Understanding Osseointegration

Dentist NYC

Dental implants are used to safely and gently replace missing teeth. If you are missing one or more teeth, it is a terrific idea to consult with the best dentist in NYC about your treatment options. One of the most important steps of the dental implant procedure is a process that is commonly referred to as osseointegration. After your dentist has placed the initial titanium implant into your jaw, it will take about six months for the implant to fuse with the jaw bone. This phenomenon of bone fusing is referred to as osseointegration. It is important to allow plenty of time for this process to take place before applying permanent crowns over the implants, as there may be some shifting as implants settle into place.
