Dental implant is about an artificial tooth root, placed by a dentist in a human’s jaw. If any body loose their teeth, dental implants are ideal for a healthy person. Dental implants are tooth saving than conventional bridging. Such implants are independent and do not require any support from next tooth.

Implants are as natural as original tooth. They look and functions exactly like the original that you forget that you have lost the tooth and you are working with implant. Technologically advanced so well that every body is assured a perfect original tooth.

TYPES OF IMPLANTS
They also do effective bridging that an affected tooth gets new life and eliminates need of replacing. An alternative to bridging or removable dentures is ENDOSTEAL. This implant uses screws / cylinders / blades surgically placed in jaw bone. Each can hold more prosthetic teeth.

For those who are unable to wear conventional dentures and who have minimal height of jaw bones are blessed with SUBPERIOSTEAL. Metal frame work posts protruding through gum on top of jaw to hold the prosthesis.

ADVANTAGES:
