Implants are often referred to as screw-in or implanted teeth because they replace natural tooth roots with artificial roots (metal screw-in cylinders) made of titanium. They are an excellent alternative to artificial dentures or tooth bridges that cause problems or do not fit properly, and they provide solutions when the absence of natural tooth roots makes the placement of fixed prosthetic work impossible.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"dp-single-media-container dp-margin-bottom--s\">\n    <div class=\"dp-media-single--100\">\n        <figure class=\"dp-aspect--16-9 dp-image__container\">\n                        \n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"dp-media-fit dp-img-focus--center-center\" \n                src=\"https:\/\/www.advancedimplantclinics.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/emfyteuma.jpg\" \n                alt=\"Dental Implant\">\n        \n                    \n                    <\/figure>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The method used to place the dental implant during surgery is determined by the type of implant and the condition of your jawbone. Implant placement may involve multiple procedures and stages, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.advancedimplantclinics.gr\/en\/advanced-dental-implant-technology\" data-schema-attribute=\"about\">modern implant technology<\/a> now allows you to get <a href=\"https:\/\/www.advancedimplantclinics.gr\/en\/all-on-4-dental-implants-teeth-in-a-day\" data-schema-attribute=\"about\">teeth in one day<\/a> with only four implants in cases where all of your teeth are missing.

Several <a href=\"https:\/\/www.advancedimplantclinics.gr\/en\/dentists\" data-schema-attribute=\"about\">experienced dentists<\/a> work together to plan the dental implant procedure:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Oral surgeon<\/strong>. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.advancedimplantclinics.gr\/en\/dentists\/implantologist-dr-nikolaos-raptis\" data-schema-attribute=\"about\">Medical professional<\/a> who specializes in mouth, jaw, and face conditions.

Alternatively, they may refer you to an experienced implant dentist for evaluation and treatment, often with a financial benefit (commission) to them, which raises the cost of your treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be sure to inquire:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The specific course of treatment he suggests and its stages.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What background does he have in the area?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The overall cost of the procedure (from start to finish).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Which options are available.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Whether a certificate with a lifetime warranty is included with the implant.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How he will participate in the process (if he refers you to an implantologist).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Ask for a second opinion if you are unsatisfied with the responses you have received.

A significant part of this time is devoted to treatment and the growth of new bone in the jaw. Depending on your case, the procedure that has been done, or the materials used, sometimes some steps can be merged.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"dp-single-media-container dp-margin-bottom--s\">\n    <div class=\"dp-media-single--100\">\n        <div class=\"dp-aspect--16-9 dp-video__container perfmatters-lazy-css-bg\">\n            <iframe loading=\"lazy\" \n                title = \"Dental implants: The procedure and everything you need to know about dental implants.\" \n                src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/uXOx0zwhw4o?rel=0&#038;cc_load_policy=1\" \n                width=\"560\" \n                height=\"315\" \n                frameborder=\"0\">\n            <\/iframe>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>During the surgery to place the dental implant, your surgeon makes a small incision in your gums and exposes the bone. Using special equipment, a special well is prepared in the bone in the area and the dental implant is placed. The dental implant plays the role of the root of the tooth and is placed entirely within the jawbone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At this stage, you will still have a gap in the place where your natural tooth is missing. A type of partial, temporary denture can usually be placed for aesthetic reasons if required. You can remove this temporary denture to clean it or when you sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Waiting for bone growth<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the dental implant is placed in your jaw, osseointegration begins. During this process, the jawbone regenerates and fuses with the surface of the dental implant. This process, which can take up to a few months depending on the case, helps provide a stable base for the implants to function like the roots of natural teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Placement of the abutment<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once osseointegration is complete, you may need additional surgery to place the prosthetic abutment, which is the part of the implant on which the socket (crown) will eventually be placed. This surgery is very minor and is done under local anaesthetic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To place the abutment &#8211; a special prosthetic abutment (healing abutment in the first days and prosthetic abutment afterwards) on the implant:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Your oral surgeon makes a very small incision in your gums to expose the dental implant.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The healing abutment is attached (screwed) to the dental implant.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The gums in the area are shaped and healed around the healing abutment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In some cases, the abutment is placed at the same time as the surgical placement of the dental implant. This means that you will not need the extra surgical stage. The abutment is visible when you open your mouth &#8211; and will be so until your dentist completes the prosthetic restoration. Some people don&#8217;t like this appearance and prefer to have the bracket placed in a separate procedure.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>After the healing abutment is placed, your gums will need to heal for about two weeks before the prosthetic abutment is attached to the artificial tooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Learn more in the article about the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.advancedimplantclinics.gr\/en\/steps-of-dental-implant-surgery\" data-schema-attribute=\"about\">Implant Restoration Process<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Selection of your new teeth<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once your gums are healed, impressions will be taken of your mouth and the rest of your teeth. These impressions are used to make the crown (socket), which is your artificial tooth. The crown cannot be placed until your jawbone is strong enough to support the use of the new tooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You and your dentist can choose artificial teeth that are removable, fixed, or a combination of both:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mobile &#8211; removable prosthetic work<\/strong>. This type is similar to a conventional removable denture and can be a partial or full denture. It contains artificial white teeth surrounded by pink acrylic material. It includes in its construction a special attachment and is connected to its complementary attachment placed on the implant (male-female attachment logic). It can be easily removed for repair or daily cleaning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Fixed &#8211; stationary prosthetic work<\/strong>. In this type, the artificial tooth is permanently screwed and fixed to the special prosthetic abutment located on the implant. You cannot remove the tooth for cleaning or during sleep. Most of the time, each artificial tooth (socket) is attached to its own dental implant. However, because implants are extremely strong, a few implants restore many teeth that are bridged together.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"headline-7\">Complications after placement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the risk of complications is zero, whether you have dental implant surgery in one stage or multiple stages, you may experience some of the following typical side effects and problems associated with any type of oral surgery, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Swelling of your gums and face<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bruising of the skin and gums<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pain at the implant site<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Minor bleeding<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>To manage pain at the implant site, you may need medications, such as pain medication after surgery.

If the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.advancedimplantclinics.gr\/en\/dental-implant-pain\" data-schema-attribute=\"about\">Tooth Implant Pain<\/a>, swelling or any other problem worsens in the days after surgery, contact your dentist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After each stage of surgery, you may need to eat soft foods while the surgical area is healing.

After a few days, they are easily removed by your dentist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regarding complications and the possibility of failure, learn all about them in our guide to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.advancedimplantclinics.gr\/en\/dental-implant-complications-and-risks\" data-schema-attribute=\"about\">Problems with Dental Implants<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-group dp-overflow-hidden\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"headline-8\">Photos before and after placing implants<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"splide dp-slider--default\" \n    data-splide ='{\"type\":\"slide\",\"perPage\":2,\"speed\":1000,\"breakpoints\":{\"600\":{\"perPage\":1}},\"gap\":\"1em\"}' \n    aria-label=\"Media carousel\">\n    <div class=\"splide__track\">\n        <ul class=\"splide__list\">\n                                        <li class=\"dp-aspect--1-1 splide__slide\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"dp-media-fit dp-image__container dp-img-focus--center-center\" \n                    src=\"https:\/\/www.advancedimplantclinics.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/dental-implants-before-after-results-1.jpg\" \n                    alt=\"\">\n            <\/li>\n                \n                                                    <li class=\"dp-aspect--1-1 splide__slide\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"dp-media-fit dp-image__container dp-img-focus--center-center\" \n                    src=\"https:\/\/www.advancedimplantclinics.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/dental-implants-before-after-results-2.jpg\" \n                    alt=\"\">\n            <\/li>\n                \n                                                    <li class=\"dp-aspect--1-1 splide__slide\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"dp-media-fit dp-image__container dp-img-focus--center-center\" \n                    src=\"https:\/\/www.advancedimplantclinics.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/dental-implants-before-after-results-3.jpg\" \n                    alt=\"\">\n            <\/li>\n                \n                                                    <li class=\"dp-aspect--1-1 splide__slide\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"dp-media-fit dp-image__container dp-img-focus--center-center\" \n                    src=\"https:\/\/www.advancedimplantclinics.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/dental-implants-before-after-results-4.jpg\" \n                    alt=\"\">\n            <\/li>\n                \n                                                    <li class=\"dp-aspect--1-1 splide__slide\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"dp-media-fit dp-image__container dp-img-focus--center-center\" \n                    src=\"https:\/\/www.advancedimplantclinics.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/dental-implants-before-after-results-5.jpg\" \n                    alt=\"\">\n            <\/li>\n                \n                                                    <li class=\"dp-aspect--1-1 splide__slide\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"dp-media-fit dp-image__container dp-img-focus--center-center\" \n                    src=\"https:\/\/www.advancedimplantclinics.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/dental-implants-before-after-results-6.jpg\" \n                    alt=\"\">\n            <\/li>\n                \n                                                    <li class=\"dp-aspect--1-1 splide__slide\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"dp-media-fit dp-image__container dp-img-focus--center-center\" \n                    src=\"https:\/\/www.advancedimplantclinics.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/dental-implants-before-after-results-7.jpg\" \n                    alt=\"\">\n            <\/li>\n                \n                                                    <li class=\"dp-aspect--1-1 splide__slide\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"dp-media-fit dp-image__container dp-img-focus--center-center\" \n                    src=\"https:\/\/www.advancedimplantclinics.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/dental-implants-before-after-results-8.jpg\" \n                    alt=\"\">\n            <\/li>\n                \n                            <\/ul>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"headline-9\">The success rate of implants<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The vast majority of dental implants are successful. The success rate of implants is 98% in the first 5 years, while at 15 years the rate ranges from 82-95%, according to data from the American Association of Implantologists (AAID). High success rates depend directly on the detailed planning of the surgery and the prosthetic restoration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, sometimes, the bone does not adequately integrate the metal implant. Smoking or inadequate cleaning, for example, may contribute to implant failure and complications. If osseointegration is not done adequately, the implant is removed, the bone is cleaned and you can try the procedure again in about three months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Implants can last permanently. But it all depends on the care you take for your implants and your overall oral health. So the answer to the question \u201chow long do dental implants last?\u201d is that with proper care, they will stay in your mouth forever and improve your quality of life.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"headline-10\"><strong>Why choose us for your implants<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At Advanced Implant Clinics, we are committed to providing you with exceptional and innovative implant technology.
