When you are missing one or more teeth, placing an implant can be a good solution. An implant is a titanium screw, a special metal, that is placed as an artificial root in the jawbone under the gum tissue. This implant can serve as a solid foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures and thus replace your original tooth root. Usually, an implant is placed during a small surgical procedure under local anesthesia.

The benefits of an implant are:

• It is not necessary to grind healthy surrounding teeth when placing it.
• Chewing feels almost as natural as with your own tooth.
