Dental implants

Replace one or more teeth with a fixed solution that looks, feels and works like a natural tooth.

What is it?

A dental implant is a small, biocompatible titanium post placed in the jawbone that works as the root of a tooth. Once it has bonded with the bone, a crown or prosthesis is fixed on top. It is the most stable way to replace missing teeth, because it does not rely on neighboring teeth and does not move when you eat or speak.

The implant works as the root: the bone grows around it and the crown is fixed on top.

  • Who is it for?

  • People missing one or more teeth.
  • Those who wear removable dentures and want something fixed and comfortable.
  • Those who prefer not to grind down neighboring teeth for a bridge.
  • Patients in good general health with enough bone, or who can be prepared for it (assessed at the consultation).
  • What does the procedure involve?

  • 1Assessment and imagingThe doctor examines your mouth and medical history and uses X-rays or a CT scan to measure the available bone and plan each implant.
  • 2Implant placementThe implant is placed in the bone under local anesthesia. It is a precise and usually short procedure.
  • 3Bonding with the boneOver the following weeks, the bone fuses with the implant. This stage gives it long-term stability.
  • 4Final crownOnce integrated, the final crown or prosthesis is placed, designed to look like your natural teeth.
  • Recovery

    Discomfort is usually mild and controlled with the medication the doctor prescribes. Some swelling during the first days is normal. A soft diet, good hygiene and attending follow-ups are recommended.

    Frequently asked questions

    Does placement hurt?

    It is done under local anesthesia, so you should not feel pain during the procedure. Mild discomfort afterwards is controlled with medication.

    How long does an implant last?

    With good hygiene, regular check-ups and healthy habits, an implant can last many years.

    What if I don't have enough bone?

    The doctor assesses this at the consultation and will explain the options available for your case.

    Can I have treatment if I'm visiting from abroad?
