What Is a Dental Implant?

A dental implant is an artificial tooth root made of titanium, surgically placed into the jawbone to support a replacement tooth or bridge. Over time, it fuses with the bone to provide a stable and durable foundation for prosthetic teeth.

What Are Implant-Supported Prostheses?

🦷 Implant-Supported Prostheses

Implant-supported prostheses are artificial teeth placed over dental implants. These restorations replace missing teeth by attaching securely to the implant base, offering enhanced stability and a natural appearance. They come in two main types:

1. Fixed Implant-Supported Prostheses

Permanently attached and cannot be removed by the patient
Ideal for those seeking the highest level of comfort and aesthetics
Suitable for replacing a single tooth, multiple teeth, or a full arch

2. Removable Implant-Supported Prostheses

Can be removed and reinserted by the patient
Often preferred in cases of multiple missing teeth
Provide a cost-effective and practical solution

Key Benefits of Implant-Supported Prostheses

🦷 Advantages of Implant-Supported Prostheses

Implant-supported prostheses offer numerous advantages that make them a superior choice compared to traditional dentures or bridges:

🔹 1. Natural Aesthetics

Designed to mimic the appearance of natural teeth
Made with high-quality materials like porcelain and zirconia
Enhances facial symmetry and supports a confident smile

🔹 2. Improved Functionality

Restores full chewing and speaking abilities
Allows for comfortable eating without fear of movement

🔹 3. Long-Lasting Durability

The Application Process: Step by Step

🦷 Implant-Supported Prosthesis Process

Getting implant-supported prostheses involves several carefully planned steps, all managed by our experienced dental team at LHC Clinic:

1. Consultation and Planning

A comprehensive oral examination, X-rays, or 3D imaging is performed to evaluate your dental health.

2. Implant Placement

Titanium implants are surgically placed into the jawbone under local anesthesia.

3. Healing Period

A healing period of 3–6 months allows the implant to integrate with the bone.

4. Abutment Placement

A connector piece (abutment) is attached to the implant to hold the prosthesis.

5. Prosthesis Fitting

The final custom-made prosthesis is placed, either as a fixed or removable solution.
