How a dental implant works
An implant is a component placed in the bone to provide support in place of a tooth root. An abutment and the visible restoration are attached to it. At DENTAURUM, your plan takes into account how many teeth are missing, where they are located and the conditions for restoring them.
During your consultation, we discuss both implant treatment and suitable alternatives. Gum health, bone volume, general health conditions, medication and smoking all matter. Preparatory treatment is sometimes needed before implant placement.

Options and indications
Treatment steps
01
Assessment
Examination, medical history and any investigations indicated.
02
Treatment plan
We discuss the stages, alternatives and separate costs.
03
Implant placement and healing
Implant placement is followed by a period of integration with the bone.
04
The final restoration
Once healing has been assessed, the restoration is made and checked.
Care after treatment
Implants need daily cleaning and regular check-ups. Cleaning around a restoration is adapted to its shape. Tell your dentist about any movement, pain or persistent bleeding; do not wait for your next scheduled visit.
Frequently asked questions
Can I receive my permanent tooth on the same day?
Not in every case. Immediate restoration is only possible in selected situations. Your dentist will decide whether healing time and a temporary restoration are needed.
What does the treatment cost include?
Ask for a separate breakdown for the implant, abutment and crown. Investigations, bone grafting or other procedures may involve additional costs if needed.
How long does treatment take?
The schedule depends on healing and any preparatory procedures. Your consultation provides estimated stages for your case, rather than a single timeline for everyone.
