Dental implants are a great option to restore the missing tooth by substituting the root structure. Implants not only restore the optimal functioning of teeth, but also help to prevent further serious complications that can arise due to teeth loss. One of the first steps involved in the process is to prepare the implant site where the implant body is to be placed into the bone. Once placed the site is allowed to heal, so that a stable footing is provided for the replacement tooth. On complete healing, the final restoration is set into the implant and secured into place.
