Dental implant surgery is a procedure that replaces missing teeth by inserting metal posts into the jawbone to support artificial teeth.
These posts, usually made of titanium, act as tooth roots and fuse with the bone through a process called osseointegration. Once healed, a connector (abutment) is attached to hold a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture. The surgery may be done in stages depending on bone condition and healing time. It offers a durable, natural-looking solution for tooth loss and is often preferred over dentures or bridges for its stability and long-term benefits.
