A dental implant is an artificial tooth root surgically fixed into the jawbone to hold a crown or dental bridge
in order to complete the structure of an artificial tooth. A tooth consists of a root and a crown. When you lose a tooth, an implant takes the place of the root, and then an artificial crown is placed. Dental implants can be made of titanium or ceramic material.
