Titanium's special property of fusing to bone, called osseointegration ("osseo" - bone; "integration" - fusion or joining with), is the biological basis of dental implant success. That's because when teeth are lost, the bone that supported those teeth is lost too. Placing dental implants stabilizes bone, preventing its loss. Along with replacing lost teeth, implants help maintain the jawbone's shape and density. This means they also support the facial skeleton and, indirectly, the soft tissue structures - gum tissues, cheeks and lips. Dental implants help you eat, chew, smile, talk and look completely natural. This functionality imparts social, psychological and physical well-being.
