The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The basis for modern dental implants is a biological process called osseointegration, in which materials such as titanium or zirconia form an intimate bond to the bone.
- The implant fixture is first placed so that it is likely to osseointegrate, then a dental prosthetic is added.
- A variable amount of healing time is required for osseointegration before either the dental prosthetic is attached to the implant or an abutment is placed which will hold a dental prosthetic or crown.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Dental implant article was read about 95,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 86 and blocks with 95: each hit it takes is cut by 38 %.
