What is a dental implant?
An implant is a titanium screw placed in the jaw to replace a missing tooth, topped with a prosthesis. It is the closest permanent solution to a natural tooth.
Smile design and crowns
- Zirconia crowns: natural look and durability.
- Veneers: thin porcelain shells for an aesthetic smile.
- Hollywood smile: a holistic design balancing color, shape and symmetry.
The treatment journey
After an initial exam and imaging, a treatment plan is created. Implant fusion (osseointegration) can take a few months; temporary prosthetics keep aesthetics intact meanwhile.
