Implantology

Dental implants are one of the most common methods of tooth replacement. Dental implants are a very reliable type of tooth replacement that both looks and feels like a real tooth. Dental implants provide a permanent solution if you need to replace a single tooth, or multiple teeth, in different areas. If taken care of, dental implants can last you a lifetime. The process of placing your dental implant can be somewhat lengthy. It begins with the replacement of your tooth’s root with metal screws, which will be used as an anchor for the false tooth placed on top. Once the screws have been put into place, you will need to allow the implant to heal for a few months, during which time, the implant becomes securely fused to your jawbone. Once the implant has healed completely, a dental crown will be placed on top and secured.

The implant represents an artificial replacement of the tooth root (commonly known as a "screw") that is placed into the alveolar bone. With special surgical instruments, it is placed into the jawbone, procedure is done under the local anaesthesia, the entire procedure is painless, the wound is sutured, the sutures are removed after seven days, then we wait three months for the organism to accept the implant, the bone grows through its structures fully fusing it in the alveolar bone. The percentage of implant rejection is reduced to a minimum, less than 1%.

Three months after the implant placement the second part of the procedure follows: placing the superstructure. It is screwed into the implant and is visible in the mouth, made of titanium and has a shape of the prepared tooth. After the superstructure is installed, the impression for the definitive prosthetic work is taken.

Dental Crowns are a tooth-shaped cap which is placed on the tooth to restore the shape, size, and appearance of the tooth. It also enhances the strength of the tooth. If the major part of the tooth is missing, then the crown is the best solution for it. By placing the crown, a tooth can function normally again. Crowns for teeth are usually made from different materials. While NDC provides you crowns made out of
