Dental Implants

For over 40 years, dental implants have offered a long term solution to the problem of missing teeth. Scientifically researched and tested, dental implants replace one or more lost teeth or hold dentures securely in the mouth. The implant takes over the function of the tooth root and thus acts as a "post" for the denture. Last but not least, dental implants are becoming ever more popular because of the convincing success rates of over 96 %.

What is a dental implant?

Natural Tooth Dental Implant with crown

A dental implant is a small screw made of titanium, which is a well tolerated metal that integrates readily with the body. Intolerance occurs only in very rare cases.

A long term solution

The dental implant is inserted in the jaw bone by a short operation under local anaesthetic as an outpatient procedure. It knits painlessly with the bone, thus forming a solid basis for long-term stability.

When can an implant be used?

Missing single tooth: A dental implant and ceramic crown are the most aesthetic way of filling the gap. Grinding the neighbouring teeth is not necessary for this procedure.

Several missing teeth: A fixed bridge attached to dental implants ensures optimal stability and an aesthetically and functionally convincing result.

Completely toothless jaw: Dental implants can offer stability for anchoring a removable denture securely. The denture stays in place firmly in ordinary life and can be taken out of the mouth for cleaning and replaced with a simple firm fit. The alternatives are implant-borne rows of teeth that are screwed in place, offering the ultimate aesthetic appearance.
