What is a dental implant?

A dental implant is a small medical-grade titanium post that integrates with the jawbone and works like the root of a natural tooth. We then place a custom crown on top, restoring your ability to chew, speak and smile naturally. Unlike a bridge, an implant does not require grinding down healthy neighboring teeth.

At our office in Col. Obispado we plan every case with digital X-rays and 3D scanning to place the implant in the exact position, protecting bone and gum from day one.

When do you need an implant?

Implants are indicated when you have lost one or more teeth due to decay, fracture, periodontal disease or an extraction. They are also the foundation of fixed prostheses when several teeth are missing. A clinical evaluation confirms whether you have enough bone or need a graft first.

Important: replacing a missing tooth promptly prevents neighboring teeth from tilting and the bone from shrinking. The longer you wait, the more complex treatment becomes.

The step-by-step process

1. Evaluation and planning

We review your general health, take X-rays and design a personalized plan with clear timing and pricing.

2. Implant placement

A minimally invasive procedure under local anesthesia to place the titanium post in the bone.

3. Osseointegration and crown

The implant fuses with the bone over a few weeks; once integrated, we place the final tooth-colored crown.
