Dental Implant Consultation and Treatment Planning
At VLIJT Tandartsen, we begin the dental implant process with a comprehensive consultation. During this appointment, our experienced dentists will assess your oral health, evaluate the feasibility of dental implants, and develop a personalized treatment plan. This ensures the implant procedure is tailored to your unique needs and goals.
The treatment plan outlines the step-by-step process, including any preparatory procedures, the implant placement, and the final restoration. Our team will explain each stage in detail, address your questions and concerns, and work closely with you to achieve the best possible outcome.
Dental Implant Placement and Osseointegration
Once the treatment plan is finalized, our dentists will surgically place the titanium or zirconium dental implant into your jawbone. This process, known as implant placement, is performed under local anesthesia to ensure your comfort. The implant will then undergo a process called osseointegration, where it naturally fuses with the surrounding bone over several months.
During this healing period, we may provide you with a temporary restoration to maintain your smile's appearance and function. Our team will monitor your progress closely and schedule follow-up appointments to ensure the implant is integrating properly.
Dental Implant Restoration and Aftercare
After the implant has fully integrated with your jawbone, our dentists will attach the final restoration, such as a crown, bridge, or denture. This restoration is custom-designed to match the color, shape, and function of your natural teeth, seamlessly blending into your smile.
Proper oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups are essential for the long-term success of your dental implant. Our team will provide you with detailed instructions on how to care for your implant and ensure it remains healthy and stable for years to come.
