How do Dental Implants Work?<\/h2>\n

Dental implants are titanium posts that are surgically inserted into your jawbone. After you heal from this process and the titanium fuses with your bone structure, your dentist will then permanently attach a crown, bridge attached to your permanent teeth (called abutments) or implant-supported dentures (permanent dentures).<\/p>\n

How do Dentures Work?<\/h2>\n

Dentures are removable appliances comprised of teeth and gums that mimic your natural ones. The teeth are usually made from either porcelain or acrylic resin, and the gums are made from a hardened wax that rests on a metal or resin plate.<\/p>\n
