Dental implants not only improve bite functionality, but also enhance aesthetics and quality of life, providing our patients with a durable and effective solution
The procedure consists of surgically placing a titanium screw into the jawbone, which acts as an artificial root. This screw fuses with the bone, providing a solid base to support a dental crown. The treatment restores oral health, improves confidence when smiling and chewing, and offers a permanent solution for tooth loss.
Types of Dental Implants
There are different types of dental implants depending on the patient’s needs:
1. Endosteal Implants
This is the most common type of implant and is placed directly into the jawbone to replace the tooth root. Once the area has healed, a post is inserted to support the dental prosthesis. These implants provide stability and a long-term solution.
2. Subperiosteal Implants
Recommended for patients with significant bone loss, these implants are placed on top of the jawbone, beneath the gums. A metal framework supports the dental prosthesis, providing a viable option when bone grafting is not possible.
3. Blade Implants
Used in patients with a narrow jawbone, these implants are an alternative to avoid bone grafts. However, they have certain limitations and must be evaluated according to the patient’s specific condition.
¿When Do You Need a Dental Implant?
- You have lost one or more teeth
- You have broken or severely damaged teeth
- You use removable dentures or bridges and are looking for a more permanent solution
- You experience difficulty or insecurity when chewing
- You want to improve the appearance of your smile
Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants offer multiple benefits beyond aesthetics, including:
- Durability and permanence: With proper care, implants can last a lifetime
- Improved functionality: They restore chewing ability, allowing patients to eat without limitations
- Prevention of bone loss: By fusing with the bone, implants stimulate bone tissue and help prevent deterioration
¿How Much Does the Treatment Cost and How Long Does It Take?
The cost and duration of dental implant treatment vary depending on each patient and the complexity of the case. Factors such as the number of implants required, the quality of the jawbone, and additional procedures like bone grafts influence the final cost. In general, the complete treatment may take several months due to the healing time required between stages.
