FAQ about Dental Implants
Will my new teeth feel
like my own?
Yes! Since the dental implants are anchored in
your jawbone, they function as your ordinary teeth when you are
chewing, talking and laughing. Most people do not feel any
difference between their natural teeth and the new ones.

Does my age
matter?
Your age is normally not relevant - more
important is your health. But if you are under eighteen, you must be
examined to make sure you have finished growing before you can
undergo implant treatment

Can I keep
my other teeth?
Yes, of course. With Dental Implants you don’t
have to sacrifice healthy teeth to restore missing ones. Unlike
conventional bridges or partial dentures no adjacent teeth are
affected or needed for support.

How safe
are dental implants?
Extensive clinical studies show positive
long-term results for dental implants. The unique design and the
TiOblastTM
surface give superior strength and ensure that the teeth stay
securely in place. The threads on the fixture anchor the implant
and preserve the bone. This maintains the soft tissue contour which
is important for a natural look.

Why
are the screws made of titanium?
Titanium is a metal accepted by the body. The
process by which the bone grows onto the metal in a very close,
“integrated” way is known as osseointegration.
