A dental implant in Oatley, NSW, is a tooth replacement option that allows for a fixed (or attached) restoration like a natural tooth. A dental implant may be single or accommodate significant or complete tooth loss through fixed prosthetics like implant dentures and bridges.
Dental implants are prosthetic tooth roots made from biocompatible materials. This means they can integrate into the jawbone just like a tooth root. When the integration process finishes, your dentist attaches a replacement tooth, also called a dental crown, to the new root. Using four to six implants, we can also fix a denture or bridge to the implants.
