Dental implants are nothing new. They have been used to permanently replace teeth since the mid 60s.
The Astra Tech Implant Systemâ„¢ has been on the market over 20 years. Based on years of extensive research, we have developed a unique dental implant system that provides a secure anchor for new, natural-looking teeth.
A small titanium screw is inserted into
your jawbone. Titanium is a metal accepted
by the body and heals together with the bone
tissue to form a new, stable tooth root.

An abutment is a ceramic or titanium component
that ensures a secure fit between the dental implant
and the crown.
Once the dental implant and the abutment are
in place, your dental professional fits the crown,
the bridge or the prosthesis.
