If one or more of your teeth are missing, there are a number of ways to replace them. Dental implants may be an alternative to bridges, partials, or complete dentures. A dental implant is an artificial root made of titanium metal that is inserted into the jawbone to replace the root of the natural tooth. An artificial replacement tooth is attached to the implant. The implant acts as an anchor to hold the replacement tooth in place. Dental implants are comfortable and look like natural teeth.
