 IMPLANTSImplants is the procedure for placing artificial roots (fixtures)
into the jawbone where teeth are missing. These
roots are then used as abutments for holding the new crown
and bridgework. Implants are also referred to as third
generation teeth.
The procedure for placing implants is divided into five stages:
Pre-Implant finding out the best implant solution and
providing a temporary solution
Stage I Implant surgically placing the fixtures into the jawbone
Healing Period allowing 0 to 6 months for the fixtures to
osseointegrate
Stage II Implant surgically exposing the fixtures
Prosthetic making the crown and bridgework or clip-on denture.
