What are Dental Implants made of?
Apr 30th, 2009 by Dr. Kourosh Maddahi DDS
The dental implant procedure starts when titanium cylinders are secured to the jawbone. The cylinders are used to support the new replacement teeth. Titanium has been found to be the best material for dental implants because it integrates naturally into the bone. This makes the dental implants structurally and functionally stable, which allows the patient to chew like normal. For more information on implants, contact our office.
