3. The Ins and Outs of Dental Implants
In earlier times, when a tooth required extraction,
there was little oral health providers could do to
replace it. However, modern medical science
eventually created an artificial implant that restores
the appearance and functionality of the lost tooth.

4. The Ins and Outs of Dental Implants
When installing an implant, a medical professional
first places a titanium foundation into the jawbone.
The dental prosthetic then attaches to that
foundation, giving it the same level of support a
normal tooth receives from the jaw.

5. The Ins and Outs of Dental Implants
All modern implants fall into the class of root-form
endosseous products, which includes items that
appear similar to a tooth root and that insert into the
bone. These items support a wide range of dental
prostheses like dentures and crowns.
