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. |
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. |
