Implantology is one of the fastest growing fields in not only dentistry, but also in the whole medicine. An implant, which is an endosseous implant, is made of titanium, a biocompatible material which does not affect the organism.
Implants gain patients' acceptance due to their mostly physiological restoration of missing teeth, which allows patients to forget the feeling of discomfort resulting from their dentures. Missing teeth are fully replaced by an implant/crown complex, in which the titanic implant functions as a root in the bone , and prosthetic restoration functions as a clinical crown.

Implant prosthetics does not require polishing of the neighbouring teeth, which are often healthy and can be enjoyed by patients for many years. For this reason, restoring a missing tooth with an implant is not only one of the methods of treatment- it is often an indication.
Another aspect favouring the usage of implants is the fact that the adverse effects of the prosthetic foundation which declines in course of the usage of traditional dentures are to be avoided.

Permanent prosthetics ensure both physical and psychological health. Each patient is consulted individually. A concise plan of treatment is defined and one of the implant systems available in our clinic is used. Implantological treatment is carried out by a maxillofacial surgeon experienced in implantology methods and bone recovery. We cooperate with the best implant brands offering a wide range of possibilities concerning the placement of implants, prosthetic restoration on implants and full satisfaction. Our Clinic is a certified implant centre of Astra Tech and AlphaBio Tech companies.
Upon patients' request we offer treatment under general anesthetic by means of the newest devices for inhalation sedation under a constant control of an anaesthesiologist. The newly delivered advanced operating theatre together with recovery rooms enable patients to stay under the control of the team of specialists after the surgery.
Implants replace:
- the single missing teeth- an implant supported crown.
- loss of several teeth- an implant supported bridge
- complete lack of dentition
- a complete two- implant supported denture, overdenture prosthesis
- several implants supported denture
- eight- implant supported bridges in an upper jaw bone and/or six-implant supported bridges in a lower jaw bone.
Sometimes the placement of implants must be preceded with bone regeneration procedures and/or a sinus lift procedure. Synthetic or natural bone replacement materials are used in such treatment in the following:
- lack of bone after an agressive tooth extraction
- lack of the alveolar process after a longstanding use of butt joint dentures
- reduction in maxillary sinus
Implants can be used for adult patients of all ages and with any kind of prosthetic problem. Implants always improve comfort as far as single missing teeth are concerned, as well as dentures for completely edentulous patients. The placement of implants is an investment into the future, it is possible to place another implant in case of tooth loss, and combine implants. ATo find out more, consult our specialists.
