Dental Implants and Dentures

Dental Implants:

Implants, surgical devices placed within the jawbone, integrate over time, serving as prosthetic roots to replace missing teeth. This osseointegration process fuses the dental implant with the jawbone, anchoring new teeth or bridges. Success rates, typically reaching up to 98%, vary based on implant placement.

Dentures Overview:

Dentures, false teeth, replace lost natural teeth, whether a few or all teeth, gums, and surrounding tissues, known as full dentures. Tooth loss, resulting from decay, gum disease, or injury, determines the need for dentures.
