Dental Implants
Dental implants are intended for people who have lost one or more teeth as a result of dislocation, extraction ora result of tooth decay.
The surgery to place the implants can be performed on individuals who have completed their jawbone growth, which occurs between the ages of 17 and 18.
The placement of the implant is not an end in itself, since it must be completed by a prosthesis that will cover it.
a missing tooth
The stability of a natural dentition comes from the fact that all the teeth touch each other, support each other and share the chewing effort.
When a tooth is lost, the tooth opposite it becomes useless and seeks to regain the lost tooth and function by moving to the opposite edentulous space.
The root becomes exposed to the air and the tooth becomes more sensitive to cold, sweet foods and touch.
In addition, food tends to get lodged between the uneven teeth and encourages the development of cavities or periodontitis (bone or gum disease).
The molar following the lost tooth shifts by sliding and leaning forward, causing more difficult maintenance and a problem of inflammation of the bone and gum.
Thus, over the years, a single unreplaced tooth could lead to the loss of its neighbours. The remaining teeth, overworked and destabilised, will also start to shift, and the phenomenon will be amplified until the teeth and bone structure gradually disappear.
Regardless of the number of teeth lost, implantology can restore the mouth to its natural function and brilliance.

It is possible to make a fixed bridge on implants with or without extractions in one day: you come back to the practice without teeth or with teeth that cannot be preserved and you leave with fixed teeth on 4 or more implants within the day.
Advances in 3D digital imaging, modern laboratory techniques and rigorous computer planning (CAD-CAM) make this ultra-fast treatment possible!
The dream of many people who are reluctant to undergo long and arduous treatments is realised by our team with decades of experience.
You leave the practice with a renewed smile and can immediately bite into an apple!
