A single implant as root substitute is the most elegant way of achieving a cosmetically ideal closure of the gap. In jaws with no teeth at all, dental implants are a secure fixation method for removable full dentures and so spare the patient the usual disadvantages of conventional "false teeth".

Straumann's pure titanium implants are produced in accordance with the highest quality and hygiene standards. A gentle surgical procedure is used to place the implants in the jawbone. The implants remain undisturbed for a period of usually 6 weeks (in healthy patients with good bone quality and quantity), while the bone remodels around them, forming a strong biological bond, similar to the bone between your natural tooth roots and jawbone.

Unlike most types of implants, there is usually no need for a second surgical procedure with the Straumann implant. This is more comfortable for you and much easier on the delicate gum tissue surrounding your implant supported replacement teeth. Once the bone has remodeled around the implants and the foundation is stable, a small connector is attached to them.

Your new replacement teeth, which will be custom made with both functional and cosmetic needs in mind, will be firmly attached to the connector. Fabricating your new teeth involves one or more appointments to ensure proper size, shape, color, and fit.

Why consider anything less for the restoration of your oral health?
