the success of the implant.
• Commitment to Oral Hygiene: Patients must commit to maintaining excellent oral hygiene after the procedure to ensure the long-term success of the implant.
