What are Dental Implants?
Dental implants or fixtures are cylinder-shaped posts that are implanted in the jawbone and are used as a substitute for the natural tooth’s root. Together with superstructure and prosthetic dental crown, they form a single unit for functional and aesthetic rehabilitation of one or more missing teeth. They are usually made of titanium alloy or pure titanium and must be bio-compatible and non-threatening to a patient’s health. Upon installing the dental implant, the objective is to create a contact between the outer surface of the implant and the surrounding bone tissue so that they can join together (the phenomenon is called “osseointegration”) and thus ensure the sustainability of the tooth restoration.
Before installing the implant, we examine the health of your teeth and gums, all pathological conditions are repaired and only after the treatment of the gums and teeth is done we can start the implantation. After a detailed X-ray diagnostics and precisely developed plan, we introduce you to the treatment plan.
