An artificial tooth that is anchored in the gums or jawbone to replace a missing tooth.
Dental implants look like natural teeth and are normally made of titanium at the root.
The implant process takes about six months overall. The tooth/teeth must be created to fit the individual, implanted into the mouth and anchored to the jawbone. Then, a permanent crown is put on the implant and it looks like a normal tooth.
