What is implantology?
Implantology is a discipline in dentistry dedicated to rehabilitate lost teeth using dental implants.
What is an implant?
A dental implant is an artificial root resembling a screw. It is made out of titanium which makes the integration of this artificial root possible into the human jaw bone. The dental implant is placed under local anaesthesia in the area where a tooth has been lost. When the implant is connected to the surrounding bone structures (after a couple of weeks (2-3 months)) the adequate restoration can be performed.
