Preserving neighbouring teeth
For a single gap, healthy neighbouring teeth usually do not need to be prepared for an implant crown, unlike what may be necessary for a conventional bridge.

More than filling a gap
Greater support.
Better quality of life.
An implant acts as an artificial tooth root. It supports a dental restoration tailored to your teeth and your wishes.
More confidence in everyday life
Implants can support fixed restorations or improve denture stability. We discuss the appropriate solution based on your findings.
A harmonious smile
The shape and colour of the visible restoration are matched to your teeth. The aim is a solution that suits you in both function and appearance.
As individual as your teeth
Which solution
is right for you?
A missing tooth, a larger gap or an unstable denture: implants can serve different purposes.
One missing tooth
Closing a single gap
An implant with a crown can replace a single missing tooth. The restoration is fitted into your existing dental arch.
Several missing teeth
Restoring larger gaps
An implant-supported bridge can replace several missing teeth. The number and position of implants are individually planned.
Many or all teeth missing
Greater stability for dentures
Implants can stabilise a removable denture or allow a fixed restoration. We assess which option is suitable for you.
Preserving teeth comes first.
An implant is not automatically the first choice. Before you decide, we assess the existing teeth and discuss alternatives such as bridges or dentures.
The foundation for stability
Bone grafting.
When more support is needed.
An implant needs sufficient supporting jawbone. If the available bone is limited, we assess whether grafting can improve the conditions.

Assess carefully. Plan precisely.
- Understanding the starting pointWe assess your teeth, gums and available bone. Where indicated, 3D X-rays / CBCT support treatment planning.

Step by step
Your journey to
your new restoration.
We want you to understand what is planned and why. Treatment involves several stages, with their extent determined by your findings.
Consultation & examination
We discuss your wishes, examine your mouth and take medical conditions and medication into account.
Planning & costs
We explain the suitable restoration, possible alternatives, risks and expected costs.
Implant placement & healing
The implant is placed and then needs time to integrate with the bone. The duration and any temporary restoration are discussed individually.
Restoration & aftercare
The planned restoration is fitted. Afterwards, careful cleaning and regular check-ups help support its long-term care.

Well informed.
With confidence.
Here are some initial answers. We determine which treatment suits you during a personal examination.
Am I suitable for dental implants?
This can only be assessed after an examination. Important factors include available bone, the health of your gums and teeth, and your general health. Please tell us about medical conditions and medication. Even with limited bone, we can assess whether bone grafting is an option.
Is implant placement painful?
The procedure is generally performed under local anaesthesia. You may feel pressure or movement. Pain and swelling are possible afterwards. We discuss anaesthesia and aftercare with you. Nitrous oxide may also be considered for treatment anxiety.
How long does the entire treatment take?
Treatment includes planning, implant placement, healing and fitting the restoration. Healing can take several months. Bone grafting or additional steps may extend the overall duration. We discuss your personal timeline after the examination.
Do I need bone grafting?
Not always. Bone grafting may be needed if there is insufficient supporting jawbone. We assess the available bone and explain whether any additional procedure is appropriate.
How long do dental implants last?
Implants are intended as a long-term solution. Their lifespan depends on factors including oral hygiene, regular check-ups, bone and gum health, and individual risk factors. Parts of the restoration may wear over time and need replacement.
What are the risks?
As with any surgical procedure, complications are possible. These include infection, bleeding, impaired healing and failure of the implant to integrate. Depending on the position, nerves or the maxillary sinus may be affected. Inflammation around the implant can also develop later. We discuss your personal risks and alternatives before treatment.
What should I do after the procedure?
You receive tailored instructions about wound care, food, activity and follow-up appointments. Smoking can impair healing. Please contact the practice if symptoms worsen, bleeding continues or an implant feels loose.
Can implants stabilise an existing denture?
Implants can improve denture stability. Whether your existing denture can be adapted or a new restoration is needed depends on its design and your mouth. We assess this during the consultation.
How much does treatment cost?
Costs depend on the findings, number of implants, type of restoration and any additional treatment such as bone grafting. The scope and costs are discussed beforehand. Deposit and instalment arrangements are possible.
How does the money-back guarantee work?
The practice offers a money-back guarantee for implants and bone grafting. The practice will explain the specific requirements, scope and conditions directly. Please have these explained before making your decision.
