What is a dental implant?

A natural tooth consists of a dental root, which is firmly anchored in the jaw, and a dental crown, which is the visible upper part of the tooth.

A dental implant replaces a natural tooth root. It is a small but strong post made of biocompatible metals or ceramics that is inserted into the jaw in place of a tooth root. The implant serves as a base to attach individual crowns, multi-tooth bridges, or can be used as an anchor for full dental prostheses.

Why choose a dental implant solution?

Our natural teeth help keep the bones strong and healthy. The forces generated when we chew are transmitted through the tooth roots to the bone, which stimulates the maintenance of bone density. If a tooth is missing, the surrounding bone does not receive this stimulation and may begin to slowly recede over time. As the bone shrinks, the shape of the face may also change over time.

Contributes to your smile and self-confidence

A dental implant solution looks and feels like natural teeth; there is simply no visible difference. You can feel more comfortable when speaking, smiling, eating, and even kissing.

Contributes to Function

Dental implants are anchored in the bone with the same stability as a natural tooth. Together with the prosthetic component, you can bite and chew naturally again and eat whatever you like.

Dental implants are one of the most long-lasting options for replacing teeth. They are mainly made of titanium (zirconia implants also exist, although they are less commonly used) and are placed in the bone, where they integrate and support the crown, which replaces the lost tooth. Several factors affect the durability of implants, such as bone quality and patient hygiene, but there are also other factors that can directly influence their longevity, including the quality of the implants placed and the components on which the dental crown is attached.

Premium-Quality Materials

Since dental implantology began to spread in the 1980s, various brands have emerged on the market. Some have disappeared, while others have remained stable with excellent long-term results. One of the most recognized brands among the more than 100 worldwide is Straumann implants… and this is thanks to their effectiveness and long-term durability. Each Straumann implant is designed to offer alternatives that can give the patient what they are looking for: restoring their smile.

Dr. Claudia Elizalde Molina uses the highest quality materials for her implantology procedures, such as Straumann implants.
