When you have missing teeth, some of the options at your disposal include full or partial dentures or a bridge. However, you should consider installing dental implants. They are the most natural options for teeth replacement and allow you to develop a healthy jawbone. The advent of cheap dental implant has helped in popularising the procedure. A dental implant is a screw-like structure that looks like the root of your teeth. They create a base for attaching an artificial tooth. Most implants are made of titanium because they are among the few sturdy metal material that does not cause adverse reactions with the gum tissue or the jawbone. 
 
The Procedure of Dental Implants 
 
You need to be healthy for your dentist to certify that you are the best candidate for a dental implant. Here, dental implants cost comes into consideration. Once certified, your dentist will schedule a procedure. The procedure depends on the kind of anaesthesia you will receive, amount of surgery, and your personal preferences. The dental implant price also varies depending on the material that a manufacturer uses to produce it. Apart from titanium, dental implants can be made of cobalt chromium and stainless steel. The procedure takes place over a couple of months and has three basic steps. 
 
Your dentist will schedule surgery to drill the implant into a jawbone. It takes up to 3 to 6 months for the implant to integrate into the jawbone. The next step is to attach a post. In some instances, your dentist will place the post and your implant simultaneously. The idea is to create a firm anchor to attach the artificial tooth. Your gum tissue will naturally grow to cover both the implant and the post. The last step is the crown attachment. After selecting the most suitable and fitting crown, the dentist will place the artificial tooth onto the post to secure it on the implant. Dental implants cost is also determined by the kind of crown that you choose. Crowns vary by their material and portability. You can opt for a removable or a non-removable artificial tooth. The choice between the two is at one's discretion but depending on factors such as ease of cleaning, convenience, and costs. Therefore, you need to make careful considerations before settling on your option.    
 
Caring for a Dental Implant 
 
Dentists perform dental implant procedures carefully over several months. Over this period, you will use your mouth for normal functioning. This exposes you to infections. This is why dentists need to determine if you are a good candidate for dental implants. If you are at risk for infections, then the dentist will not recommend dental implants. Essentially, there are three procedures that involve two surgeries. Each one of these surgeries can take hours. Therefore, to prevent infections, your dentist will issue firm instructions for you to maintain oral hygiene. The most basic recommendations are brushing your teeth twice in a day and daily flossing. If you take proper care of your implants, it will heal more quickly.  After healing, dental implants remain in your mouth permanently for the rest of your life.
