Dental implants are permanent titanium metal implants that replace missing teeth.
Most conventional dental implant systems use a two-stage implementation process. Later, a second surgery is performed to prepare the implanted component for prosthetic restoration with a replacement false tooth. Recently, dental implant surgeons have begun to use single-stage implant systems that eliminate the second surgical procedure and simplify the prosthetic restoration procedure for both the patient and the dental clinician.
