Dental implantology is a specialized field of dentistry that deals with replacing missing teeth using dental implants. These implants are small, usually titanium screws that are placed in the jawbone, acting as artificial tooth roots. Once they are embedded in the bone, fixed or removable prosthetic restorations, such as crowns, bridges, or dentures, can be mounted on the implants, allowing for the restoration of chewing function and aesthetics.
