Dental Implant abroad

A tooth implant is an artificial replacement of the tooth rootthat is anchored to a pre-drilled hole in the jawbone to hold a crown, bridge or full bridge or denture on teeth implants (overdenture). Dental implants are made of titanium, a material that is well tolerated (biocompatible) by the human body and easily integrates (osseointegration) with bone tissue.

During an implant dentistry process, the oral surgeon achieves a close contact between the surface of the dental implant and the tissue of the jawbone. With time the tooth implant integrates with the jawbone, creating a solid and durable support for the tooth replacement. If there is a need for the replacement of more than one tooth a dental implant supported bridge or a full denture is built on the dental implants.

In some cases when there is not enough jawbone to support a dental implant, sinus lift or bone grafting needs to be prepared.

Dental implants will enable you to eat, chew, talk, smile, laugh confidently, so much that you will ever forget that your teeth are not naturally yours.

The cost of dental implant basically depends on the complexity of the operation, the used materials and suggested prosthetic works. Possible bone grafting or sinus lift can also affect the dental implant price. So the cost of dental implant treatments are not easy to compare.

Below you can find two typical tooth implant cost examples for porcelain crown(s) on dental implants (3 unit porcelain bridge on two dental implants and full porcelain bridge on six dental implants) prepared for you to better understand the cost and see the necessary treatments. Please note that sinus lift and bone grafting are not included in the calculation.

If you are tired of all the embarrassment of slipping dentures, not being able to eat the food that you love and the ineffectiveness of denture adhesives or just want to have one missing tooth to be replaced, then dental implants are the perfect solution for you.

If you are still hesitating about dental implants here are some of the possible aftermaths of missing teeth:

• Contiguous teeth might move towards the gap, thus your denture might loosen up. This can cause you difficulty in chewing that might lead to indigestion.
• If you don’t act as soon as possible, your jawbone starts losing bone mass with time. Bone resorption may result in a transformation of your face and you may have a strange appearance.
• During the chewing process, orts or food residues might stay in the gap that has a negative effect on the neighboring teeth (both sides).
• Furthermore, missing incisors might give you a hard time in talking and you might lose confidence in public.
