Implants are objects surgically inserted into the body.

Medical implants include pacemakers, artificial joints, and cochlear implants for hearing.

Cosmetic implants reshape features—breast implants and chin implants are common.

Dental implants are posts anchored in the jawbone to support artificial teeth.
