Dental Implants – represent a modern method for restoring missing teeth. A dental implant functions as an artificial root that integrates securely into your jawbone.
- The period of 2 to 6 months is the time needed for the implant to fuse with the bone. Only after this integration are crowns, bridges, or removable dentures attached to the implants. Implantation restores both the appearance and chewing function of teeth.
To fully restore both the aesthetic and functional aspects in an edentulous (toothless) jaw, at least 6 implants are required to support a fixed (non-removable) prosthesis. Mini Implants are used during orthodontic treatment, as well as in children in conjunction with palatal expanders. Prosthetics on Implants – There are removable and non-removable constructions:
- A non-removable construction for an edentulous jaw is a bridge (made of metal-ceramic or zirconium).
- Removable constructions on implants provide stability and eliminate the need for special adhesives.
Sinus Lift and Bone Grafting – In cases where bone volume is insufficient, our implantologists use various bone augmentation methods. The approaches differ for the upper and lower jaws when bone deficiency is present.
Sinus lifts (open and closed): A bone grafting procedure is used in the molar region of the upper jaw.
- This involves lifting the floor of the maxillary sinus and filling the space with artificial bone to ensure successful placement of a dental implant The need for a sinus lift is determined by a computed tomography (CT) scan. Our experienced specialists use advanced techniques to enlarge and regenerate bone, creating a strong foundation for implants.
Implant Maintenance and Aftercare – Our professional team offers the highest quality resources for implant maintenance and follow-up care..
- Regular check-ups, deep cleaning, and personalized oral hygiene instructions are essential elements of the implant care program.
