Implantology

Chew and smile with greater confidence again

If missing teeth make you avoid certain foods, or a denture moves and causes discomfort, exploring other options may help you feel more at ease in everyday life. An implant consultation allows us to assess your case and help you understand which options for replacing your teeth make sense for you.

What is implantology?

Implantology is the area of dentistry that uses implants to support the replacement of missing teeth. The implant is placed in the jawbone and acts as a support: the visible part is a crown, bridge or denture attached to that support.

At Clinimed, we provide implant-supported restorations to replace one tooth, several teeth or all the teeth in an arch. The aim is to help restore chewing function, comfort and the appearance of your smile, taking each person’s circumstances and needs into account.

Are dental implants right for me?

The choice depends on your oral and general health, the available bone and the type of restoration you need. Implants are one option to consider; alternatives may include bridges supported by natural teeth or removable dentures.

If you are unsure whether you are suitable for treatment, the first step is a diagnostic assessment. This helps clarify what is possible, what preparation is needed and the limitations of each option.

How is treatment planned at Clinimed?

At the first diagnostic consultation, the treatment stages and cost estimate are presented. This is an opportunity to clarify the process and understand the expected financial commitment.

Preparation includes a CT scan and other X-rays, as clinically indicated, to assess the conditions in your mouth and plan implant placement. Where necessary, other dental treatments are carried out beforehand to establish suitable oral health conditions.

What if the bone needs preparation?

In some cases, the plan may include procedures to increase the amount of available bone. The need for these is assessed individually.

Bone regeneration aims to rebuild or increase the bone in the area to be restored. This may involve L-PRF, a material prepared from a small sample of the patient’s own blood, concentrating fibrin, platelets and white blood cells, which may be used as an adjunct to support healing.

In the upper back tooth region, a sinus lift may be needed. This procedure carefully raises the membrane lining the cavity above these teeth, creating space to increase the bone that will support the implants. Depending on the case, it may be performed before or at the same time as implant placement.

Can I have teeth on the same day?

In selected cases, Clinimed offers immediate loading, with temporary teeth fitted on the same day. This possibility depends on the clinical conditions and the treatment plan defined by the dentists.

Having temporary teeth does not mean that treatment is complete. Healing, the integration of the implants with the bone and preparation of the final restoration remain part of the process. The number of stages and the duration vary from person to person.

Comfort and respect for your own pace

Concerns about surgery, discomfort or recovery can make the decision more difficult. Share what worries you and what you need to understand before proceeding.

At Clinimed, patient comfort is a priority. As with any surgery, discomfort and complications can occur. The team aims to adapt care to each person and respect their limits.

Care continues after implant placement

Implants and restorations need daily oral hygiene and professional follow-up. Maintenance helps prevent and detect problems, supporting the ongoing care of your restoration.

The identification details of the implants and components used are recorded in your clinical file.
