Dental implants are biocompatible titanium replacements of a tooth’s root. The implant is accompanied by two additional components (abutment and crown), completing the restoration.
The first step in the process is comprised of placing the implant into bone followed by a healing period to allow for osseointegration, the formation of a direct interface between the implant and bone. Once achieved, the abutment is placed which serves as the attachment between the implant and crown.Contact our Cockeysville, MD office today to schedule your appointment with our experienced dental team.
