How an implant heals in
Following thorough diagnostics and planning, we place the implant into the jawbone as an outpatient procedure under local anaesthesia. During the individual healing period, usually six to twelve weeks, the bone fuses firmly with the implant.
During this phase, you usually receive a temporary dental restoration. Once healing is complete, the implant takes on the role of an artificial tooth root and securely supports crowns, bridges or dentures.
Das Wichtigste auf einen Blick
- Das Implantat wird nach Diagnostik und Planung ambulant unter örtlicher Betäubung in den Kieferknochen gesetzt.
- In der individuellen Einheilzeit von meist sechs bis zwölf Wochen verwächst der Knochen fest mit dem Implantat.
- Während der Einheilphase erhalten Patientinnen und Patienten in der Regel einen provisorischen Zahnersatz.
- Nach abgeschlossener Einheilung übernimmt das Implantat die Funktion einer künstlichen Zahnwurzel für Kronen, Brücken oder Prothesen.
