What do you long for when you have already lost one or more of your teeth? The answer is very simple. You want your sense of comfort back, you no longer want to smile in a way that is contrary to nature, you want to eat, speak and laugh with confidence.
But is this possible? The answer is clearly YES! With the help of today's modern dental implants, all of this is possible. Let's take a look at why it is worth choosing a dental implant in the event of tooth loss:
A dental implant is a long-term tooth replacement
This is perhaps the most serious reason for opting for a dental implant. The dental implant system offers a lifetime guarantee. Our dentists are highly qualified and experienced oral surgeons who insert the artificial tooth root painlessly and in a short time. Of course, dental care and proper oral hygiene are essential prerequisites for the lifespan of dental implants. But this is natural, because healthy teeth should also be kept in good condition.
A dental implant is insurance for a stable and fixed dental prosthesis. Dental implant-supported tooth replacements correspond to your own healthy teeth in terms of both aesthetics and function. This means that you can smile again without any restrictions.
The duration of treatment is short
Dental implantation is now a routine procedure that is carried out under sterile conditions. The operation, including preparations, takes about 40 minutes. For complete healing after implantation, however, a healing period of approx. 4 months in the upper jaw and approx. 3 months in the lower jaw should be observed. These healing times help to ensure that the dental implant grows stably into the body and is able to hold a denture in place.
Bone loss can be prevented with a dental implant
A tooth gap is not just an aesthetic problem. There are many physiological reasons for not delaying the replacement of missing teeth. If the jaw remains edentulous in the long term and it is no longer used for chewing, the bone substance will deteriorate due to lack of load. This can lead to a situation where the condition of the bone tissue no longer allows dental implantation. However, if the implantation is carried out in good time, the bone substance remains trained and there is no need to be afraid of bone loss.
The dentures are comfortable to wear, the chewing function and aesthetics give a feeling of naturalness
A number of patients with a dental implant are grateful for the feeling of having their own teeth back. This is partly because a dental implant has a similar structure to your own tooth: It is fixed in the bone in exactly the same way, is made from a particularly tissue-friendly material, and in terms of shape, color and function, it reproduces the feeling of your own tooth.
