Dental Implants

Dental implantation is the most advanced and reliable method for restoring lost teeth.

What is dental implantation?

Dental implantation is the most advanced and reliable method of restoring teeth after loss. It is a long-term and aesthetic alternative to bridges or removable plates. During the procedure, an implant made of titanium or other bioinert material is screwed into the jawbone, replacing the root of the lost tooth. A prosthetic structure is attached to it, usually a zirconium or ceramic crown.

Why choose implants?

Dental implants perform important functions that ensure not only aesthetics but also oral health:
  • Protects against jawbone loss – after tooth loss, the bone begins to deteriorate, and the implant stimulates it like a natural root.
  • Stops tooth "migration" – adjacent teeth do not shift or crowd together.
  • No grinding of adjacent teeth – unlike when restoring teeth with a bridge.
  • Natural aesthetics – the color, shape, and transparency of the crown are comparable to natural teeth.
  • Strength and comfort – implant-supported teeth do not move, making them suitable for stronger chewing.
  • Preservation of palate sensation – unlike with dental plates, the palate remains free.

How is implantation performed?

Evaluation

X-ray and 3D scanning examinations are performed to assess the condition of the bone.

Preparation

If necessary, bone grafting or periodontal treatment is performed.

Implantation

Implants are surgically inserted under local anesthesia.

Healing

The implant fully integrates within 6 months (faster when using the SLActive surface).

Prosthetics

A permanent crown or bridge is attached to the implant.

Conditions for successful implantation

Before implantation:

  • Thorough oral hygiene.
  • Existing periodontitis or caries is treated.
  • Quitting smoking (smoking increases the risk of complications by 2–3 times).

After implantation:

  • Recommendations are followed during the healing period.
  • Individual care products are used (special brushes, rinsing liquids).
  • Regular professional hygiene and check-ups are performed.

How long do implants last?

According to the latest international studies, as many as 94–98% of implants last longer than 10 years, and with proper care, they can last a lifetime.

Why „Straumann“?

The Dentus dental clinic uses implants from Swiss manufacturer „Straumann“, one of the world's most thoroughly researched and scientifically proven systems:
  • SLActive® surface – a coating that accelerates healing by up to 50%, allowing for faster prosthetic restoration.
  • Roxolid® titanium alloy – extremely strong, but with a thinner structure, allowing implants to be used even in areas with limited bone.
  • More than 30 years of research and hundreds of thousands of successful implantations worldwide.

Stages of dental implantation

From consultation to a new tooth.

1. Initial consultation

X-rays and/or 3D images are taken, the condition of the bone and general health risks are assessed, and a treatment plan is drawn up.
1 visit

2. Preparation (if necessary)

Oral hygiene, periodontal treatment, bone augmentation if bone volume is insufficient.
2–6 weeks.

3. Implantation

The implant is inserted under local anesthesia. If possible, a temporary crown is placed immediately (same-day implant).
1 visit

4. Healing / osseointegration

The implant fuses firmly with the bone. The use of SLActive implants can shorten healing time.
up to 6 months

6. Control

After prosthetics, a review is performed and the patient is instructed on care.
After 1–3 months.

Frequently asked questions about implantation

No, the procedure is performed under local anesthesia. Most patients experience only minor discomfort after the procedure, which quickly subsides.

Yes, in some cases, "single-visit" implantation is used – the implant is screwed into the same place immediately after extraction. This depends on the condition of the bone.

A bone augmentation procedure can be performed, allowing the implant to be successfully inserted later.

Yes, age is not a contraindication – the most important thing is overall health and sufficient jawbone density.

Dental implantation is a long-lasting, aesthetic, and functionally advanced solution that allows you to restore your smile naturally and reliably. Using scientifically proven Straumann implants makes this procedure even safer and more effective. Consult your dentist to find out whether implantation is the right solution for you.
