Whether you require treatment as a young person after traumatic loss of teeth or as an older person with partial dentition or edentulous jaws: implantology offers you a modern and proven alternative to conventional restorations and can generally be applied in all patients after completion of bone growth.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-1040\" src=\"http:\/\/alfa-dental.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/about-implants.jpg\" alt=\"about-teeth-implants\" width=\"300\" height=\"188\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alfa-dental.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/about-implants.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.alfa-dental.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/about-implants-111x69.jpg 111w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><br \/>\nAn implant is an artificial tooth root. It is firmly integrated in the bone substance and thus allows intensity of biting and chewing identical with that of natural teeth. Adjacent teeth do not need to be ground or used as abutment teeth; accordingly, the loss of healthy tooth substance is reduced considerably. Bone atrophy which is typical for conventional treatment methods is avoided by an artificial tooth root. Therefore &#8211; especially in cases of edentulous spaces &#8211; long-term restorations can be integrated. And since you need to bite throughout your life, an implant will ensure increased aesthetics, function and hence quality of life in every single moment you intend to present yourself with the safe feeling of healthy and firmly fixed teeth &#8211; even if these are your \u201ethird teeth\u201c.<\/p>\n<p>Implants are less expensive than you think. Talk to your dentist. He will inform you about the percentage of costs borne by your health insurance company.<\/p>\n<p><\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"accordion\"><div class=\"accordion-title\"><h3>Structure of the implant<i class=\"fa fa-plus\"><\/i><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"accordion-content\" ><p><br \/>\n<strong>How does an implant look like, and what does it consist of?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Structure of an implant:<\/strong><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-997\" src=\"http:\/\/alfa-dental.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/zgradba-vsadka.jpg\" alt=\"Implant structure\" width=\"300\" height=\"240\" \/><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>The implant body<\/strong>.

Both options require the presence of sufficient bone material to be able to insert several implants. For fixed restorations, individual teeth or bridges are attached to the implant.
