Implants are made of titanium and are placed in the area of the tooth normally occupied by the root. When integrated with the bone they act as a foundation for the dental crown. In some cases, implants can be used to attach dentures.
While high-tech in nature, dental implants are actually more tooth-saving than traditional bridgework, since implants don't rely on neighboring teeth for support.
Dental implants are strong and durable and can last many years.
