Clinical Interests

Dental Implants are advanced restorative solutions used to replace missing teeth. An implant is a biocompatible titanium or zirconia screw that is surgically placed into the jawbone, acting as an artificial tooth root. Once integrated with the bone, it provides a strong and permanent foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures.

Indications for Dental Implants

• Replacement of single or multiple missing teeth
• To support bridges or dentures for better stability
• To restore function and aesthetics in patients with complete tooth loss
• For patients seeking a permanent alternative to removable dentures

Surgical Placement Procedure

• Consultation & Planning – Clinical examination, X-rays/CBCT scans, and treatment planning.
• Anesthesia & Preparation – Local anesthesia is given to ensure a painless procedure.
• Implant Site Preparation – A small incision is made in the gum to expose the jawbone.
• Drilling & Placement – A precise hole is drilled, and the implant screw is inserted into the bone.
• Healing & Osseointegration – The implant fuses with the bone over 3–6 months.
• Abutment Placement – A connector (abutment) is attached once healing is complete.
• Final Prosthesis – A crown, bridge, or denture is fixed over the implant for natural function and appearance.

Benefits of Dental Implants

• Permanent and long-lasting tooth replacement.
• Prevents bone loss by stimulating jawbone.
• Improves chewing, speech, and overall oral function.
• Looks and feels like natural teeth.
• Maintains facial aesthetics and prevents premature aging.
• No need to trim adjacent healthy teeth (unlike bridges).
