A Natural Looking Dental Implant Solution
If you have lost one or more teeth, getting dental implants will enable you to smile with more confidence. Dental implants are a dental prosthesis that replicate the form and function of natural teeth. Dental implants permanently fill up dental gaps and at the same time protect your other teeth. They are the closest we can get to putting a tooth back into the space.
A Painless Dental Implant Process
Dental implants come in many shapes and sizes but they can typically be broken down into 3 main parts; the crown, titanium abutment and the implant fixture. When these 3 parts are combined, they form the basic structure of a dental implant. During implant surgery, the fixture of the dental implant will be inserted into the upper and/or lower jaw of the patient, this fixture will effectively act as a replacement of a tooth root, bonding with surrounding bone over the course of a few months after the initial surgery. We call this osseointegration.

DENTAL IMPLANTS FAQS
Often, missing teeth can cause people to be too self-conscious to live confidently. There are a lot of reasons why people might lose their natural teeth, but there are two main types of dental implants:
Subperiosteal Dental Implant
The subperiosteal dental implant is generally used in patients with insufficient bone height, with the implant placed on the jawbone but set into the gum tissue, metal pins are exposed which dentures are attached to.
Endosteal Dental Implant
The more common dental implant of the two types, the endosteal dental implant, popular because they are tried and tested. The implants are either bladed, smooth or threaded screw and the process begins by inserging a screw that is usually made of titanium into your jawbone, this acts as an artifical root for the dental implant to sit on, leaving a highly stable and natural looking and natural feeling result.
Having dental implants in Dubai is a big decision. Many patients are motivated by the damaging effects on self-esteem that missing teeth can have, especially as we grow older. One of the factors often considered by our patients in the planning stage is the amount pain the dental implant procedure might cause.
Dental Implants Research & Missing Teeth
Research has shown that anxiety about the implant surgery can actually influence a patient's perception of the pain experienced.
Since the dental implant procedure is usually conducted under general or local anesthetic, patients are numb to the experience, however mild pain may be noticeable after the anesthetic wears off.
Pain after Dental Implants
Any pain experienced after recovery from the implant surgery should be reported to your dental clinic in Dubai as soon as possible.

Implants in Dubai & How Long they Last?
How well dental implants are looked after can influence how long they last for, with proper maintenance they might last a lifetime.
The crucial factors to figure into your expectations about life after a dental implant treatment:
- Flossing more thoroughly particularly below the gum line.
- Brushing more thoroughly below the gum line and around adjacent teeth to the tooth implant.
- Avoiding lifestyle factors that can damage dental implants.
Speak To Your Dentist Before & After the Implant is Placed
As always you should always speak to your dentist about any health condition or lifestyle factors that may influence your oral health. Bear in mind, unlike natural teeth, dental implants will require some additional effort in terms of maintenance over the long term, and with the right care they can last for many years!
Given the high success rate we have had with surgically placed dental implants, we are confident in recommending dental implants as a more long term solution that can give you new teeth and a full mouth.
Missing Teeth
Missing teeth are often the motivation for having a dental implant treatment, and while dental implants require some more effort in the oral hygiene department, this minimises the need to replace them in the future. Proper oral care is crucial for the success rate of the treatment plan.
The process of having dentures fitted is generally much faster than the dental implant procedure. As dentures are a less complicated procedure, it sometimes requires the removal of natural teeth, particularly if the dentures will be a full set.
Dentures vs Dental Implants
In terms of the long term care of dentures vs dental implants, they both require proper maintenance. Dentures may cause some initial irritation, the best source of advice for how to minimise this discomfort is your dentist.
