Implant Placement
The titanium post is surgically inserted into the jawbone, where it will integrate over time to provide a stable base for the new tooth.

Restoration and Recovery
Once the dental implant has fused with the bone, a custom-made crown is attached, completing the restoration and giving you a natural-looking smile.
