Dental implantology is a branch of dentistry that is dedicated to replacing missing teeth through the placement of dental implants. These implants, generally made of titanium, act as artificial roots to which dental crowns, bridges or prostheses are fixed, thus returning the functionality and aesthetics of a complete smile.

What is dental implantology?

The dental implantation process consists of several stages:

• Initial evaluation: The dentist will perform a thorough examination of your mouth to determine if you are a suitable candidate for treatment and plan the procedure.
• Implant placement: A small incision is made in the gum and the implant is placed in the maxillary or mandibular bone.
• Osseointegration period: During this time, the implant fuses with the bone, creating a solid foundation for future restorations.
• Placement of the prosthesis: Once the implant has been completely integrated, the crown, bridge or prosthesis is placed on it.

Advantages of dental implantology

• Aesthetics: Dental implants offer a highly natural aesthetic solution, restoring confidence in your smile.
• Functionality: They allow you to chew, speak and smile normally, significantly improving quality of life.
• Durability: With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime.
• Bone preservation: By stimulating bone, implants prevent bone resorption that often occurs after tooth loss.
• Comfort: Implants feel and function like natural teeth.

Is dental implantology painful?

The placement of dental implants is usually performed under local anesthesia, so the patient does not feel pain during the procedure. After surgery, it is normal to experience some discomfort and swelling, which can be controlled with pain relievers.

Why do you need to have it done by a qualified orthodontist?

Although many dentists offer implantology treatments, it is advisable to go to a professional specialized in orthodontics for the following reasons:

• Anatomical knowledge: Orthodontists have a deep understanding of facial and dental anatomy, which allows them to plan and execute implant treatments more accurately.
• Experience in complex treatments: If you have special needs or your case requires more complex treatment, an orthodontist will be better prepared to offer you a personalized solution.
• Comprehensive approach: Orthodontists consider oral health as a whole, not just the restoration of missing teeth. They can identify and treat underlying problems that may affect the success of implant treatment.
• Aesthetics: Orthodontists have a special sensitivity for dental aesthetics and can help you achieve a beautiful and natural smile.

In conclusion, dental implantology is an excellent option to recover a complete and functional smile. By choosing a qualified orthodontist, you ensure that you receive safe, effective and personalized treatment.
