IMPLANTOLOGY
It is the surgical dental specialty by which lost teeth are replaced with
dental implants for the morpho-functional and aesthetic rehabilitation
of the dental apparatus.
A dental implant is an artificial replacement of the tooth root and is designed to
hold one or more artificial teeth.
Dental implants feel and behave almost like natural
teeth providing higher comfort in
terms of functionality and
aesthetics. The dental implant replaces
the natural teeth for an
indefinite period with a success
rate of over 95% and is indistinguishable from natural teeth. The healing period after implant insertion
surgery lasts 4-6
months, during which the patient may
receive temporary work.
The advantages of
dental implants: the natural appearance
of the tooth, the easy consumption of food, eliminating the
discomfort of dentures, improving dental health, sustainability, convenience.
It is important to note that people
who smoke are prone to high
complications of dental implants.
People with weakened immune system, osteoporosis, diabetes and those with chemo and
radiotherapy treatments have contraindication to
insertion of dental implants.
