A dental implant is a small post, usually made of titanium, that serves as a substitute for the root of the tooth. A connector, known as an abutment, is placed on, or built into, the top of the dental implant, which connects it to the replacement tooth. Finally, a crown, a replacement tooth, is custom fabricated to match your natural teeth, completing the dental implant.

 

At Brighton Dental we place Bio-Horizons® Implants which feature Laser-Lok® micro-channels that achieve superior osseointegration (bone connection) creating a physical connective tissue attachment and biologic seal!
