What is a dental implant?

Dental implants are devices made of titanium or ceramic used to replace the root of the tooth and give support to a prosthesis, thus contributing to improved physical appearance (masticatory function, diction, speech functions). Implant solutions are suitable for patients who have lost one, several, or all of their teeth. Below you can see the structure of a natural tooth compared to an implant and prosthesis.
