Dental Implants
A dental implant is an effective replacement for a missing tooth. It can be placed in both the upper and lower jaw and is made of biocompatible titanium material.
In cases where nature hasn’t blessed us with such white and beautiful teeth, or if they have darkened over time due to poor lifestyle habits or certain medications, the most advanced dental whitening methods can help.
What is the Biggest Advantage of Implants Compared to Prosthetic Solutions?
The loss of one or more teeth can be resolved either with implants (implantology) or prosthetically (bridges). Implantology is greatly preferred because it does not damage the adjacent teeth, which would need to be ground down and included in the bridge during prosthetic treatment.
Frequently Asked Question: Is Dental Implant Placement Possible at Your Clinic?
The first necessary step is to take a 3D scan of the area where the implant is planned. Based on the three-dimensional scan, the exact height and width of the bone, as well as important anatomical structures that must not be damaged during the placement, can be measured.
How Long Does the Implant Procedure Take, and Is It Painful?
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and is completely painless. It usually takes about thirty minutes.
Post-Operative Care
After the placement of a dental implant, the patient receives detailed instructions on how to behave during the postoperative period, maintain oral hygiene, eat, and which medications to use.
When is the Prosthetic Work Done on the Implant?
After three months, the osseointegration process (the acceptance of the implant) is complete, and the prosthetic work on the implant can begin. An original appropriate abutment is screwed into the implant, over which the crown is cemented.
