Osseointegration at Its Best

Thanks to further advances in modern technology in osseointegration, root-form implants have become the most popular dental implants in the world. So popular, in fact, that most tools, softwares, and upcoming research and development are focused to improve and enhance root-form implants.

Root-form implants mimic real-life teeth. It has the rigidity and functionality of natural healthy teeth. The root-form implant consists of three parts: the implant, the abutment,and the crown.

A crucial component of the root-form implant is of course the implant screw itself. These "screws" are made of the bio-compatible metal, titanium. Instead of naturally rejecting foreign objects, the human body accepts titanium-- allowing it to heal and integrate around the titanium.

After the placement of the titanium implant, a healing period of up to six months is required for the osseointegration
(osseo = bone + integration) to occur. Once healing is completed, the implant will be exposed in a minor procedure. Then the abutments is installed on to the implant. The abutment becomes a supporting structure under the crown.

Finally, a matching crown (artificial teeth) is fabricated by the lab to integrate seamlessly with the rest of the existing teeth. The crown is ultimately placed permanently on to the abutment. The result is perfectly matching, natural-feeling, and beautiful teeth restoration.

Root-form dental implant could be used for single-tooth restoration or even a full mouth restoration. When a full mouth restoration requires root-form dental implant, only a few implants is required to support the full-mouth prosthesis.
