The implant replaces the function of the missing tooth root and transmits the chewing force from the crown to the jaw bone. This natural stress helps to keep the jaw bone vital so that it does not deteriorate. The new tooth should not only fulfill its intended function but should appear indistinguishable from the neighboring teeth, especially those teeth that are most visible in the front of the mouth.

Implant-retained teeth not only look like your own teeth, they also feel like them. The implant, crown and gums form a harmonious unit. The dental implant replaces the lost tooth root and acts as a post for the implant crown. Grinding down the neighboring teeth is not necessary so healthy teeth are preserved. |
Replacement of a single tooth in the front and back regions by an implant-supported crown.
