In dentistry, implants are artificial tooth roots. Crowns can be placed on them to close gaps aesthetically and functionally, or dentures can be anchored securely. Tooth loss does not only affect older patients. Younger people can also lose teeth through accidents, inflammation or disease.

Implants can restore fixed chewing function and a natural feeling. Whether implant treatment is suitable depends on bone, gums, neighbouring teeth, general health and the desired restoration. We explain the options, risks and alternatives clearly before planning.
