Dental implants have been used for more than 35 years as permanent replacements for missing teeth and to provide a full set of dentures in cases of maxillary or mandibular edentulism. After years of research, dental implant systems have now been developed that can guarantee both firm hold and a natural appearance.
The treatments on offer include:
Replacement of single teeth
Using a dental implant, the healthy teeth next to the gap do not need to be filed down as they do when traditional dentures are used. An implant is a natural, durable, reliable and aesthetically pleasing solution.
Replacing several teeth
Thanks to dental implants, it is possible to make a fixed bridge or separate crowns when replacing a group of teeth, thus avoiding the need to use traditional removable dentures.
Replacing full sets of teeth
If the patient is missing all of their maxillary or mandibular teeth, dental implants are the answer. They offer the freedom to choose, for instance, between a complete bridge fixed onto several dental implants and a full set of dentures, which can be removed by the dentist and is fixed to two or more implants using anchoring devices. |
