Therapeutic Indications

Implantology is for patients suffering from tooth loss or an uncomfortable removable dental prosthesis.

The implant is placed at the level of the missing or damaged root. This allows one or more teeth to be replaced without being supported by neighboring teeth (as with a bridge).

Implants can be used to replace removable dental work

Implants stabilize removable dental work with a press-button system

Safe for most patients, implants are strongly disadvised in specific cases :

• High-risk heart conditions (e.g. prosthetic heart valves, antecedents of infective endocarditis, mitral insufficiency, aortic stenosis or insufficiency)
• Uncontrolled systematic disorders
• Patient age (erg too young or in growth period)
• Psychiatric disorders (e.g. schizophrenia, paranoia, hysteria…)
• Alcohol or drug addiction
• Irradiated patients
