Implants and immediate implants
Dental implants are like artificial tooth roots that are inserted into the jaw to replace missing teeth. The implants serve as a stable base for dental restorations such as crowns, bridges or dentures. Dental implants are usually made of biocompatible materials such as titanium, which allows them to fuse with the surrounding bone through a process called osseointegration.
The process of placing dental implants includes several steps, inserting the implant into the jawbone, after a recovery period the implant integrates into the surrounding bone and forms an anchor on which the tooth restoration can be built. After the implant has been fully integrated, additional parts are attached to the implant such as a structure on which the final restoration is attached, special connectors can also be attached to the implants to stabilize a prosthesis.
At the end of the process, restoration on implants is a natural looking and functional replacement for the missing teeth. Dental implants offer many benefits, including improved chewing ability, improved speech, restored aesthetics and prevention of bone loss in the jaw. They are designed to be durable over time and can significantly improve the quality of life of people with missing teeth.
Implants and immediate implants
Why is it right to perform dental implants only by a specialist in oral and maxillofacial surgery?
Dental implant is a sophisticated and complex surgical procedure that requires precision and expertise. It involves the surgical insertion of titanium screws into the jawbone to act as a replacement for natural teeth or to stabilize dentures.
Many patients get dental implants and then suffer from loss of sensation in the tongue or from the passage of fluids from the mouth to the nasal cavity or recurrent infections and finally lose the implants and are left with tremendous mental anguish, it is essential that dental implants are performed by a specialist.

At first glance, the procedure seems simple, but this is often not the case and in many cases involves risks to the sensory nerve in the jaw or to the sinuses and nasal cavity, due to the complex nature of the procedure and the potential impact on oral health.
"Immediate dental implant" in one day
"One-day dental implant" refers to a specific dental implant procedure known as immediate loading or same-day implants. In this approach, dental implants are inserted and temporary restorations (such as crowns or dentures) attached on the same day. This allows patients to leave the dental office with functioning teeth immediately after the implant surgery, eliminating the need for a prolonged healing period or wearing removable dentures during the osseointegration process. However, it is important to note that not all patients are eligible for implants on the same day, and the appropriateness of this approach depends on individual factors and a dentist's assessment.
