Dental Implants

Implant treatment is the most rational way to get new teeth because of the problems you are having with your natural teeth. Apart from being considered the closest alternative to natural teeth, implant treatment is highly preferred as it satisfies almost everyone who seeks treatment.

IMPLANTS

A dental implant is a tooth replacement that is permanently inserted (= implanted) into the jawbone. However, many do not know that the complete implant (as it will be worn later) usually consists of three parts: the artificial tooth root made of titanium, which is anchored in the jawbone instead of the tooth root, an implant structure (abutment) and the visible denture.

Implants can be used to replace individual teeth and also to close larger gaps without having to grind down the healthy neighboring teeth. Implant-supported dentures are supported by the jawbone and held in their correct position. By inserting implants, fixed anchor points can also be created in the edentulous jaw, to which dentures can be firmly attached.

Dental implants can also preserve bone shape and quality. Especially if several teeth are already missing, implants can be used to achieve aesthetically and functionally optimal dentures.

Implants are artificial tooth roots made of titanium that are planted in the jawbone. After an average healing period of between 3 and 6 months, the implants are connected to the crowns from an aesthetic point of view.

ALL-ON-4 / ALL-ON-6 

The All-on-4/ All-on-6 concepts are one of the most exciting methods in implantology, in which a prosthesis is attached to just four/six implants. The keyword “fixed teeth in one day” becomes real.

All-on-4/ All-on-6 are new and innovative treatment concepts for the treatment of dental implants, in which only four/six implants are placed in the jaw. In order to withstand the best possible load, the two implants at the back are inserted at an angle into the arch of the jaw.

In contrast to conventional implant systems, restorations with All-on-4/All-on-6 are possible within a very short time. In concrete terms, this means that the patient can leave the practice with new fixed teeth after just one session.

The small number of only four/six implants that are anchored in the jaw shortens the treatment time enormously. In terms of quality, All-on-4/ All-on-6 impresses with high-quality materials, good body compatibility and convincing durability.

Dental implants usually take three to five months to heal. In some cases, however, immediate or earlier loading of the dental implants is possible.

PROCESS OF THE TREATMENT

Dental implants are usually placed in the jaw in an outpatient procedure under local anesthesia. These then heal unencumbered until, after a few weeks or months, they are fitted with a dental prosthesis supported by implants, such as a crown or bridge.

This intervention consists of 4 steps:

1st step: opening of the mucous membrane

2nd step: screwing the implant into the bone

3rd step: inserting a cover screw into the implant for the healing time

4th step: the subsequent suture.

MINI- IMPLANTS

The small mini-implants are particularly suitable for patients who suffer from complete toothlessness but do not have time for a lengthy implantation – for professional reasons, for example. In addition, this type of dentures is also very popular with patients with jawbone decline. Because thanks to the small diameter of the mini-implants, they can also cope with little bone material and still sit firmly in the jaw. Even if you already have a prosthesis and it hurts, rubs or rubs, you can help with the mini implants and the full prosthesis fits perfectly.

Due to the small diameter of the mini-implants, the mucous membrane does not have to be opened over a large area, which means that injuries in the oral cavity are minimal. In addition, the small mini dental implants can be used in almost any jaw – no matter how narrow it may be. Therefore, our dentists use mini-implants in particular when the bone has already receded and no bone augmentation is desired. Since the implant is inserted into the jawbone in just one step, only a minimally invasive procedure is usually necessary and the individually adapted prosthesis can be incorporated immediately.

Our dentists will be happy to advise you on the subject of mini implants and clarify whether such an operation is an option for you. If you are interested, please contact our practice at any time, because we want you to feel good and be able to smile with confidence even with a prosthesis.

BONE AUGMENTATION

The success of an implantation depends less on the design of the implant and the surgical procedure than on the bone into which the implant body is embedded. The more bone there is, the better. Before an implant surgeon makes the decision to place an implant, he will assess very carefully whether there is enough bone. If the bone loss is so severe that an immediate implantation is not possible, it may be possible to increase the bone mass in these jaw sections first. If there is insufficient bone mass, this can be rebuilt before implanting fixed dentures. This is called “bone building” or “augmentation”.

In order to ensure long-term therapeutic success when inserting artificial tooth roots, the dental implants, a minimum amount of bone substance is necessary. The denser the bone substance and the more volume of jawbone there is, the higher the chances of success with implants. There should be at least two millimeters around an implant so that it can heal safely and firmly.

BONE REPLACEMENT MATERIAL

Modern dentistry uses high-performance bone replacement material with which good results can be achieved in jawbone regeneration. These are very similar in composition to human bones. In addition, there is no need for an additional procedure to remove your own bone.

There are both synthetic materials and substances composed of natural components, including animal bones, algae and coral.

In order to be able to use bone replacement material for the augmentation, a certain amount of your own natural bone substance must be available so that new formation can start from it.

SINUS LIFT

The bone in the upper jaw has then receded so far that an implantation is no longer possible. In order to obtain sufficient substance for a fixed implant, we increase the bone thickness in the upper jaw. To do this, the implantologist inserts special bone replacement material into the cavity of the maxillary sinus. After around six months, the bone is so stable that it can carry an implant without further complications.

3D X-RAY

The diagnostic value of 3D diagnostics is significantly higher for the dentist, since a three-dimensional image makes it possible to look “behind” the tooth. The image can also be rotated to view the structures of the jaw and teeth from different sides.

With the help of a 3D X-Ray, we have the opportunity to see exactly and above all three-dimensionally how much bone is still available for the implant. This allows the implantation process to be carried out even more precisely and safely. With two-dimensional images, the tooth can only be viewed as a kind of photo from one side.
