The Anatomy Of A Dental Implant
There are three parts that make up a dental implant.
- The implant: a titanium screw, which is surgically placed into the patient’s jaw bone where the original tooth used to be
- The abutment: a small piece that ensures a snug fit
- Crown: the top part of the tooth, which is attached to the implant and matches your natural teeth
