Modelled on nature
Dental implants look and feel like natural teeth
Implants serve as artificial roots to which new teeth are attached. They take over the function of the natural roots and, like them, transfer chewing forces into the jawbone.
Fixed, implant-supported teeth are meant to feel like your own: they sit firmly and blend harmoniously with the teeth around them. Dentures, too, can be anchored securely.
Solutions at a glance
The completely edentulous jaw
Mehr erfahren →All the teeth in the upper or lower jaw are missing. A quarter of all people aged 65 to 75 have no teeth. Losing them brings aesthetic as well as functional problems, and a denture that does not sit securely is a particular hindrance for older patients.
Several missing teeth
Mehr erfahren →Two or more teeth are missing. A fixed bridge anchored on dental implants provides optimum stability and an aesthetically demanding result.
A single missing tooth
Mehr erfahren →A tooth and its root are missing. A dental implant with a ceramic crown is the most demanding way, aesthetically, to close the gap.
A fixed implant bridge
All the teeth replaced by a fixed bridge anchored on several implants.
An implant restoration with a bar
A bar is screwed onto the implants and holds the denture in place.
An implant-supported removable denture
A removable denture held by the locator system.

Guide
What you will find here
The path through treatment
The topics range from diagnostics and treatment planning through placing the implants to the prosthetic options – explained step by step and in plain language.
Dental implantology is a form of rehabilitation with high, predictable prospects of success and a firm part of the treatment range of many dental practices.
For reference
The cost of implants is explained with examples. You will also find a glossary and, under Dental Knowledge, explanations of dental terms.
Under News we collect current reports from the press, and in the video library animated films illustrate this complex subject.
Technology
Digital diagnostics and guided implantology
Digital diagnostics and three-dimensional cone beam computed tomography open up reliable diagnostic and therapeutic possibilities. They are the basis of guided implantology, which allows implants to be placed more gently.
Cone beam computed tomography can reduce how invasive a placement is and lower the risk of complications. It should not, however, be used routinely – it belongs in the cases where it genuinely adds knowledge.

Answered briefly
Frequently asked questions
A dental implant is an artificial tooth root, usually made of titanium, that is placed in the jawbone. Once it has healed in, it carries a crown, a bridge or a denture.
For a single-tooth implant including the crown the cost is usually between 1,400 and 3,000 euros. Bone grafting or an immediate restoration increase the figure. What counts is the treatment and cost plan drawn up by your dentist.

Focus
The questions patients ask most
Three questions that come up in almost every consultation – answered briefly here.
Ceramic implants
The use of zirconium dioxide in implantology is relatively new. Because of its high flexural strength and dimensional stability it offers a restoration option of its own for patients sensitive to metal or radiation.
About implant materials
Implants without pain
In most cases an individually adjusted local anaesthetic is enough for a pain-free procedure. Patient and dentist decide together which form of pain control is best.
About pain-free treatment
Avoiding peri-implantitis
Like natural teeth, implants depend on good care. Where oral hygiene is inadequate the tissue around the implant can become inflamed – the most common cause of late complications.
