A comprehensive analysis of the detailed process of dental implants

Fixed dental implants are divided into three parts: implants (artificial tooth roots), abutments (connectors) and crowns. If our teeth are compared to a tree, then the implant is equivalent to the root of the tree, the abutment is equivalent to the trunk, and the crown is the luxuriant branches and leaves.
1. Implanting the implant
Connecting to the implant with screws.
2. Installing the abutment
The implant is a highly precise screw structure. Its external threads and micro-surface structures that have been physically and chemically treated are in contact with the gum bone, guiding the gum bone cells to grow to the implant surface, so as to achieve the effect of the implant combining with the gum bone to bear the chewing force. The internal hollow surface exposed in the mouth has not only a threaded structure but also an anti-rotation structure, which effectively guarantees its stability.
3. Installing the crown
The abutment that matches the implant is inserted into the implant and connected and retained by the central screw, just like letting "a big tree grow a trunk". Finally, a crown is installed on the base, allowing "branches and leaves to grow from the trunk", and an implant that looks like a real tooth is completed.
