Prostheses placed on dental implants allow you to recover the health and aesthetics of the mouth when one or more teeth have been lost. The experts in dental implants in Madrid from the Corbella clinic respond to some false beliefs about dental implants.

They are exclusively replacements for false teeth for older people.

Absolutely. They can be implanted in anyone over 18 years of age, which is the estimated age for the conclusion of bone development. From this age onwards, there is no limit. In fact, the improvement of oral aesthetics through dental implants is often caused by a broken tooth.

You need to have a wide jaw bone

The surgeons of Dental Corbella We are specialists in cases with little bone. There are advanced dental implantology techniques that allow implants and fixed teeth to be placed with a very high success rate. The teeth can be implanted in anyone even if they do not have a sufficiently large jaw bone.

The body can reject it, leading to diseases

Titanium, the material with which these pieces are made, is biocompatible, so the possibility of allergies or rejection by the patient is ruled out.

Dental implants can fall out at any time

Dental implants are screwed in, so there is no risk of them coming loose from your mouth. Well-cared for dental implants can last a lifetime: having correct oral hygiene, avoiding risk factors such as tobacco and periodically attending check-ups at your dental clinic will help increase the useful life significantly. However, like teeth, if they are not cared for correctly they can last less than expected.

Any dentist can place a dental implant

Careful! To place an implant, you must have both demonstrable surgical and prosthetic studies, in addition to having the preparation to study and evaluate the area to be implanted, since there may be risks that the implantologist should know how to solve if they appear.
