Titanium:
Dental Implants are root replacements made out of titanium–the same metal used by orthopedic surgeons
to replace hips and
knees. Titanium is well tolerated by the body and provides an anchor to which your dentist can directly attach your replacement tooth. If you are missing more than one tooth, a wide variety of dental implant replacement options can be used to help restore your bite and ability to chew, and return your smile and facial muscle tone to a healthier and more satisfactory state. Dental implant supported replacement teeth are the closest thing to having your own teeth back in your mouth again!
