A single tooth implant is a standalone dental restoration that replaces a missing tooth with a natural-looking, functional alternative. The implant is a small titanium post embedded into the jawbone, acting as an artificial tooth root. Once integrated with the bone, a custom-made crown is attached to the implant, creating a seamless, durable replacement that blends with your natural teeth.
Unlike traditional bridges, a single tooth implant does not require support from surrounding teeth, making it a minimally invasive option that preserves your natural tooth structure.
