What is a dental implant?
A tooth is made up of several elements, one of which is essential: the dental root. When you lose a tooth and its root, that’s where the dental implant comes in. A dental implant is a small, screw-shaped piece, most often made of titanium, that is placed in your jaw by an oral and maxillofacial surgeon. Its purpose is to serve as an artificial root on which we will place a dental crown to replace your tooth. This piece is designed to be compatible with the bone structure of the mandible or maxilla.
This allows the bone to grow around the implant and create an environment conducive to its stabilization and solidification. When the dental implant is in place, the jawbone begins a healing process called osseointegration. Over the various phases of bone healing, the bone binds tightly to the implant’s surface, forming a solid base for the future artificial tooth. This process is essential because it creates a stable connection between the implant and the bone, allowing the artificial tooth to effectively withstand the repeated pressures of chewing.
Advantages of dental implants
If you are considering replacing one or more teeth, dental implants offer a solution that combines aesthetics and practicality. The use of a biocompatible titanium implant allows the natural tooth root to be replaced by an artificial root, which helps slow down and prevent bone atrophy often observed after tooth loss. Unlike some dental replacement options, dental implant placement offers predictable and long-lasting results.
Thanks to this technique, you won’t have to worry about potential alterations to your other teeth. For example, conventional bridges require at least two adjacent teeth to be reshaped for fixation, thus weakening your healthy teeth. Dental implants, on the other hand, allow you to replace a tooth without affecting the others. This way, you can regain your radiant smile without compromising the health of your other teeth.
Why trust our dental implant clinic?

If you are considering dental implants, make an appointment with our clinic. One of our qualified surgeons will see you for a detailed clinical examination and will perform a 3D radiological evaluation of the edentulous areas. Following this evaluation, the surgeon will clearly and precisely explain the different steps of your potential treatment. Depending on your situation, they will also indicate whether a bone graft prior to implant placement would be necessary to ensure the success of the procedure.
