Consider Dental Implants
A modern dental implant is a titanium screw that is placed in the bone of a jaw and serves as a replacement for the root of missing tooth. Dental implants are an ideal option for patients with good oral hygiene who lost teeth due to periodontitis, unsuccessful treatment of the tooth, trauma or any other reason.
What can be done with dental implants?
- Compensation of one or more teeth without grinding adjacent teeth.
- Creating dental bridges in cases where a patient has been forced to wear mobile dentures, due to a loss of several teeth.
- Dental implants can also serve as dentures stabilizers.
Benefits of dental implants compared to conventional dental bridges and prostheses
In every possible way, dental implants represent a better solution for the replacement of missing teeth.
- Aesthetics: the look and feel of implants is identical to that of natural teeth. Since the implant is firmly matched with the jawbone, bone loss and gum withdrawal are prevented, which often occur in dental bridges and under the prosthetics. No one will be able to notice that you don’t have your own teeth.
- Keeping the rest of the teeth: dental implants do not in any way impair the quality of the remaining teeth that occurs when making dental bridges. The healthier your teeth are, the greater the long-term benefit for the health of your mouth.
- Comfort and confidence: using dental implants you will be able to talk again, eat with comfort and greater confidence. They allow you to say goodbye to the denture that moved in your mouth, dropped out and created an unpleasant feeling of a foreign body.
- Reliability: in our clinic, therapeutic success can be guaranteed in the long term because the warranty period of the most advanced dental implants is 10 years.
Are you a candidate for the placement of dental implants?
It is possible to place a dental implant to anyone and there are no specific contraindications. The ideal candidate for dental implants is a patient with good general health and health of the oral cavity. For the implant to be fitted, it is necessary to have a sufficient amount of quality jaw bone with which the implant is firmly matched.
Indications for the installation of dental implants:
- the replacement of one tooth: if you miss one tooth you can compensate it by putting one implant and a ceramic dental crown that is placed on it.
- more teeth replacement: if you miss more teeth, you have the possibility of implanting that will serve as dental bridges
- Compensation of all lost teeth: it is possible to make dental bridges that compensate for all teeth or create comfortable and stable dental overdentures.
What can you expect during the intervention?
The intervention is carried out according to a strictly prescribed protocol, which guarantees the preservation of the bone as well as surrounding tissues. The procedure is performed in local anesthesia and it is painless. For patients who are under stress or have a fear of intervention, we use analgosedation. After surgery, in the first 2-3h there is a mild pain for which you can use painkillers.
What can you expect after treatment?
As your natural teeth require the maintenance of good oral hygiene and regular control with the dentist, dental implants require the same or a higher level of care and maintenance, so regular washing of the teeth (implants) and the use of the dental floss is a must.
After the treatment, you will be scheduled for a checkup with a dentist where we will monitor the health of your teeth and gums and eliminate possible side effects.
