Dental implants are replacement tooth roots that provide a strong foundation for fixed replacement teeth that are made to match your natural teeth. Typically, the dental implant procedure is performed on those who have lost a tooth or several teeth due to injury, tooth decay or periodontal disease (gum or bone infection). In other words, dental implants replace missing teeth with a more natural look and feel compared to dentures and other types of dental restorations.

Our affiliated clinic offers dental implant procedures that are performed using computer-assisted or computer-guided technology, elevating the dental implant procedure to a higher level, where safety is guaranteed and the procedure is minimally-invasive. This reduces the number of implants needed, thus reducing the overall cost of your dental implant surgery. All-on-4 and All-on-6 dental implants are offered.

1. Your mouth will be rinsed with an antiseptic. Anaesthesia is administered, so pain should not be felt at all.
2. A microincision is created in the gum to reveal the jawbone. This enables the surgeon to prepare the bone.
3. A specific hole is gradually and gently drilled into the jawbone. The size of the hole depends on the size of the implants. This step is performed with the guidance of a computer.
4. The implant is tapped into position carefully and gently. Occasionally, abutments are placed simultaneously with the implants.

The computer-guided dental implant procedure is the most sophisticated and reliable way to restore your teeth as it is minimally-invasive, which reduces the risks of complications. The computer-guided dental implant procedure relies on special software and 3D simulation of the mandible and maxilla so that the surgeon can plan every detail of the intervention. In addition, guidance from the computer allows our affiliated dentist to accurately determine the depth, inclination and position in which the implants are inserted.

Q1: Is it possible if I want metal free implants?
A1: As far as medical term is concern, there is no such thing as metal free implant. Almost all materials used for teeth replacements contains at least a minute amount of metal ions in them.

Q2: I have a lot of missing teeth, what will happen if I do not go for Dental Implant?
A2: Your jawbone will experience a lack of stimulation and might start to shrink. This may result in a premature aging appearance.

Q3: Are they removable like dentures?
A3: No, dental implants are fixed solidly in the bone.

Q4: Is the dental implant procedure painful?
A4: Many say that having a tooth extracted is more painful. However, incisions must be made at the gums, which is why anesthesia is used.

Q5: Are there alternatives to dental implants?
A5: An alternative may be a dental bridge, which can also be used to replace missing teeth. If you currently have a denture, adjusting it for a better fit may help.

Q6: Are follow-ups necessary?
A6: Yes. Since it will take several months for your jawbone to fuse with the implants, you will need multiple follow-up visits with your surgeon. This is to observe how well your jaw is healing. Overall, this procedure will require you to stay at least 2 weeks for the first stage, which is the implant surgery. 4 to 6 months after, you need to come back for the final crown or capping, which will take 3 weeks to finish.
