- Implant Placement: The dental implant, which is a titanium post, is surgically inserted into the jawbone. This post serves as the foundation for the crown.
- Healing and Osseointegration: Over several months, the jawbone fuses with the implant in a process called osseointegration, providing a stable anchor for the crown.
- Abutment Placement: Once the implant has integrated with the bone, an abutment is attached to the implant to connect the crown.
- Crown Placement: A custom-made crown, designed to match your natural teeth, is securely attached to the abutment, completing your new smile.
