Implant Placement: Dental implants are artificial tooth roots that replace missing teeth. Made from titanium, these implants are placed into the jawbone and gradually integrate with the bone to create a stable foundation. Implant placement is typically performed under local anesthesia and completed in several stages. In the first stage, the implant is placed into the jawbone, and the healing process allows it to integrate with the bone. In the second stage, an abutment is placed on the implant, followed by a prosthetic tooth. These procedures replace missing teeth, providing excellent aesthetic and functional results.
Bone Grafting and Sinus Lifting: Sufficient bone volume is necessary for dental implant placement. In cases of bone loss, a bone graft procedure is performed. This involves adding bone tissue to the jawbone. Sinus lifting is a procedure performed in the upper jaw. The sinus cavity is elevated by adding bone to create a suitable environment for implant placement. These procedures ensure that the implants are stable and long-lasting. The healing process may take several months, after which the implant placement stage can proceed.
