Dental implants
What is a dental implant?
Technically, a dental implant is a small but very strong post made from bio-compatible metals or ceramics. Under local anesthetic, it is inserted into the jaw bone in place of the missing tooth root and acts as a support for the tooth. Later on a custom-made crown is attached to the implant. Dental implant therapy is today's long-term, state of the art restoration technique that can cover all indications. It has been scientifically tested and used for several decades to successfully restore missing teeth.

Cost for restoring a missing tooth with a dental implant can vary depending on:
- brand of the implant
Like with cars, different manufacturers make different products and offer a variety of options, which is reflected in price. We offer solutions that fit most budgets, from less expensive to premium. - amount of bone present
In many cases implant can be placed in the jawbone directly. However, sometimes there is simply not enough bone to support the implant. Bone augmentation becomes a procedure of choice, which aims to increase available bone. These additional steps may add to the cost. - position of the implant
If the tooth to be replaced is in the front a temporary solution (temporary crown on the implant or a removable denture) may be required.
