An implant is a man-made replacement for natural roots of teeth (foundation). This allows the Dentist to restore fixed teeth, which we see in the mouth. The doctor you are working with, may select from several categories of dental implants. This would depend on the information which he / she obtains from x-rays, models of your mouth, your specific needs, and general dental condition.
The ultimate goal is to replace and restore missing teeth into better function without losing more bone (foundation of teeth).
