Dental Implants
What are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are used to replace a few or all missing teeth. An implant is an artificial tooth that consists of a small titanium screw that is fixed into the jaw and an artificial tooth that is fitted on top of that. In time, the implant becomes fused with the bone of the jaw termed as osseo-integration.

What are the advantages of dental implants?
  • Enhanced aesthetics since they resemble natural teeth.
  • Stimulate & maintain jaw bone and thus prevent bone loss.
  • Highly durable and can last a lifetime with proper care.
  • Improved speech and clarity.
  • Increased comfort when compared to removable dentures.
  • Convenient since they are a fixed option for replacing teeth.
  • Improved eating and no chance of denture slipping out of the mouth.
  • Enhanced self-esteem and confidence.
  • Improved oral health.
What is the success of dental implants?
Dental implants in India have a high success rate of 90-95%. Long term success depends on multiple factors. Firstly, it depends on the quality and quantity of bone available. Secondly, the quality of the final restoration that is placed on top of the implant plays an important role. If the biting forces are not balanced, even the best placed dental implant will have a compromised survival rate.

What is the cost of dental implants?
The cost of dental implants in India tends to vary considerably and depends on several factors: the type of implant used, extent of dental work required, number of implants and the experience of the dentist. Good quality but low cost dental implants in India could be 1/4th the price when compared to other western countries.

Our best implantologists in New Delhi will discuss the cost at length with you on your dental consultation. Although dental implants may sometimes have a higher initial cost, when all the ongoing expenses of other treatment options are added up, most people would agree that implants are more than worth it!

When you contrast the time investment that dental implant therapy requires versus the repeated office visits required for adjustments, special cleanings and replacements for partial dentures and bridge; it is easy to imagine how much better life can be with dental implants.
Am I a suitable candidate for dental implants?
Dental implants can be placed in adults with fully developed jaw bones, provided that they have a sufficient quantity and quality of bone tissue available.

CBCT reports and a full mouth x-rays (OPG) are essential for diagnosis and treatment planning. A medical screening is equally important for selection. Most healthy individuals that maintain a good oral hygiene program are suitable candidates.
What if I don't have enough bone for dental implants?
Our dental implantologist in India will discuss possible options with you on your consultation visit. The alternatives for replacing missing teeth include dentures and bridges. However, there are various bone grafting and tissue regeneration procedures that can be carried out to enable dental implant treatment in New Delhi.
Is dental implant surgery painful?
NO. An effective local anesthetic is used during the surgery so that you do not have any discomfort during the placement of implants. You may experience mild discomfort after the surgery which can be controlled with medication.
