Implantátumos

Implantátumos is a term used to describe something related to or involving implants. This most commonly refers to dental implants, which are artificial tooth roots surgically placed into the jawbone. These implants provide a stable foundation for replacement teeth, such as crowns, bridges, or dentures, offering a long-term solution for missing teeth. The process typically involves an initial consultation, implant placement surgery, a healing period, and finally, the attachment of the prosthetic tooth.

The term can also be applied more broadly to other medical implants. This could include orthopedic implants like artificial joints (hip or knee replacements), pacemakers to regulate heart rhythm, cochlear implants to restore hearing, or breast implants for cosmetic or reconstructive purposes. In all these cases, "implantátumos" signifies a connection to the surgical insertion of a foreign body into the body to restore function, improve appearance, or treat a medical condition. The success of implantátumos procedures often depends on factors such as the patient's overall health, the quality of the implant material, and the skill of the medical professional performing the procedure.
