Implant

Implant treatment involves the use of artificial roots, resembling titanium screws, to replace missing teeth by integrating them with the jawbone and attaching prosthetic teeth. This durable and long-lasting option is applied to individuals with missing teeth caused by accidents, decay, or gum diseases. However, not everyone is a candidate for implants, as adequate jawbone thickness, good overall health, and oral hygiene are essential. After implant surgery, mild discomfort may occur, but it is manageable with pain relievers. The treatment process consists of several stages, including implant placement and prosthetic attachment, taking around 3 to 6 months to complete. The All-on-4 and All-on-Six techniques use fewer or more implants, respectively, to fix all teeth on a prosthesis, reducing treatment time and cost. Immediate loading allows attaching prosthetic teeth on the same day as implant placement. Regular check-ups are crucial post-treatment to ensure implant and prosthetic health and fit.
