What is it?
An implant is a small titanium screw placed in the jawbone in place of a missing tooth's root. Once it fuses with the bone, a tooth is made on top and used just like a natural one.
Neighbouring teeth are not touched. Before planning, your bone is measured with X-rays and, if needed, a 3D scan. The procedure is done under local anaesthesia.
Who is it for?
- One or more missing teeth
- Anyone who wants to move from a removable denture to fixed teeth
- Anyone who does not want healthy teeth cut for a bridge
How does it work?
- Examination and 3D scan
- Implant placement
- Healing period
- Final tooth
Frequently asked questions
Does implant surgery hurt?
It is done under local anaesthesia, so you feel no pain during it. Mild swelling and tenderness for a few days afterwards is common and eases with the prescribed medication.
Can implants be placed at any age?
They can be placed for anyone whose bone growth is complete and whose general health allows it. If you have a condition such as diabetes, we plan together with your doctor.
