implanted teeth

Refers to a method of repairing missing teeth that supports and retains the upper dental restoration based on the underlying structure implanted in the bone tissue. It consists of a lower part of a dental implant and an upper part of a dental prosthesis (implant-supported). It uses artificial materials (such as metal, ceramics, etc.) to make implants (generally similar to the root shape), is surgically implanted into tissue (usually the upper and lower jaw) and obtains solid retention support of bone tissue. Ways of connection support the upper dental restoration. Dental implants can achieve restoration effects that are very similar to the natural tooth function, structure, and aesthetics, and have become the first choice for more and more patients with missing teeth.
