DENTAL IMPLANT

The dental implant is an artificial root anchored in the bone, replacing a natural root that is missing or lost and on which a dental crown is placed.

INDICATIONS

It allows the replacement of one or more teeth (bridges of several teeths) missing and also allows to fix a denture for increased comfort and stability.
A missing tooth destabilizes the entire dentition. Thus, a real esthetic transformation, the dental implant is especially the possibility to find a quality of life on a daily basis.
A less known consequence of the loss of teeth and the absence of their replacement is the loss of bone support and the premature aging of the face. Indeed, the bone loses its height and its structure changes.
With time bone loss changes the shape of the face and the following changes are observed:

The distance between the chin and the nose is reduced;
The mouth moves back with respect to the chin;
The muscles of the face sag;
The lips are thinner.

THE PROCEDURE OF PLACING IMPLANTS

The installation of a dental implant is an act performed under local anesthetic. The latest advances in the field make it possible to perform this procedure without opening the gingiva, according to the "flapless" method and to minimize the operative follow-up. It lasts 20 to 30 minutes. We have a slight vibration sensation in the jaw, but it is absolutely not painful.
Consequences are simple and we have very rarely a swelling
Get bak to regular activities the next day. However It is not advisable to exercise during the 4 weeks following the procedure.

ADVANTAGES OF THE DENTAL IMPLANT

The dental implant and its crown looks like a real tooth and fits perfectly in the mouth. You will forget even its presence and will have the feeling that it is about natural teeth! A smile with dental implants looks like a natural smile!

ESTHETIC

Tooth saving: it is no longer necessary to rely on adjacent teeth to replace a missing tooth, as is the case for traditional bridges, or hooks of prostheses

SAFETY

Technology of implants replacing teeth are now proven and safe when they are well indicated. Implants are very strong and biocompatible.

SELF-CONFIDENCE

Implants give the patient self confidence, in their smile and in their interaction with others. The dental implant can be used for fixed crowns , much more comfortable than a removable device.
We feel free and confident. Or to stabilize prostheses No more prosthesis glues, the fear that the prosthesis will not hold if you sneeze or laugh too loudly.
With implants, you can eat, talk, laugh and enjoy life and its pleasures ... You can enjoy life to the fullest!
