About this treatment

Treatment details

Treatment

About the treatment

A complete dental implant process under a doctor’s supervision: from diagnosis to placement of the finished tooth.

🔬 Diagnostics and treatment plan

The final cost is determined by the clinician’s assessment of the 3D examination. We then prepare your individual treatment plan.

🦷 Implant placement

A comfortable procedure under anaesthesia using quality implants. Procedure, healing, stay and follow-up times vary by person and treatment plan. Under normal conditions: ⏱ 20–40 minutes per implant.

🔄 Healing and follow-up

An individual schedule is prepared after the clinician’s assessment; additional visits or changes to the plan may be needed. Generally, the 2–6 month healing period includes clinical follow-up and regular guidance.

👑 Final stage

The crown is placed, completing an aesthetic, functional tooth.

Guide

What dental implants are and when they are needed

What is a dental implant and when is it needed?

A dental implant is a modern way to replace a missing tooth: an artificial root is placed in the bone and a new tooth is fixed on top.

It can be used when one, several or all teeth are missing, restoring chewing function and the natural appearance of the smile.

👉 Implant treatment helps preserve bone volume and avoids preparing neighbouring healthy teeth.

What is a dental implant?

An implant is a small structure placed in the jawbone to support the future tooth.

• Implant: placed in the bone, it acts as a root.

• Abutment: connects the implant and crown.

• Crown: the visible part of the tooth.

How does treatment proceed?

• CT assessment and an individual treatment plan.

• Implant placement according to the surgical protocol.

• Osseointegration period (usually 2–6 months). Procedure, healing, stay and follow-up times vary by person and treatment plan; additional visits or plan changes may be needed.

• Fixation of the permanent crown or restoration.

In certain clinical situations, accelerated implant treatment with temporary loading may be possible.

What a dental implant consists of

Main components of the system:

An implant restoration consists of three elements:

• Implant: placed in the bone, it acts as a root.

• Abutment: connects the implant and crown.

• Crown: the visible part of the tooth.

👉 Precision in every component directly affects comfort, appearance and the lifespan of the restoration.

How does the complete system work?

• The implant integrates with the bone (osseointegration).

• The abutment is secured according to the gum profile.

• A crown that restores shape and chewing is placed.

The result is a stable, functional tooth with a natural appearance.

Why this matters before treatment:

Before treatment, a CT assessment is performed to select the right restoration type, number of implants and prosthetic protocol.

Differences between implants: brands, quality, and timing

Are there differences between implants?

Yes, there are differences.

However, the brand is only one part of the outcome.

👉 The main factors in success are correct diagnosis, the doctor’s experience and an appropriate treatment plan.

What affects quality:

• Implant surface: affects the speed of osseointegration.

• Design and thread structure: affect primary stability.

• Connection precision: reduces micromovement and the risk of complications.

Integration times:

Procedure, healing, stay and follow-up times vary by person and treatment plan. Standard: 3–6 months.

• Under suitable conditions, modern systems may allow a shorter period.

• Early loading may be possible with good primary stability.

Timing also depends on bone density, the treatment area and general health.

Choosing an implant system:

Send your CT images or a description of your situation so we can determine a suitable system, timing and cost together.

What an implant crown is

How the restoration is assembled

• The implant is inside the bone.

• The abutment connects the components.

• The crown completes the appearance and chewing function.

Crown types

Metal-ceramic

• Advantage: good durability.

• Disadvantage: lower aesthetic quality; the margin may become visible over time.

Zirconia crown

• Advantages: high aesthetic quality, durability and a natural appearance.

• It is the most commonly preferred option in modern dentistry.

How a crown is placed

• The implant integrates with the bone.

• The abutment is fitted.

• An impression or 3D scan is taken.

• The crown is made and secured.

Lifespan

The durability of the result and the lifespan of the product depend on the person’s health, care, habits and clinical circumstances. The clinician explains expectations during the individual assessment; no fixed lifespan or duration of results is promised.

A crown’s service life varies with the person, care and clinical circumstances. A dentist assesses whether replacement is needed and evaluates the implant’s condition.

• The implant, rather than the crown, integrates with the bone.

• The crown primarily determines the appearance of the smile.

• Crown quality directly affects comfort and aesthetics.

How a crown is selected

The choice depends on the region (front or back), load and aesthetic expectations.

After diagnosis, the clinician determines the most suitable option.

Costs and quotation scope

Costs depend on the clinical assessment, treatment plan and services included. An individual written quotation should specify what is included, additional expenses, payment terms and cancellation conditions.

Implants for back teeth

Characteristics of the back-tooth region

• The highest chewing loads.

• Frequent bone loss after a prolonged absence of teeth.

• Proximity to anatomical boundaries such as the sinus and lower jaw limits.

When it is indicated:

• One or more missing molars or premolars.

• A need to restore full chewing function.

• A wish to avoid removable dentures.

• A need to preserve neighbouring teeth without grinding them down.

Treatment steps:

• CT assessment and load planning.

• Implant placement according to bone density.

• Osseointegration (usually 3–6 months). Procedure, healing, stay and follow-up times vary by person and treatment plan. An individual schedule is prepared after the clinician’s assessment; additional visits or changes to the plan may be needed.

• Fixation of the permanent crown with correct occlusion.

Early or immediate loading is possible in some cases when primary stability is sufficient.

Risks and ways to reduce them

• Overload caused by incorrect contact distribution.

• Insufficient bone in the back-tooth region.

• Inflammation around the implant due to inadequate hygiene.

👉 Correct CT diagnosis, appropriate prosthetic design and regular check-ups help reduce risks.

Expectations and individual assessment

• Suitability and expected benefits are assessed by the clinician. Results may vary between individuals; a particular appearance, success level or durability cannot be guaranteed.

An individual plan for the chewing region

• Send your CT images so we can assess bone volume and load distribution and propose the most suitable protocol with an estimate of timing and cost.

• Cost depends on the clinical assessment, treatment plan and service scope. An individual written quotation should clearly state inclusions, additional expenses, payment and cancellation terms.

Frequently asked questions about implantation

1.Pain and safety

Does implant placement hurt?
