For adults, the partial or total loss of their teeth represents a serious psychological, emotional and physical blow.
Biocompatible titanium dental implants are the only real dental solution to restoring your teeth – strong and attractive just like natural teeth – enabling you to rediscover the joy of life.
A dental implant is, in fact, the artificial replacement for the root of the tooth to which prostheses can be anchored.
The benefits of a wise choice
Using healthy teeth to support mobile prostheses with unattractive attachments, or indeed filing teeth to make room for bridges, can lead to the premature loss of stability in the teeth themselves and of the bone, and to the premature ageing of a person’s facial features.
Vice-versa, modern osseointegrated implantology together with innovative, highly attractive prosthetic appliances, preserves your natural appearance and enables you to smile, eat and talk in a confident, natural manner. The various prosthetic solutions combined with the implants, replace natural teeth from both functional and aesthetic points of view.
Reconstruction, prostheses,
technology and implants
Reconstruction of a single tooth
In cases of single edentulism (when one single tooth is missing), the insertion of a dental implant safeguards the healthy adjacent teeth and faithfully reproduces the appearance of the natural teeth present, in terms of both shape and colour.
Reconstruction of more than one tooth
If you are missing several teeth, that is, in the case of partial edentulism, two or more dental implants will support an extremely stable, strong prosthetic structure, resulting in teeth with the appearance and function of your natural teeth.
Fixed dentures on implants – upper or lower jaw
In the case of total edentulia, that is, when all teeth are missing, dental implants make it possible for an extremely stable, functional full denture to be permanently anchored both in the upper maxillary and in the lower jaw. If sufficient good bone is present, this kind of denture can be anchored using just four implants.
Removeable dentures on implants – upper or lower jaw
In the case of total edentulia, that is, when all teeth are missing, dental implants make it possible for an extremely stable, functional full denture to be permanently anchored both in the upper maxillary and in the lower jaw. This kind of denture can be anchored using just two implants.
Technology for the patient’s benefit
Today it is now possible to perform a diagnosis and plan a surgical operation for the insertion of implants, by using computerized technology that speeds up and simplifies the operation, thus rendering the implantation much less invasive, reducing operating times, and making the post-operative period more comfortable for the patient.
Types of implant
Prodent Italia offers a wide range of products capable of meeting the most demanding requirements of both dentists and patients. This range includes conical, cylindrical and very short implants (used in cases where little bone is present), thus permitting any type of prosthetic implant treatment to be carried out. All Prodent implants are created using the latest technology, according to the most recent studies, guaranteeing a modern, reliable product.
Ask your dentist
Prevention by means of regular check-ups at the dentist’s and at the dental hygienist’s, reducing or stopping smoking altogether, reducing alcohol consumption, functional and aesthetic restoration in healthy mouths, and implants to replace missing teeth without having to sacrifice any remaining healthy teeth.
These few suggestions can help us preserve our teeth and proper oral health. Conservative and aesthetic treatment is important because it positively affects the psychological and physical health of each one of us, and is of fundamental importance if we are to maintain a well-groomed, attractive appearance: in fact, a nice smile is undoubtedly a benefit in social relations with others.
Ask your dentist for further information about these simple rules, and about how implantation treatment works.
Your implant passport
At the end of the implant operation, your dentist will give you your implant passport containing full details of the appliances used, including code number, production batch number and position in the mouth. In the case of necessity, and wherever you are, this document could prove extremely useful for the purpose of any further implant treatment you may have.
