Topeka Oral Surgery specializes in the placement of dental implants. The implant itself, a small screw post surgically placed into the jawbone, is crucial for stability. Typically crafted from a titanium alloy, the same material trusted in various medical implants like those for hips and knees. Titanium boasts exceptional durability and biocompatibility, minimizing the risk of allergic reactions and ensuring a secure fusion with the bone over time. This will NOT set off a metal detector in an airport!
