Implantology

The lack of one or several teeth can be compensated in two ways: by installing a crown on the implant if it is a lack of one tooth or by installing a bridge on the implants if it is a lack of more teeth.

The lack of one or several teeth can be compensated in two ways: by installing a crown on the implant if it is a lack of one tooth or by installing a bridge on the implants if it is a lack of more teeth.

Implants have proven to be a better solution. There are several reasons why they are a better solution than classic dental bridges. We made a comparison in the table.

IMPLANT THERAPY

The process of implant therapy consists of 4 phases that differ slightly in the steps for the lower and upper jaw. For more information, select below the process you are interested in.

Send an inquiry and book an appointment. In addition to oral examinations and 3D scans for a complete analysis and subsequent therapy plan, we need a 3D X-ray. Once we have all this information, we can determine the condition of your jaw bones and surrounding structures and then do a virtual planning that includes the location of the implant and the future tooth. Then we will suggest you the best therapy and a detailed offer. Analyzes, examination, therapy plan and invoice preparation are free of charge.

Surgical implant placement in the jawbone. The procedure itself is painless because it is performed under local anesthesia and does not require much time - it often takes less than making fillings (30-45 minutes). If the situation with the bones allows it, it is possible to place a temporary crown immediately.

3 MONTHS – process of bone growth and healing

After implant placement, it takes 3 months for the implant to fully integrate with the bone. During implant bonding, the patient has a temporary solution.

WHAT WE NEED TO KNOW

First

The implant is a small screw made of high-quality material – titanium and a specially treated surface that serves as a support for crowns and bridges with which we can compensate for a lost tooth or more.

You can install an implant in the Smile studio from 550 Euro. The price of the implant includes analysis, implant, surgical implant placement with anesthesia and post-operative controls. Send us an inquiry or book an appointment, and in addition to the therapy plan, we will make an accurate financial offer for you, completely free of charge.

For detailed consultations about your implant surgery, we need a digital panoramic X-ray image and a 3D X-ray.

There is very little risk of failure in implant therapy. Globally, implant therapy should have a 98% success rate.

Smile studio has the same success thanks to a detailed examination of the candidates, very detailed planning and execution of the procedure and subsequent continuous monitoring and control.

The implantation procedure is performed by a doctor specialized in implantology, in a modernly equipped dental office with local anesthesia, completely painless. The procedure itself takes a very short time – about 20 minutes for the installation of one implant to a maximum of 120 minutes when multiple implants are being installed.

After implant placement, the implants are left to rest in the bone, in the upper jaw for 4-6 months, and in the lower 2-3 months in order to achieve full integration of the implant with the jaw bone. During this time, the implants are “invisible” in the oral cavity because they are located in the bone.

The day after the installation of one implant, you will be able to perform your daily activities completely normally. You will get from us all the necessary information related to recovery and means to alleviate pain or infection. When installing multiple implants, we recommend resting for 1-2 days.

In order to accelerate healing, the process of implant adhesion and achieve better bone quality around the implant, in some cases we use PRGF-Endoret technology. Immediately before the procedure, we take a small amount of blood from the patient, from which we extract plasma rich in growth factor, which we place on the bone around the implant, which accelerates healing.

Smile Studio owns certifications for the installation of several implant systems. We offer implants with a lifetime warranty from the world’s most renowned manufacturer Nobel Biocare and implants from the Swedish companies AstraTech and AlphaBio.

Nobel Biocare has given our studio the certificate “Recommended clinic for Nobel Biocare implants”

We always make sure that the patient has some kind of temporary solution. If the situation allows it, we install temporary teeth on the implants on the same or the next day. Other solutions are possible depending on the situation and position of the teeth.

The whole procedure, which includes implant placement, resting phase, impression taking, making and installing permanent prosthetic work, takes 3-4 months for the lower jaw, or 6-7 months for the upper jaw.

It is a misconception that nothing can happen to implants. Regarding the lifespan of a dental implant, it is important to note that dental implantology is a teamwork involving the implantologist, prosthetist, dental technician and, of course, the patient. In other words, all the links in that chain must function flawlessly if we want a long-lasting dental implant. A very important factor for the longevity of implants is oral hygiene and regular check-ups (1-2 times a year). If careful hygiene is lacking, plaque is formed, which over time turns into tartar, which leads to the withdrawal of gums and bones. In this way, the implants lose their bone support, which in extreme cases can lead to the loss of the implant itself (similar to periodontitis). If the patient is a smoker, the success of the procedure and further maintenance of the implant is reduced.
