We deal with dental implants. The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia and therefore does not involve any pain. An implant is an imitation of a tooth root. It is a type of dental screw that is screwed directly into the bone through a small hole in the gum. The tooth is then restored - depending on the number of cavities - in the form of crowns or prosthetic bridges.
A number of examinations are carried out before the implant is placed, and hygiene procedures are also required, including tooth sandblasting.
When are dental implants used?
The use of dental implants is very broad. It is a modern technology for the reconstruction of natural teeth that have been lost due to decay, periodontal disease or mechanical trauma. Implant placement is considered to be the most effective treatment for single missing teeth. However, in addition to this, the procedure can also be carried out for those with larger missing teeth or even complete toothlessness.
Benefits of dental implants
It should be noted that for the implantation of dental implants It is not only for aesthetic reasons. Missing teeth do indeed have a negative effect on appearance, but above all they result in a deterioration of the oral cavity, causing difficulties with activities such as chewing, grinding and even speaking. For this reason, the reconstruction of lost teeth is extremely important. The use of dental implants eliminates chewing problems and restores full oral function.
We use high quality dental implants They provide convenience and comfort - patients can chew and bite as they would with natural teeth without feeling any discomfort. In addition, one of the greatest advantages of dental implants is their exceptional durability. Manufactured from titanium, a biocompatible material that the body treats as its own part, they minimise the occurrence of atrophy, i.e. bone loss around the tooth.
Implant treatment process
Implant treatment begins with a dental consultation, during which the specialist assesses the patient's health and performs imaging examinations. He then proceeds to place the implant under local anaesthetic. The procedure usually takes several hours. After the procedure, rehabilitation is necessary, including follow-up appointments and possible adjustments. The duration of the entire process may vary depending on the individual needs of the person undergoing treatment. It is important to be aware of possible complications, such as infections or problems with implant integration. For this reason, it is advisable to choose proven facilities offering dental implants.
Care and follow-up after treatment
Once dental implants have been placed, it is important to maintain good oral hygiene and to have regular check-ups. This allows you to monitor the health of your implants and avoid complications. Follow your doctor's instructions for aftercare. The Smile Clinic offers support services for patients after the procedure, such as consultations or professional cleaning of the implants. Taking care of your oral health and working with a specialist will allow you to enjoy the durability and functionality of the implants for many years.
