Understanding Dental Implants
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots surgically placed into the jawbone to support prosthetic teeth.
Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, dental implants provide a stable and durable foundation for replacement teeth, mimicking the natural structure of the teeth.
1. Osseointegration :
The key to the success of dental implants lies in osseointegration:
This process involves the implant fusing with the jawbone, creating a secure anchor for the replacement teeth.
Dr. Khaled Al Sayed specializes in ensuring the optimal osseointegration of implants for long-lasting results.
2. Preservation of Jawbone Density :
Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss:
Traditional tooth replacement options do not provide this stimulation, leading to gradual jawbone atrophy.
Dr. Khaled Al Sayed emphasizes the importance of preserving jawbone density for overall oral health.
