Zirconia Implants
Dental implants are a popular and effective tooth replacement option. They consist of a small titanium or zirconia post that's surgically placed into the jawbone, serving as an artificial tooth root. Over time, the implant integrates with the bone in a process called osseointegration, providing a strong and stable foundation for a replacement tooth or bridge. Dental implants are designed to look, feel, and function like natural teeth, making them a long-term solution for missing teeth.

Screw Retained
In this type, the restoration (crown or bridge) is attached to the implant with a screw. This allows for easy removal and adjustment by the dentist, making it ideal for maintenance and future modifications.
Cement Retained
Here, the restoration is attached to the implant using dental cement. This method provides a clean, aesthetically pleasing result as there are no visible screw access holes.
Implant Supported Bridge
This is a bridge that's anchored to dental implants rather than natural teeth. It's used when multiple adjacent teeth are missing and provides a stable, long-term solution without relying on natural teeth for support.
Key Features
Implant Body
This is the part that's surgically inserted into the jawbone. It's typically made of titanium or a titanium alloy, known for its biocompatibility and ability to integrate with the bone (osseointegration).
Abutment
This is the connector piece that sits on top of the implant body and above the gum line. It serves as the foundation for the restoration.
Restoration
This is the visible part of the implant—the custom-made crown, bridge, or denture that's placed on top of the abutment.
