Implantology is the field of dentistry dedicated to the rehabilitation of tooth loss through implants. If you're missing a tooth, the implant will do it. With its cylindrical shape and in biocompatible titanium material, the implant (metallic pin) replaces the root of an extracted natural tooth. 

With a natural appearance, a ceramic or zirconia crown is placed over the post, providing the perfect functionality of a tooth. It can last for many years if careful oral hygiene and regular dental appointments are maintained.

In the case of patients who have little bone in the area where the implant will be installed, a bone graft can help to replace the lost bone, in order to stimulate regeneration. This process can take up to 12 months, depending on person to person.
