  OSSEOINTEGRATION

        What is Osseointegration

When dental implants that have been placed in your jawbone are successful,    OSSEOINTEGRATION occurs. This term means bone connection. The metal  or ceramic part of the Implant is placed into your jawbone, then the bone actually attaches itself directly to the Implant, growing all around it and supporting it firmly.

Scientific data do tell us that Implant system based on OSSEOINTEGRATION are  predictable and highly successful. Your dentist can discuss this with you.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  How long will Dental Implants last ?

With advances in the science of Implant dentistry, you can now expect that most Implants will function indefinitely. However, like any dental restoration, the teeth may wear or break and need to be repaired or replaced.

  Examination and Diagnosis

When you first see your dentist to talk about the possibility of Implant therapy, your mouth will be thoroughly examined. X-rays will be taken of your head, jaw, and teeth so your dentist can determine the type, amount, and location of bone that is available. You may have to undergo other tests to check blood characteristics, heart function, lung condition, and general health status.

  Impressions

Impression (molds) of the teeth and jaws are also necessary. Using these impression, the dentist will then make plaster-like models so he or she can plan the treatment and make surgical guides. Such surgical help the surgeon to properly place the Implants.
