Dental implants are simply used to replace teeth. The implants are titanium posts that are surgically positioned into the jawbone under the gums. Once the implants integrate into the bone, the implants act as an anchor to fixate teeth or crowns. The crowns/teeth fixated to implants are made typically from porcelain or ceramic material custom made to mimic the color and shape of your natural teeth. These implants are as close to to natural teeth and function nearly the same, allowing you to speak clearly and eat nearly any food you like without worry.
