Single tooth replacement
Single tooth replacement refers to placement of dental implant to replace missing or damaged tooth root. The implant attaches itself to the jawbone and acts as a new root to the crown which is fixed on to it. Implants are immediate, long-lasting solution which improves general and oral health of the individual.
Benefits of single tooth replacement:
*Looks and feels like natural tooth
*Immediate fixed teeth on same day or next day
* No need to sacrifice the structure of the remaining natural teeth
*The jaw bone is better preserved
*Easy to clean
