Natural Appearance: Implants look and feel like your natural teeth, providing a seamless and aesthetically pleasing result.
Durability: With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime, making them a cost-effective long-term solution.
Improved Function: Dental implants restore your ability to chew and speak properly, enhancing your overall quality of life.
Bone Health: Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss that often occurs with missing teeth.
Stability: Unlike dentures, implants are securely anchored in the jaw, eliminating issues with slipping or discomfort.
What are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are a permanent solution for replacing missing teeth. They consist of a titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone, acting as a root for the replacement tooth. Once the implant has integrated with the bone, a custom-made crown is attached to the post, providing a natural-looking and functional tooth.
What are Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns, also known as caps, are custom-made restorations that cover and protect damaged or decayed teeth. Crowns restore the tooth’s shape, size, and strength, while also improving its appearance. They can be made from various materials, including porcelain, ceramic, and metal.
Benefits of Dental Crowns
Protection: Crowns protect weakened teeth from further damage or decay.
Restoration: They restore the function and appearance of damaged or misshapen teeth.
Durability: Crowns are designed to withstand the forces of chewing and biting, providing long-lasting results.
Aesthetic Improvement: Porcelain and ceramic crowns can be color-matched to your natural teeth, providing a seamless look.

Dental Implant Placement
The dental implant procedure involves the following steps:
Surgical Placement: The titanium post is surgically placed into the jawbone. This procedure is performed under local anesthesia to ensure your comfort.
Healing Period: The implant needs time to integrate with the jawbone, a process called osseointegration. This typically takes a few months.
Abutment Placement: Once the implant has integrated, an abutment is attached to the post. This serves as a connector between the implant and the crown.
Crown Placement: A custom-made crown is crafted to match your natural teeth and attached to the abutment, completing the restoration.
Dental Crown Procedure
The process for getting a dental crown involves:
Tooth Preparation: The damaged tooth is reshaped to make room for the crown. If necessary, decay is removed, and the tooth is built up to support the crown.
Impressions: Impressions of your teeth are taken to create a custom-fit crown.
Temporary Crown: A temporary crown is placed over the prepared tooth while your permanent crown is being made.
Permanent Crown Placement: Once the custom crown is ready, it is cemented onto the prepared tooth, restoring its function and appearance.
