Why should you get a dental or jaw implant?

Our dental surgery experts at UNIQSMILE® offer comprehensive solutions for dental problems, especially in the area of dental implants. Dental implants are the ideal solution if you want to replace missing teeth or restore permanent stability to your dentition. Medical indications for dental implants include tooth loss due to injury, decay or periodontitis.

How dental implants work: gently towards a natural smile

Tooth and jaw implants consist of the actual implant in the jawbone, a connecting piece and a crown or dental prosthesis. The latter look like natural teeth and can significantly improve your smile and appearance. They offer an aesthetically pleasing solution to replace missing teeth. Implants also allow normal chewing and speaking functions. They provide stability and comfort when eating and speaking, significantly improving your quality of life. The complete package of an implant screw and tooth replacement is therefore a permanent solution. With good care, screw implants can last a lifetime, unlike traditional tooth replacement options such as a bridge or dentures, which need to be replaced regularly.

The jawbones are also stimulated by a dental implant, which helps to prevent bone loss. This is particularly important to preserve the natural facial volume and contours. Implant bodies do not require damage or removal of healthy neighboring teeth, as is the case with bridges. This preserves the integrity of the surrounding teeth and the procedure can be minimally invasive.

High-quality dental implants at UNIQSMILE® - professional, healthy and aesthetic

With UNIQSMILE® you have the choice between dental and jaw implants for single tooth replacement, partial replacement or the attachment of full dentures, giving you maximum flexibility. We also attach great importance to aesthetic and functional aspects. Our implants and the overlying dentures not only look natural, but also enable optimum chewing and speaking function.

Our clinic also offers holistic care, from consultation to implantation and aftercare. We are here for you to ensure that the entire treatment process runs smoothly. We offer comprehensive solutions and individualized care to ensure that your smile shines again and that you benefit from the advantages of modern implantology through computer-aided 3D planning, drilling templates and X-ray technology. Prior to treatment, you will be fully informed by the oral surgeon in charge about the costs, possible complications and the risks after treatment, so that you can start your treatment with peace of mind and a good feeling.

The advantages for you

Dental implants: Material & treatment concepts with UNIQSMILE®

At UNIQSMILE®, we use state-of-the-art technologies such as virtual planning procedures and high-quality materials to insert dental implants in a minimally invasive way. We offer both implants in the upper jaw and implants in the lower jaw. Our team ensures that the implants are perfectly matched to your individual needs.

Proven treatment methods for your dental implant at UNIQSMILE®

Various treatment methods are available for dental implant treatment. The choice always depends on the patient’s individual needs and circumstances.

Single tooth implants: This is the most common form of dental implant treatment, where a single missing tooth is replaced with an implant and crown.
Implant-supported bridges: This method is used when several neighboring teeth are missing. The bridge is attached to implants instead of grinding adjacent teeth.
All-on-4 or All-on-6 implants: In this procedure, a few implants are used to stabilize a complete row of teeth (upper or lower jaw bone) and to attach dentures.
Sinus lift and bone augmentation: In patients with insufficient bone mass in the upper jaw, a sinus lift or bone augmentation can be performed to create sufficient bone for implant placement.

A treatment plan is drawn up in advance together with the treating specialist (dentist), depending on the patient and their wishes.

Innovative materials for dental implantology

The choice of treatment method and material depends on individual factors such as bone quality, esthetic preferences, type of tooth gap and health condition. Your dentist will carry out a thorough examination and consultation to determine the most suitable option for your dental implant treatment. Our implantologists only use high-quality materials for clean aesthetics.

Titanium is the most commonly used material for dental implants due to its excellent biocompatibility and strength. Titanium implants have a long history of success and are available in various designs. Zirconium implants are a metal-free alternative to titanium and are characterized by their natural tooth color. They are particularly suitable for patients who may be allergic to titanium.

Ceramic implants are also metal-free and offer an aesthetically pleasing option. They are very well tolerated and do not corrode. Hybrid implants combine different materials in order to utilize the advantages of different materials. For example, a titanium implant can be used with a zirconium-veneered crown. Some implants are provided with bioactive coatings that promote the integration of the implant into the bone and accelerate healing.

1. Comprehensive initial consultation:

At UNIQSMILE®, your path to a perfect smile begins with an initial consultation. Our highly qualified team will first carefully assess your individual needs and wishes. The consultation is a crucial stage where you have the opportunity to discuss any questions or concerns you may have.

2. Diagnosis and treatment plan:

We carry out a thorough examination to determine whether dental implants are the right solution for you. We will take into account factors such as your oral health, the condition of your jawbone and any medical history. We will also explain the various treatment options and work with you to create a customized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.

3. Anchoring the dental implant:

As soon as the individual treatment plan has been drawn up and you have decided on the dental implant treatment, the implantation phase begins. This is a surgical procedure in which the dental implant is inserted into the jawbone. This procedure is performed under local anesthesia or, if required, under sedation to ensure that you are always relaxed throughout the procedure.

UNIQSMILE® implantologists make a small incision in the gum to gain access to the jawbone. The dental implant is inserted precisely into the bone, where it will bond firmly with the bone over time. The implantation is carried out under strict observance of the highest hygiene standards and using the latest technologies to ensure the best results.

4. Healing:

During this time, the jawbone will gradually surround the implant and anchor it firmly. This process can take several weeks to months and varies from patient to patient.

During the healing phase, you should follow certain rules of conduct to promote the healing process. Your doctor will give you precise instructions on oral hygiene and diet to ensure that the implant can heal optimally and that as few bacteria as possible penetrate.

5. Fitting and fixing the dentures:

As soon as the dental implant has successfully healed, the final step of the treatment follows: fitting and fixing the prosthesis. For this, a titanium or ceramic connecting piece is first inserted. The custom-made dental prosthesis is then precisely matched to the implant and connecting piece and securely attached. This prosthesis can be a crown, a dental bridge or a denture, depending on your individual needs.

Our experienced team of dentists will adjust and attach the dentures to ensure that your new tooth fits your teeth perfectly, both aesthetically and functionally. Once the dentures are attached, you will be able to enjoy the benefits of a natural appearance, optimal function and enhanced quality of life.
