Dental implants are the discovery which has radically changed the course of dental science in the last 25 years. Modern implants are made of titanium, have a shape that is similar to the root of the tooth, are placed under the gums into the jawbone and on them adhere or are screwed various prosthetic restorations (artificial teeth).<\/p>\n

The implants are placed into the bone with a relatively simple surgery for the experienced surgeon. The duration of the surgery is approximately half an hour for a single implant and increases depending on the number of implants. The operation is performed under local anesthesia and thus the patient feels no pain at all. After the operation, there is no significant pain, just a slight edema (swelling) in the area, which are symptoms that can be treated with simple painkillers.<\/div><\/div>\n

After their placement, the implants are integrated into the bone, that is a direct contact is developed between the bone cells and the titanium surface without any intervention of soft connecting tissue. Thus, the implant is fully integrated into the bone and presents no mobility at all.<\/span><\/p>\n

The osseointegration of implants, when the protocol for their placement is strictly followed, is achieved at a rate that approaches 100%. The survival of implants also presents high rates that exceed 90% after a period of ten years, while there is no \u201cexpiry\u201d date for them. Implants can be placed on any healthy person, even in elderly people.<\/span><\/p>\n

A prerequisite is a good pre-operative radiographic and clinical assessment of whether the bone is sufficient in quantity and quality at the places that the insertion of the implants is planned.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the case that the bone is not sufficient for the placement of the implants, its volume can be increased with the use of bone grafts. This is the aim of operations such as the lift of the sinus floor or other operations that increase the width or the height of the alveolar crest.<\/span><\/div>\n
