What is implantation?

Who's an implant intended for?
Implants are necessary for those who haven't one or some teeth. The persons who have not any teeth a removable denture can be changed into an irremovable stable one that is fixed with the help of implants.
Dental implantation is a highly specialized method of dental aid that has its indications and contraindications. Only after a detailed examination, a doctor can make an exact decision if such treatment is possible. At the same time due to the modern method of 3-D model of a patient's teeth and jaw system it is possible to make conclusion about bone's quality and its suitability to implantation as well as to calculate a denture construction.
Modern implants are made of titanium; one of its qualities is excellent biocompatibility with bone and other mouth cavity tissues.
Surgical operations on implant's fixation are carried under local anesthetization which helps to feel comfortable during the operation. The surgical consequences are minimized. Sutures are pulled out in 7-10 days. In 3-6 days, implant retention to the bone takes place. After this the second part of implant - ectostcal one, which later an false tooth is fixed on - is joined to it. Such a tooth looks cosmetically well and functions perfectly.
