A beautiful and healthy smile is the key to greater self-confidence. But what if one or more teeth are missing? Modern technologies offer the perfect solution – dental implants. They not only restore tooth function but also ensure a natural look.
What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is an artificial tooth root made of biocompatible titanium. It is placed into the jawbone and serves as a base for attaching a crown, bridge, or denture. This approach allows for the replacement of missing teeth without affecting adjacent healthy teeth, unlike traditional bridges. Find out more on our implantology page.
5 Reasons to Choose Dental Implants
- Aesthetics: Implants look just like natural teeth – no one will notice the difference.
- Durability: With proper care, implants can last for decades, sometimes even a lifetime.
- Functionality: Full restoration of chewing ability allows you to enjoy your favorite foods without restrictions.
- Comfort: Unlike removable dentures, implants are firmly anchored in the jaw and require no special maintenance.
- Health: Dental implants prevent jawbone deterioration that can occur after tooth loss.
How Does the Implantation Process Work?
- Consultation and Diagnosis: The first step includes an oral examination, X-ray diagnostics, and, if necessary, a 3D scan. This helps assess the jawbone condition and plan the treatment.
- Implant Placement: Using modern guided implantology, the implant is precisely and gently placed into the jawbone. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and takes 30 minutes to 1 hour – painless and safe.
- Healing Phase: Over the next 3-6 months, the implant integrates with the jawbone (osseointegration).
- Crown Attachment: After healing, a permanent crown is attached to the implant, perfectly mimicking a natural tooth.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is implant placement painful?
No, the procedure is performed under local anesthesia and is completely painless. Mild discomfort may occur after surgery but usually disappears within a few days.
2. Are implants suitable for me?
Most patients can receive implants. The only limitation might be insufficient bone volume, which can be corrected with bone grafting.
3. How do I care for my implants?
Implants require the same care as natural teeth: regular brushing, flossing, and biannual dental check-ups.
