Fixed teeth & a confident smile

Why dental implants are so valuable

An implant replaces the missing tooth including its root and provides a stable, natural feel when chewing and speaking. Unlike a bridge, healthy neighbouring teeth remain untouched.

Before every implantation, we advise you thoroughly and plan digitally in 3D. This allows us to assess position, bone quality and load precisely and tailor the treatment to your situation.

Immediate implants

Tooth removal and implant in one session

If a tooth has to be extracted and the conditions are right, we place the implant at the same appointment. This spares you a second procedure.

01One procedure instead of twoWe remove the tooth and place the implant in the same session. You don't need a second surgical appointment.
02Shorter treatment timeYou don't have to wait for the empty socket to heal. The implant starts healing in right away.
03Natural contourRight after extraction, gum and bone still have their original shape. Placing the implant now can help preserve that contour.

Is an immediate implant possible for me?

The tooth must be free of acute inflammation and the bone must hold the implant securely. We check both beforehand in 3D.

Tooth replacement on a stable foundation

An implant replaces the tooth root and supports the subsequent crown. The result is a fixed, independent restoration that spares healthy neighbouring teeth.

  • Replace individual teeth without grinding down neighbouring teeth
  • Secure fit when speaking and chewing
  • Planned digitally in 3D and placed gently

Preservation of neighbouring teeth

Implants spare healthy teeth, as no grinding is necessary, ideal for single-tooth gaps.

Preservation of bone and tissue

Gentle implantation methods preserve bone, soft tissue and the natural tooth contour.

Planned, placed and restored in our practice

From planning to the finished tooth replacement, every step takes place with us, without a referral to another practice.

02ImplantationThe implant is anchored in the jaw as a fixed tooth root, gently and according to the previously created plan.
03Tooth replacementAfter the healing period, we attach the matching restoration, for a stable, natural chewing feel.

An implant replaces the root and helps to preserve the jawbone.

Implant or bridge

What is the difference?

Both close a tooth gap, but differ in function, durability and the preservation of natural tooth structure. An implant replaces the root in the jaw and supports the new crown on top of it.

01Preserving healthy neighbouring teethWith a bridge, neighbouring teeth often have to be ground down. Implants do not require any intervention on healthy teeth.
02Protection of bone and soft tissueImplants stimulate the jawbone and help to prevent bone loss and changes to the gums.
03A natural feel when chewingFirmly anchored in the jaw, implants feel like your own teeth and offer high stability.
04A long-lasting solutionWith good care, implants can last many years or even decades.

When is a bridge a sensible choice?

A bridge can be suitable when the neighbouring teeth are already heavily filled or crowned. In a personal consultation, we work out together which solution fits your situation.

Questions & answers

General information about dental implants

A dental implant is an artificial tooth root made of titanium or ceramic that is firmly anchored in the jaw. A crown, bridge or denture is then attached to it, for a natural chewing feel and an aesthetic smile.

Implants are suitable for patients with single-tooth gaps, several missing teeth or an edentulous jaw, provided there is sufficient bone substance.

With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, implants can last many decades, often even a lifetime.

After thorough diagnostics, precise 3D planning takes place. In a minor procedure, the implant is placed, followed by a healing period before the restoration is attached.

We remove the tooth and place the implant in the socket during the same session. This works if there is enough bone and no acute inflammation. Otherwise we place the implant after a healing phase.

Thanks to modern anaesthesia and minimally invasive techniques, the procedure is usually pain-free. Mild discomfort after the surgery is possible, but easily manageable.

Depending on the initial situation, the entire treatment process (including healing time) takes between 3 and 6 months, sometimes less with immediate implants.
