Why a Missing Tooth Affects the Entire Jaw
When thinking about a missing tooth, we often first consider the gap in our smile. But even when the tooth is further back and not immediately visible, the loss usually brings unpleasant long-term consequences for the jaw.
- •Bone Recession: When the jaw at the site of the missing tooth is no longer loaded as usual during eating, the body slowly begins to resorb the bone in this area.
- •Shifting of Neighbouring Teeth: Teeth like company. When the supporting neighbour is missing, adjacent teeth often slowly tilt into the empty gap.
- •Incorrect Loading: People often unconsciously begin to spare the gap when chewing. This can lead to misalignment and persistent tension in the jaw joint.
An implant doesn't just close the gap visually. It acts as an artificial root, channelling chewing forces back into the bone and thereby protecting it from resorption.
What Exactly Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are slender, biocompatible screws made of titanium or ceramic. They are placed directly at the toothless site as a 'replacement root' firmly into the jawbone by our surgical team. On this strong foundation, we later anchor your custom dental prosthetics, whether a single crown, a bridge, or support for a denture.
The great advantage compared to traditional bridges: we do not need to grind down adjacent healthy teeth for anchorage.
Why Implants at Our Clinic?
Precise Advance Planning (3D)
Using high-resolution 3D X-ray images, we pre-plan the exact position on the computer. This allows us to optimally protect nerves and blood vessels during the a
Titanium or Ceramic
We offer both time-tested titanium implants and high-strength ceramic implants as a completely metal-free alternative.
Dental Prosthetics Made In-House
The visible teeth that are ultimately attached to the implant are crafted by our dental technicians in our own laboratory for a harmonious transition.
Anxiety-Free Care
Thanks to gentle anaesthesia, the procedure is generally low in discomfort. If you suffer from severe dental anxiety, we are happy to plan the procedure under g
Experiences of Our Patients
A Benefit for Everyday Life
The costs for this treatment are composed of several components: the diagnostic effort (3D X-ray), the implant screw, the actual surgical procedure, and the handcrafted production of the visible dental prosthetics in the laboratory.
Following the evaluations, we prepare a <strong>transparent treatment and cost plan</strong> for you in advance.
Transparency in Financial Costs
To provide a reliable cost estimate for an implant, we need to examine your jaw thoroughly.
- ✓Every treatment begins with an open and objective conversation at our clinic.
- ✓Statutory health insurers in Germany do not contribute to the implant itself, but do provide a fixed subsidy towards the crown (the visible tooth).
- ✓Upon request, you can conveniently settle your invoice in comfortable instalments through our billing service partner.
The Standard Process
Consultation & Planning
We review a 3D X-ray (DVT/CBCT) of your jaw, check the bone width, and plan all details of the upcoming treatment with you at your pace.
Placement
Under local anaesthesia or general anaesthesia, the fine artificial tooth root is gently placed into the jawbone. It is then allowed to heal undisturbed.
Impression
After three to six months, the implant has usually firmly integrated with your bone. We then gently take an impression of the site for our dental technicians.
The Finished Tooth
Our technicians have crafted your individual implant crown from ceramic. We finally attach this securely to the artificial root.
Consideration for Sensitive Patients
We know that the word 'implant' causes a certain apprehension in many people. That is why our focus is on particularly empathetic consultation. In addition to the generally low-discomfort treatment under local anaesthesia, we work closely with an experienced anaesthesia team. This means we can carry out procedures under <strong>specialist-supervised general anaesthesia</strong> at any time upon request, while you can completely switch off.
