All You Need to Know About Dental Implants

What are Dental Implants and Am I a Candidate?

Dental implants are titanium screws that are inserted into your jawbone to act as artificial roots for your teeth.

They are connected to an abutment which in turn is topped by a dental crown.

The crown is custom made for every patient, ensuring the right fit and the same colour as the rest of your teeth.

Elements of Dental Implant

Elements of Dental Implants

Dental implants have several benefits over conventional dentures, such as:

  • Improving chewing function
  • Being natural & comfortable
  • Helping with better maintenance of bone
  • Not needing to be taken out every night & cleaned

However, not everyone is a candidate for dental implants.

If you have any of the following, you might not be eligible for dental implants:

  • HIV
  • AIDS
  • Diabetes
  • Osteoporosis
  • Heavy smoking habits
  • Habits like tooth grinding

You should also know that you need healthy jawbone in order to get dental implants.

If you have bone loss, you might need a bone graft surgery before the implant procedure.[1]Colgate
Dental Implant Surgery
“Depending on the structure of your jawbone, you might need to add a little extra bone to give the implant site a more solid foundation. An oral surgeon adds this bone through a process called bone grafting.”

How Long Does It Take to Get Dental Implants in Zagreb, Croatia?

You will need to take two trips to Zagreb in order to get dental implants.

Refer to the following table to see how long it will take you to get dental implants.

Procedure Visit 1 Visit 2
Single Implant 1-2 days 3-4 days
All on 4/All on 6 Implants 3 days 6-7 days
Zygoma Implant 2 days 4 days
Same Day Implant With Crown 2-3 days
Bone Graft 1-2 days
Sinus Lifting 1-2 days

Two visits are required because there is a healing period after implants are inserted.

It will take several months for the implant to fuse with the bone in a process called osseointegration.

In all this time you will be wearing a temporary prosthesis.

During your second visit, once healing is over, you will get your permanent prosthesis.

If you need a bone graft, you will need to make one extra visit as the healing takes 4-6 months.

Source: Colgate[7]Colgate
Dental Implant Surgery
“While the implant heals, you’ll wear a temporary denture…During this time, osseointegration will be occurring…when the bone begins growing into and uniting with the surface of the implant, making it a part of the natural gumline. The process can take anywhere from three to nine months…If bone grafting is needed, the healing process can take at least four to six months before installing an implant.”
