Implants are among the newest and most promising innovations in dentistry today. By offering a long-lasting, life-like replica of a tooth, implants restore functionality and bring the smile back to its natural state. Most implants are made of titanium, a highly biocompatible material. They are available in a variety of textures, patterns and coatings, which improves the interaction of the implant with the surrounding bone. The design chosen for the patient is determined by the remaining bone, the site of the implant and the type of prosthesis planned. An implant is topped with an abutment, and a crown is then placed upon the abutment, to achieve a natural look.
