A dental implant consists of three main components:
- Dental crown: The dental crown is the visible part of the implant that resembles and functions like a natural tooth. It is in most cases made of porcelain or ceramic and is what you see when you smile or speak.
- Fixtur: The fixture is the central part of the implant and consists of a titanium screw that is drilled into the jawbone during a surgical procedure, this works much like an artificial root. It has an important function in ensuring the stability and durability of the implant.
- Distance: The distance is a coupling component that connects the dental crown to the fixture screw. It acts as an intermediate link and enables a strong and secure connection between the dental crown and the operated part of the jawbone.
Together, these three parts create a complete and functional dental implant structure that can replace lost teeth and restore chewing ability as well as the aesthetics of your smile.
