Implant success and life expectancy

Are all dental implants implanted successfully?

This is one of the questions that every patient should ask when visiting their specialist. Our many years of experience in implanting dental implants gives us great optimism that this is a safe and long-term successful treatment option for our patients. The success rate of implants placed in our practice is over 98%, which is an outstanding result for a practice. This percentage is proof of our commitment to the quality and precision of each procedure.

When the dental implant is embedded in the bone, the process of osseointegration begins. Osseointegration is a process in which the dental implant is bonded directly to the bone, creating a stable and permanent connection between the metal implant and the bone tissue. This process is critical to the success of dental implants, as it provides a solid foundation for a prosthetic restoration, such as a crown, bridge, or denture, to be placed over the implant.

The osseointegration process usually takes about three to six months. During this period, bone cells grow around the surface of the implant and accept it as part of the body. Osseointegration is critical for the long-term stability of the implant and for providing a functional and esthetic replacement of the lost tooth.

Without successful osseointegration, the implant would not be able to remain stable. This leads to its weakening or even rejection. Therefore, osseointegration is one of the most important factors contributing to the high success rate of dental implants.

To ensure the long-term success of implants, it is necessary to make correct and precise prosthetics on them, as well as regular maintenance of oral hygiene. Proper care and maintenance are key to avoiding potential complications and problems. According to world statistics, dental implants have a high survival rate of over 97% even after ten years of use.
