Implants Following a tooth loss, the surrounding jawbone gradually resorbs due to functional insufficiency. This process continues throughout life. However, it can be stopped by installing an implant into a bone, and the jaw can retrieve its normal function and appearance.
Implants are the best solution regardless of the cause of the tooth loss (dental caries, paradontopathy, trauma...). Unlike dentures attached to gums, or a bridge that uses the adjacent teeth as carriers, implants are installed into a jaw by simulating a dental root’s natural function – carrying dental restoration independently. An implant is a screw made of titanium, material that our body accepts, which is fused into jawbone where it is installed.
An implant is made of two parts. An implant body is shaped like a dental root, so-called ?root-like’, with caps which are used to screw it into the bone. The whole implant body is installed into the bone. It ?Osseo integrates’, i.e. it integrates easily with the bone tissue. Dental restoration carrier or abutment is anchored on the implant body, and is therefore outside the bone and is shaped like a sanded tooth. Final prosthetics, most frequently a ceramic crown, is cemented or screwed into the restoration carrier on the implant. Apart from ceramic crowns or bridges, implants can also support removable dentures. This way, a denture is firmly supported by a jaw when chewing or speaking, which gives patients significant comfort and security. Implanting procedures have become standard and common in everyday practice. Our surgery is proud of its enviable, perhaps even unique 15 years of experience in this area. There is a great number of implanting systems today. However, we only use implants made by the best known and the most reliable manufacturers. |
