Dental implants work as an artificial root, made of titanium, placed in one of the jaws to support dental crowns.

These are used in people missing one or more teeth, whose natural roots cannot support a new crown.

Missing teeth has a very significant impact on quality of life, aesthetically and function-wise. A dental implant and a new ceramic crown are the definitive and complete solution for anyone with this problem.

The function, comfort and aesthetics of a natural tooth are recovered. In these cases, it is practically impossible to see the difference between a placed tooth and a natural tooth.

Typically, implant placement is recommended only for patients over 18 years of age.

It is recommended to place the implant only after growth has finished.

No, the placement of dental implants should not cause pain.

Treatment is done with local anaesthesia, similar to that used for any other dental procedure performed in a dentist’s office.

The life span of a dental implant varies greatly from person to person and depends on many factors.

Both the implant and the prosthesis (crown or bridge) inserted into the implant have different levels of durability.

Still, there are cases of patients with implants for over 30 years.

No, dental implants are not detected by airport security machines.
