Here is how it works. Your AAID implant dentist will place the implant into the jaw where the teeth used to be. Over a period of a few weeks the implant will stabilize and provide solid support for your new crown. A post sometimes called an abutment, is screwed into the implant – a crown will be shaped and personalized not your mouth and it will be attached that the abutment, if you are missing several teeth in the Sam area a series of connected crowns can be fastened to the implant and above it creating a stable permanent solution.
