Tooth Replacement
Dental implant
Dental implant is a minor surgical component that serves as an artificial tooth root. It is typically made of titanium and is placed into the jawbone to support dental prosthesis, such as crown, bridge or denture.
For the one who loses their tooth and looking for the tooth replacement, dental implants are often considered the best option, as they closely mimic natural teeth in functional and esthetic. However, some factors like bone quantity and underlying diseases should be considered and discussed with the dentist before.

All on 4 dental implant
The “All-on-4” dental implant procedure is a technique used to replace an entire arch of missing teeth with a fixed prosthesis supported by only four dental implants. This approach optimizes the available bone and allows for the attachment of a full set of upper or lower teeth. It’s often a quicker option compared to traditional implant-supported dentures, providing a more stable and natural-looking solution for individuals with significant tooth loss.

Implant retained denture
An implant-retained denture is a type of removable denture that is secured in the mouth with the support of dental implants. Unlike traditional dentures that rely on adhesives or suction for stability, implant-retained dentures attach to implants surgically placed in the jawbone. This enhances stability, prevents slipping, and improves overall functionality and comfort for individuals with significant tooth loss. The number of implants used can vary, but it’s a popular option for those seeking a more secure and reliable denture solution.
