Dental implant alternatives
Dental implants are a type of dental restoration used to replace one or more missing teeth. They are surgically placed in the jawbone and act as artificial tooth roots that support a replacement tooth or a dental bridge. At Southampton Aesthetic Dentistry we provide dental implants for the affordable price in Southampton, PA.
What are dental implants made of?
Dental implants are typically made of titanium or other biocompatible materials that can fuse with the jawbone through a process called osseointegration. Once the implant has fused with the bone, a connector called an abutment is attached to the implant, which supports a replacement tooth or bridge.
