Implantology
costs
The prices depend on the initial situation, e.g. bone quality, numbers of implants to be inserted and type of prosthesis. Bone-regenerating measures increase the total price. Binding information can only be given on the basis of examination results. A rewarding investment: conventional dentures are not always the cheapest solution on a long term perspective. Although the financial effort of implantological solutions is greater in the moment of intervention, it usually pays off during long years of perfect usage. The costs of such implantation processes vary according to the individual case.
Risks
Medical or surgical interventions are always linked to certain risks. Although the design of the implant, longterm experiences and new surgery technologies assure latest knowhow, complications may occur. Possible risks depend on the general health status of the patient. Oral hygiene or conditioned healing processes due to previous affections (e.g., diabetes, osteoporosis) can reduce the stability of the implant. Smokers, too, have lost their implant during recovery time.
Pain
The insertion of the implant is usually performed under the effect of local anesthesia, in order to have pain free at all times. In case you would suffer from post operative pains, your dentist will gladly help you acutely. Experience shows that everyday life is problematic, even right after the operation.
Satisfaction
Good feeling: According to a study with more than 10000 patients in Germany, 97% of the questioned persons were "very satisfied" or "satisfied" with their implant-supported solutions. The percentage of patients with this procedure is only 86%.
Age group
Implants can be inserted as soon as the jaw has outgrown. Young patients, therefore, have to wait until the bone has stopped growing. Implants to not require any age limits. Ask your dentist for advice: He wants to discuss your individual situation.
Implant care
An implant can last a lifetime. Commitment by the patient. Implants require just as much care as natural teeth, even a bit more. Without diligent and conscient oral hygiene, having an implantologic solution makes little sense. Regular sittings with your dentist for controlling and prophylaxis purposes are indispensable.
Bleeding gums
If your gums tend to bleed even at the slightest stimulus, this may be an indication that it may be affected by some kind of disease. Mostly, these are inflammations of the gums which are caused by microorganisms, or, in case of dental prostheses, unfavorable completion rims. In order to get rid of these bacteria a diligent professional dental cleaning is necessary. By this, the teeth are free from hard and soft stains, which does not discourage the tooth surface, but also give microorganisms a place to hide from regular cleaning instruments. Another measure in strengthening your gums is adding extra folic acid and vitamins C + E to your body.
Halitosis – bath breath
The reasons for halitosis are many, the important thing to remember is that halitosis itself is not the disease, but a strong indicator for other major affects. We differentiate between shortterm bad breath, cuased by spicy food like onions and long term, constant halitosis.
Calculus
Hardened and calcified stains become calculus. It can be traced in the majority of the people. It can not be removed by contact with saliva. You mostly find calculus near the salivary glands, because this is where the highest concentration of minerals in the saliva is found. Since most of the salivary glands are located under the tongue, we find calculus on the inner side of the teeth, nearest to these areas.
Additional Dental Insurance
Average health insurances reduce their services and financial support in dental treatments. They pay a fixed sum according to the effort, which generally covers only a minimum part of your expenses in the purchase of dental prostheses. The rest has to be paid by the patient himself. An additional dental insurance could be considered as a great deal of the costs to be settled on the patient’s side.
