Dental Implants: First-class replacement for natural teeth!

When we smile, we automatically appear friendly to those around us. When teeth are missing, many people feel inhibited and smile less. The high-quality dental replacements from your dentists for dental implants in Zug can help patients regain their positive appearance and ensure a safe bite.

A dental implant is the artificial replacement of a tooth root that no longer exists – i.e. the part of the tooth that anchors it in the jaw and is completely or partially covered by gum. The implants are therefore modeled on the natural tooth roots and the dentist can use them to replace lost teeth.

An implant operation is usually carried out under local anesthesia and, depending on the extent of the procedure, takes a total of around 30 – 90 minutes.

The implant can ensure a secure and tight fit of the dentures, because as soon as the jawbone has grown together with the implant, it can be used:

to attach fixed dental replacements such as crowns and bridges.
as anchoring of removable dentures such as partial and total prostheses.

Implants for teeth: Requirements and risk factors

If your dentists in Zug are to insert a dental implant, they must first check the condition of the jaw, resp. the jaw bone. In order for the implant to be successfully inserted, the existing bone in the jaw must be suitable for the implants for the teeth to be firmly anchored in it. Depending on the quality and volume of the bone required in the jaw, an additional bone augmentation may be necessary. Depending on the situation and extent, this intervention is carried out simultaneously with the insertion of the dental implant or beforehand as an independent procedure.

Furthermore, there are some general and medical risk factors that influence the successful insertion and/or subsequent maintenance of dental implants and therefore must be taken into account by your dentist-team.

These include, for example:

Various general illnesses (such as diabetes, osteoporosis and others)
Certain medications
Periodontitis
Smoking (nicotine)
Teeth grinding (bruxism)

And last but not least, the patient’s oral health and individual dental hygiene also play an important role.

Which materials are used for dental implants?

Titanium

Usually, the high-quality dental implants are made of titanium. The material titanium as a material for dental implants has been investigated in medical research for a long time. The excellent biocompatibility of titanium has already been scientifically confirmed in various studies. It is particularly important during implant treatment by the dentist. After inserting the screw-shaped tooth implants, new bone cells are formed and the jaw bone connects with the foreign material (so-called osseointegration). The bone attaches itself directly to the artificial tooth root and the implants are firmly anchored in the jaw. Healing when using titanium only takes a short period of time. In addition, allergies to the material are extremely rare.

Ceramics

Alternatively, implants made of ceramics (e.g. zirconium oxide) can also be used. Ceramics are also harmless to health, but the processing of the material is much more complex and there is still a lack of long-term empirical studies.

Can every dentist place implants?

Basically yes. A general dentist can theoretically learn the basics of implantology himself and offer safe and competent treatment. Ideally, however, the dentist can already demonstrate theoretical and practical experience in the field of implantology. Only then can the patient be sure that he is being treated by an experienced implantologist. Whether for crowns or bridges – you should definitely go for professional dentists.

Our dental practice in Zug has a very experienced dentists-team, that can look back on many years of practice in this area and some are even members of the Swiss Society for Oral Implantology (SGI) and the world-renowned working group International Team for Implantology (ITI).

Constant exchange with other dentists and experts from all disciplines is very important to us – especially in the discipline of implantology. With us you are not only in safe hands, but you can also trust that we are always up to date with the latest developments when it comes to dental implants and know how to effectively use the latest findings in dentistry. In addition, each procedure is individually optimized for you – whether it is bone augmentation (if there is not enough of your own bone to fix an implant) or the insertion of the dental implant itself.

Contact us anytime – we will be happy to advise you personally!
