Implantology

To speak, to eat, and to laugh should work with artificial teeth just as well as with the original teeth. This understandable wish cannot be fulfilled in all cases with traditional dentures though. They prevent the jaw-bone from degenerating - a long-term consequence of the loss of teeth. If several or even all teeth are lost, bridges or dentures can be anchored lastingly by means of implants.
Your oral surgeon is especially trained for these operations. They include not only the implantation but also the corresponding thorough preliminary physical examinations and detailed talks with the patient. The implants are made of the biologically compatible material titanium. There they heal and practically become a part of the bone. After the healing phase, that is bridged with temporary dentures not visible for outsiders, the implants serve as pillars for the proper dentures. They can be strained immediately. In cases where the jaw-bone has already degenerated because gaps have existed for a longer period of time, the oral surgeon can compensate this loss by transplanting body's own jaw substance. There are different systems available in implantology. Which of these the is right system will be jointly decided by the doctor and the patient after detailed consultation.
Implantology is a fully developed operational technology that is nowadays carried out routinely. An experienced surgeon and the most modern equipment offer you a guarantee for success that nowadays comes close to 100%.
The price of the treatment is not only determined by the respective system but mainly by the number of implants. The cost estimate will give you the relevant information.

Possibilities

Here you can see some examples of the many possibilities of dentures by means of implantology.
A single denture has the great advantage that the adjacent teeth don't need to be polished to fix a traditional bridge on them.
In case of missing grinders, a bridge can be manufactured with the help of the implants that is much superior to the removable dentures regarding wearing comfort, durability, and hygiene.
 
In case of a total loss of teeth you can implant dentures with the implant technology that doesn't move during chewing and speaking. This depends on the state of the jaw-bone though and on how many implants are implanted to possibly replace the then still missing teeth with a bridge.
