A dental implant is a long-lasting solution for replacing a missing tooth. A complete implant restoration includes a titanium implant post, an abutment, and a custom dental crown that work together to restore the appearance, function, and strength of your smile. Because implants are designed to function like natural tooth roots, they also help support your jawbone and surrounding teeth.
