They are the most advanced tooth replacement systems
ever devised. An implant is a post that is surgically placed in the jaw. A
prosthesis (artificial tooth or teeth) is then attached to the post. With the
exception of natural teeth nothing looks more natural than an implant.
Advantages of implants are, they slow shrinkage of bone and gum tissue from the
missing tooth area thus preventing premature aging. Also they never decay, need
root canal and most of the last for more than fifteen years.
