1Who implants are for
Whether implants suit you, the doctor decides after an examination and a 3D scan: it shows how much bone there is and where the nerves and sinuses run.
2How treatment works
- 1Consultation and 3D scanThe doctor examines you, discusses the options and gives you a referral for a 3D scan (CBCT) at our partner center Prime Dent. You receive the scan on a disc and bring it to your appointment.
- 2Implant placementUnder local anesthesia: first a gel, then an injection with SuperPen or the VibraJect attachment, so you barely feel the injection itself. Classic anesthesia is also available.
- 3HealingThe implant fuses with the bone, usually over 3–6 months. If possible, we place a temporary crown for this period.
- 4Healing abutmentShapes a neat gum contour around the future crown.
- 5Permanent crownA crown on a titanium abutment, made of E-max, zirconia or porcelain-fused-to-metal. We match the color and shape to the neighboring teeth.
If there is not enough bone for the implant, it is built up with a sinus lift or ridge augmentation. This is paid separately and only when necessary.

The surgery is done under local anesthesia, so there is no pain during it.

After surgery there may be swelling and a dull ache; the doctor will tell you how to relieve them.

Sometimes, yes. If the bone and gum are healthy and there is no inflammation, the implant can be placed on the day of extraction. If there is inflammation or too little bone, the socket is first allowed to heal. The doctor will decide what is best in your case after an examination and a 3D scan.
Placing one implant usually takes about an hour. The exact time depends on the number of implants and whether bone grafting is needed at the same time; the doctor will tell you at the consultation.
Yes. Treatment usually fits into two trips. On the first: a consultation, a 3D scan and implant placement; plan a few days for this. Then the implant heals, usually for 3–6 months, and you can be at home all this time. On the second trip we place the healing abutment and the permanent crown.
