Did you lose your tooth? Is it better to implant teeth or to implant teeth? What is the difference?

Dental implant, also known as artificial dental implant, does not really plant natural teeth, but through medical methods, pure titanium metal with high compatibility with human bones is made into cylindrical or other shapes similar to root, and it is implanted into alveolar bone in edentulous area through minor surgery. 1 ~ 3 months later, when the artificial root and alveolar bone are closely combined, the porcelain crown is made on the artificial root.

There are two kinds of dentures, one is removable denture (also called complete denture) and the other is fixed denture (porcelain teeth). It needs to grind two teeth around the patient's missing teeth and install the crown together, that is, one tooth is missing and three crowns need to be installed, which is equivalent to building a bridge.

Relatively speaking, dental implants are obviously better.
