Improve your quality of life and self-esteem with dental implants
Dental implants must be planned by a specialist in order to achieve the desired success. Initially, when studying dental implants, examinations are carried out in order to:
Intraoral examinations to determine current dental conditions. The examinations mainly involve casts to analyze the arch, X-rays and CT scans.
Digital panoramic radiography and computed tomography make it possible to observe general oral conditions and a detailed analysis of the bone and adjacent structures such as nerves, maxillary sinuses and teeth. These examinations can be carried out at ImplArt Odontologia (at a separate cost).
What resources can dentists use to plan implants?
It is important to explain that the dentist uses photos, examinations and clinical assessment in an integrated manner for precise dental implant planning.
Radiographic examinations: Panoramic radiographs and CT scans also offer a three-dimensional view, allowing bone quality to be assessed, anatomical structures to be identified and pathologies to be detected.
Clinical Evaluation: Detailed intraoral examinations reveal more in-depth periodontal conditions, the presence of infections and specific characteristics of the oral tissue, providing crucial information for implant success.
Precise measurements: Using specific measurement software, the professional assesses the thickness and height of the available bone, thus ensuring the proper selection of the implant.
Virtual Planning: Specialized software allows for virtual simulations, making it easier to choose the ideal position for the implants, considering aesthetics and function.
The combination of these elements also allows the dentist to carry out personalized planning, increasing the predictability and success of the dental implant procedure.
Planning is important for successful dental implant treatment
Dental implants are performed in the dentist’s office under local anesthesia, with care and attention from the implant dentist. Even those who are afraid of the dentist can have bone implants without any problem.Titanium implants are placed inside the bone and you have to wait three to six months for osseointeraction (calcification of the implant in the bone).
Once healing has taken place, the patient can wear a temporary prosthesis which allows them to better maintain their daily activities and also prevents the process of bone resorption (when the area is left without teeth for a long time, it can lose bone volume). Also during this period, the dentist makes the molds for the fixed dental prosthesis that will be placed after the implants have osseointegrated.
Temporary prosthesis for dental implants – planning
Despite the initial discomfort due to the implants and also the temporary prosthesis, the patient should wear it most of the time to facilitate adaptation. At first, the patient may feel nauseous, produce more saliva than usual and their pronunciation may also be strange. Of course, any discomfort in the meantime is temporary and must be overcome in order to achieve the best possible result.
However, in some cases, the dentist may opt to carry out the immediate loading procedure, in which the temporary prosthesis is fixed immediately after the implants are placed. This takes a maximum of 72 hours and, like all treatments, must be planned in advance to avoid problems in the future.

Permanent fixed prosthesis for implants
Finally, a permanent prosthesis will be fixed a few months after the implants have healed and the person will experience a significant improvement in chewing, quality of life and the aesthetics of their smile. The materials for the permanent prosthesis can also be chosen by the patient together with the dentist.
There are several options for implant materials, especially in the case of full arches, the so-called protocol prosthesis. Contact our clinic or make an appointment if you have any questions about the treatment, average price or techniques. We’ll be happy to help you!

Dental implants – Quality of life and self-esteem back
What are dental implants and dental implant clinics?
This is a titanium or all-ceramic post (Straumann or Neodentceramic implant ), which is surgically placed in the jawbone and has the function of replacing the root of a lost tooth.Tooth loss can occur as a result of trauma, tooth decay, gum infection or periodontal disease.
In these cases, after the dental implant has been installed, a dental prosthesis is attached which has the function and appearance of a tooth.
Treatment at the ImplArt Dental Clinic, which specializes in dental implants, aims to restore masticatory function, oral health and the aesthetics of the smile, giving people back their quality of life and self-esteem.
Treatment with dental implant pins is more efficient than treatment with conventional removable prostheses, known as dentures, and provides much more comfort for the patient, both when smiling and chewing.
Currently, for those looking for a metal-free treatment, either due to metal allergies or preference, the combination of ceramic implant and porcelain crown, or computerized Pure Zirconia, are ideal.
As we are a clinic specializing in dental implants, we have all the support we can offer patients, and a wide range of implant types.
As we are a clinic specializing in implants, we have the knowledge and know-how to identify the most diverse types of implants in patients who may have already had their surgery elsewhere and don’t know which implant was used.
The osseointegration of the dental implant takes place through the formation of calcium on the surface of the implant, which occurs through delicate and complex biological and molecular phenomena. The healing time of the dental implant will depend on the type chosen, and will be confirmed by the implant specialist, implant dentist. Here you will have all the information you need for your implant, because we are a specialist implant clinic, with knowledge and vast experience in implant dentistry.
However, the time until the implant is sufficiently integrated can vary depending on a number of factors:
Healthy osseointegration is therefore responsible for the stability of dental implants and fixed dental prostheses, offering patients the security and comfort to chew, speak and smile. External factors such as smoking and poor oral health can hinderimplantosseointegration.
It is certainly expected that the dental implant will last forever, i.e. once osseointegration has taken place, in healthy patients, it should remain integrated into the bone.

In the case of total implants, the brushing technique should be improved according to the instructions given by the dentist specializing in dental implants.Dental implants can be recommended for almost anyone who suffers from missing teeth, whether a few teeth or all the teeth in an arch.
However, each implant case needs to be assessed individually in order to plan the most appropriate treatment. However, the good news is that ImplArt is a specialist dental implant clinic that has the expertise and knowledge of the most modern techniques to solve missing teeth.
We have the experience to solve the most difficult cases of oral rehabilitation, using surgical or prosthetic techniques. See examples of before and after with osseointegrated implants at ImplArt, a clinic specializing in implants.

The installation of the implant prevents or stops bone resorption.
Partial dental implant – several teeth
Losing multiple teeth can affect your ability to chew, as well as the beauty of your smile. Certainly the best option for replacing several teeth is the placement of dental implants and the fixing of a dental prosthesis.
Partial dental implants are recommended for people who have lost some teeth in between or in the same area of the mouth. A partial implant treatment is a much more efficient alternative to a conventional bridge.
Fixed prostheses on dental implants offer better aesthetic results compared to removable prostheses, dentures, and are important for preventing bone resorption and preserving oral health.

Dental implants for all teeth – total or complete
Total dental implants are recommended for people who have lost all their teeth. The loss of all teeth usually occurs due to periodontal disease or a combination of caries and inadequate oral hygiene.
There are strategies for replacing the teeth of an entire arch with a fixed prosthesis (also known as a protocol prosthesis) or a removable prosthesis (overdenture), but fixed prostheses are the most commonly used.
In an all-tooth dental implant treatment, the pins are strategically distributed through the bone of the dental arch in order to provide sufficient support for the planned dental prosthesis.
Due to scientific advances, it is now possible, in selected cases, to go into the office without teeth and leave at the end of the day with all your teeth fixed on dental implants (temporary prosthesis).
The dental implant technique with immediate loading can be performed when bone quantity and quality are normal and also when occlusal habits are favorable for the procedure so that there is no chewing overload on the site.
Therefore, the immediate loading technique depends on certain conditions in the patient’s dental arch and general oral health. These conditions are assessed individually during your consultation with the implant dentist.
Different implant pin models can advance or delay healing and therefore the delivery of the definitive prosthesis. Discover the fastest implants currently available from the Swiss brand Straumann.
Total fixed zirconia and porcelain prosthesis
Fixed dental prosthesis on implants – types of materials
Implant treatment is the main form of aesthetic and functional rehabilitation for patients who have lost their teeth.
The absence of one or more teeth compromises chewing, speech and the aesthetics of the smile, so a fixed prosthesis on implants is capable of restoring the edentulous person’s security and self-esteem.In summary, rehabilitation basically goes through 3 relevant phases:
Pure porcelain fixed prosthesis for dental implants – Translucent zirconia (metal free)
It is a white ceramic structure called zirconia, covered with an aesthetic porcelain sculpted to the shape of the teeth.
It is therefore a new and technologically innovative material, as the prosthesis is completely designed on a computer and made with the help of electronic scanners and 3D printers. The zirconia fixed prosthesis is the material that offers the best aesthetic result because it does not contain metals in its composition.
Zirconia is a porcelain that has characteristics that are equally comparable to natural teeth, including shade, translucency and resistance.
Photo with example of oral rehabilitation of all teeth in metal-porcelain (metalloceramics), carried out at Implart, a specialist in dental implants
Metal-ceramic prosthesis on dental implants (porcelain + metal)
This is a prosthesis with an internal metal structure (titanium, Ni-Cr or Cr-Co) and an aesthetic porcelain finish that is hand-sculpted in the shape of the teeth. The result is the strength and aesthetics of porcelain, which leaves the prosthesis with aesthetics and beauty similar to natural teeth.
Although it has a small disadvantage compared to pure porcelain prostheses (which is the possibility of a grayish line appearing at the level of the gums, if the patient suffers some gum recession over time, which can lead to an aesthetic compromise in the smile).
The porcelain prosthesis (ceramic protocol) has advantages over the resin prosthesis, such as better durability and resistance to wear, as well as no color changes over time.
Protocol dentures for all upper and lower teeth – Resin dentures
Also known as the Bränemark protocol prosthesis, this model has an internal metal structure and an aesthetic resin finish. The teeth are made of resin and you can choose the color, shape and size of the teeth.
However, this material has a disadvantage compared to previous ones, which is the possibility of color change (yellowing) over time. The choice of prosthesis material should be made jointly by the dentist and patient.
During the surgery, the patient feels no pain because it is performed under local anesthesia. In addition, ImplArt uses techniques that reduce discomfort during surgery and make the recovery period more peaceful.
ImplArt also uses Piezosurgery surgical ultrasound, which cuts through hard tissues such as bone and preserves soft tissues such as gums, nerves, membranes and blood vessels.
In this way, the system allows the surgeon greater surgical precision and better visibility during surgery, as well as avoiding risks in the dental implant. See more photos of work carried out at ImplArt by clicking here.
The best brands and types of dental implants
There are several brands and models of dental implants available in Brazil, and for each application there is an ideal model. At ImplArt we use certified materials.
Dentistry has come a long way with the use of less invasive techniques to offer patient comfort and, above all, ImplArt has incorporated today’s most effective techniques into its practice to minimize any discomfort.
ImplArt is always in line with the latest developments in the world of dentistry. It uses advanced techniques to ensure that its patients have a quiet, minimally invasive, comfortable and painless surgery.
Get to know our resources and see that it’s worth doing your aesthetic and functional oral rehabilitation with dental implants, without fear.
Humanized treatment with a dental implant specialist and care for those who need teeth implanted
Fears and phobias of dentists usually stem from previous bad experiences. Examples include previous treatments that were poorly carried out, without respect for the patient’s needs or painful treatments.
ImplArt has a great deal of experience in dental implants, as well as dealing with people’s expectations and fears in this regard. Over the years, we have received many people who were terrified of undergoing dental implant surgery, as well as the aftermath.
We are ready to listen to your needs in implant dentistry and oral rehabilitation
At the end of the treatment, benefiting from modern techniques and humanization, it is common to see a reduction in the patient’s phobias and even a cure for the fear ofdentists(odontophobia). We affirm that the advantages of good oral health and an aesthetic smile are well worth it.
ImplArt’s team of dental implant specialists iscommitted to welcoming and understanding all the needs, fears and traumas that people bring with them. Don’t let fear stop you from enjoying the benefits of a fixed prosthesis on implants.
We are ready to help you with your case and restore masticatory function and the aesthetics of your smile!
Computer-guided implants are available at our clinic
Guided dental implant surgery – less invasive and faster
In order to plan the case, the patient undergoes a CT scan. The 3D images from the CT scan, combined with a digital mold of your mouth using an intraoral scanner, are used to make a plastic guide.
This implant with surgical guide acts as a template with the exact indications where the implants should be positioned according to the bone volume.
In this way, unnecessary cuts in the gums are avoided in most cases. This certainly means a lot of comfort for the patient in the post-operative recovery, as well as faster surgery.
Deep sedation for implant surgery
Sedation is a technique indicated for those who are very afraid of the dentist, afraid of feeling pain, as well as the noise of the motor, the needle, blood, etc. It allows the patient’s level of consciousness to decrease during the surgical procedure.
But sedation does not affect the ability to breathe and respond to physical stimulation and verbal commands. An anesthesiologist applies a sedative drug intravenously before the procedure.
The patient then falls asleep, but is continuously accompanied by the doctor and monitoring devices as the surgery takes place. In practice, it’s like a deep, relaxing sleep for the patient.
Most of the time, there are no memories of the procedures. The patient only wakes up when the procedures are finished, and the doctor continues to monitor their recovery until they can walk out of the room.
The sedation procedure with a dental implant specialist becomes simple, as well as comfortable for the patient, because when they wake up all the work has already been done. Read more about sedation.
There is another form of gas sedation (nitrous oxide), which we do not use at ImplArt. In our experience, gas sedation is very superficial and is not effective for patients who are truly “afraid”.
Dental Day Clinic with dental implant specialist – Faster treatments
The Day Clinic or Dental Spa is a type of intensive treatment offered at Implart, a specialist in dental implants. Among other advantages, it is suitable for those who are afraid of dental implants and want a quick dental implant treatment. In a Day Clinic, the patient can arrive at the office without teeth and leave with a dental implant and temporary prosthesis on the same day (in selected and favorable cases).
ImplArt is a modern specialist clinic with a complete structure for this purpose. Digital dentistry techniques, computerized molds and fabrication of teeth, our own laboratory and trained staff speed up treatment.

Price and value of dental implant treatments and dental aesthetics │ Dental implant value and average price with dental implant specialist
We often receive calls, emails and messages from people asking about the prices or values of dental treatments, especially dental implants and prosthetic protocols.
However, we always try to explain that the value and price can only be answered through a dental consultation with a specialist in dental implants, an implant dentist. The ImplArt Dental Clinic specializes in dental implants and takes this matter very seriously.
How much is a dental implant? Do I find out the cost at the appointment?
There are two main reasons why values are explained live:
The first is that the Code of Ethics of the Federal Council of Dentistry prohibits dentists from providing consultations online – not in person. Nor can dentists advertise the price of dental treatment online, let alone the cost of dental implants. The practice of posting average prices on websites constitutes serious misconduct before the Dental Council.
Secondly, complex dental treatments such as implant dentistry can only be indicated after a careful assessment of the patient. It often happens that patients think they need teeth implanted, but in reality they first need braces, bone grafts or different types of dentures. Of course, different plans will lead to different values and prices.
What can influence treatment with a dental implant specialist?
There are numerous factors that influence the planning of a treatment. There are also various options for materials and techniques that influence the composition of a budget. In addition, a treatment that may be suitable for one person may not be the most appropriate for another.
An implant dentist is a professionalwho specializes in dental implantsand is qualified to plan and carry out dental implants, as well as giving the necessary recommendations to keep teeth beautiful and healthy throughout life.
There are important factors that influence the perception of value or cost-benefit, such as the health and well-being that healthy teeth provide, improved self-esteem and patient comfort during procedures.
In addition to the price, the relationship of trust between patient and dentist and our empathy for the patient are important, as they often bring with them anxieties, expectations, fear of implants, as well as trauma from previous experiences. How much does your smile cost you?
What is the first consultation with adental implant specialistlike? Is there a charge?
Yes, we charge for the first consultation. The patient will be assessed by the clinic’s director, Dr. Roberto Markarian, a specialist in dental implants, who has extensive experience in treatments for functional and aesthetic oral rehabilitation, with dental implants as well as dental prostheses.
If necessary, the patient may be asked to undergo some radiological examinations in order to help with diagnosis and treatment planning. For your convenience, some of the main dental tests can be carried out within the specialist clinic (at a separate cost).
If you already have previous exams, bring all the recent ones (up to 1 year old) to your appointment, as they will be of great help.
My dentist doesn’t charge for implants, why do you?
We follow the rules of the CRO, the Regional Council of Dentistry, which specifies that dental services cannot be free, in the same way as medical consultations. Certainly, the culture in dentistry is changing and the number of dentists who charge for consultations is growing.
The dentist specializing in dental implants, implantodontist, who will be treating you has completed university studies and takes frequent postgraduate courses. Their time is valuable, as it is in other health professions. We also need to clarify that there is no such thing as a free dental implant.
Even in places where tooth implants are done at low cost, such as courses for dentists, the patient pays less, but there is always a price to pay.
Do you accept any dental plans that cover dental implants at ImplArt, a specialist in dental implants?
We are a clinic specializing in dental implants, used to receiving the most complex cases in dentistry.
However, we do accept plans for the reimbursement or free choice system. There are companies that offer their employees this system, in which they will later receive the amounts paid. In this way, we offer all the support that patients with dental plans may need to request reimbursement.
Most dental plans don’t offer cover for dental prosthesis, implants or aesthetic procedures, which are precisely the focus of our specialist clinic. However, we are able to offer the support that patients may need to request reimbursement for their dental treatment.

The topic of implantswith immediate loading has always been very present when it comes to dental implants. The term is related to pressure, i.e. loading on the newly installed implant, therefore immediately after surgery. It is important to note that the decision on whether or not to perform immediate loading on the implant should be made by the implant dentist. Assuming that this is the main desire of all patients, it is the implant dentist who must certainly assess the conditions conducive to the use of this technique.
Currently, implant surgery is studied beforehand by the implant dentist (dental implant specialist) through the patient’s panoramic X-ray and CT scan. It is therefore possible to assess whether the patient has favorable bone conditions for the use of this technique. However, it is at the time of implant surgery, by locking the implant, that it is possible to guarantee that the immediate loading technique can be carried out. In this way, the professional can also change the technique used to make the prosthesis if the necessary implants are not locked during surgery. Although the bone structure is studied beforehand through examinations, it is only during surgery that the real bone situation can be gauged.
How is immediate loading surgery with dental implants performed?
Surgery is performed to install dental implants in the jawbone. The surgery should take place like a conventional dental implant surgery. Prior to the surgery, plans are made for an immediate temporary prosthesis, so that the patient will never be without teeth. There are prerequisites for using the installed implant:
Immediate loading means that the implant will be loaded with the crown as soon as it is inserted. In practice, loading occurs with the placement of the tooth, which will transmit the force of chewing through the implant to the bone.
This means that not all cases are good for immediate loading. Sometimes, only during implant installation will we be able to tell if the implant has met the requirements for immediate loading. Therefore, in some cases immediate loading can be aborted to allow the implant to heal in a conventional way (between 3 and 6 months).
If the surgery goes well, you can then start on the provisional or even definitive prosthesis, which requires molds and measurements of the arch. Immediate loading is usually carried out with a temporary prosthesis and, after the implants and gums have healed (between 3 and 6 months), the definitive prosthesis is made. Watch the video below where we show the total implant surgery and the installation of the protocol prosthesis.
Although it is possible to carry out the treatment with the definitive material initially, we consider it better to make a temporary prosthesis, as the gums must swell and the bone changes shape during the initial three months of healing after surgery.
Best material for fixed prostheses
Currently, the most modern material for fixed prostheses is zirconia. Zirconia is a biocompatible material in line with the biological dentistry trend, which seeks to avoid the use of metals in dental treatments. It is also highly resistant and can be designed using computer graphics, which gives a much more natural aesthetic result compared to other types of dental prosthesis materials.

Rapid (immediate) loading is possible thanks to scientific advances. Today it is possible, in selected cases, to enter the office without teeth and leave at the end of the day with all the teeth fixed on dental implants with immediate loading. This technology gives patients great satisfaction due to the rapid results.
The rapid loading technique can be indicated for a single tooth or for all teeth.
Indications for immediate rapid loading dental implants
The dental implanttechnique with immediate loading can be carried out when bone quantity and quality are normal and also when occlusal habits are favorable for the procedure to be carried out so as not to overload the site with chewing.
Therefore, the immediate loading technique depends on certain conditions of the patient’s dental arch and general oral health. The conditions, planning requirements and feasibility of the implant with immediate loading are assessed individually in consultation. Not all cases can be immediately loaded.
Therefore, the dental implant technique with immediate loading can be indicated for the following cases: people with a completely toothless lower arch, a full arch with a few teeth, single or individual teeth in the anterior region of the mouth, and in some cases fixed prostheses on a few teeth, depending on the region. In all cases and situations, the main course of action is to consult your dentist and carry out a full assessment to determine what and how will be done.
Only this assessment can determine whether an immediately loaded dental implant is indicated or whether another rehabilitation procedure would provide a better result. The technique is not always used in all cases, as it depends on the patient having some specific and favorable conditions that are assessed in consultation.
We must therefore plan your case carefully in order to achieve the expected success. The procedure aims to install a temporary prosthesis immediately after the implants have been placed. The time it takes to make the final prosthesis will be discussed with the dentist and varies from case to case.
If your concern is to complete your dental implant treatment as soon as possible, you can use fast-healing implants. The Swiss company Straumann is responsible for producing the most modern dental implants that allow rapid healing. Under ideal conditions, without bone grafting and good locking, these implants normally heal in between 1 and 2 months. So if your concern is time, opt for Straumann implants. These implants can be used for single implants or total implants.
The type of dental crown or type of prosthesis to be used in your treatment should certainly also be evaluated, in order to shorten its execution time. If possible, opt for computerized crowns or prostheses. These modern prosthesis models use 3D tools that speed up the execution time and offer greater quality and naturalness. This includes the Translucent Zirconia Prosthesis, the single zirconia crown or the fixed zirconia prosthesis. As well as the Cerec porcelain crown.
At the ImplArt dental clinic, we have all the structure to carry out your procedure with peace of mind, so come in for an assessment and we’ll analyze whether your case can be solved with this technique. Contact us by WhatsApp (11) 3262-4750, we’ll be happy to talk to you and answer any questions you may have.
There’s a lot of talk about zirconia dental crowns these days, but did you know that there’s more than one type of pure zirconia crown ? There are actually two types, which are not the same! Let’s follow the differences between Pure Zirconia Crowns and ceramic layered Crowns. In addition, we will present the benefits of the most modern crown, which uses computer graphics, the Pure Zirconia Crown, also called Translucent Zirconia.
First of all, in order to differentiate between the two types, let’s highlight the method used to make each one. While one relies on a super-modern method with computer graphics for its preparation, the other still has an artisanal stage with manual application of porcelain by a prosthodontist. They can be used for single crowns, crowns on individual dental implants, fixed prostheses and even total implants, with the modern zirconia protocol prosthesis.
This way, by the end of the text it will be clear that even though both options have zirconia, not all zirconia crowns are the same! Let’s get to know the important differences below:
Zirconia crowns combine strength and superior aesthetics for more natural results
Therefore, in order to restore the aesthetics and function of the smile, it is natural to look for options that restore or make up for a missing tooth in a way that achieves the most natural and harmonious result possible. Whether for a crown on a tooth root or on a dental implant, zirconia is the material that offers this excellence. We can highlight the main advantages of zirconia:
Range of shades very similar to human tooth enamel.
Unlike metal-ceramic crowns, zirconia crowns have no metal parts in their construction. Therefore, there are no dark shadows when subjected to a beam of light, and there is no risk of a metal line appearing if the gums recede.
Fracture and stain resistant material
A fully or partially computerized manufacturing method, which makes treatment faster and more precise. The speed of digital zirconia crown production
CAD/CAM zirconia dental crowns
Zirconia oxide dental crowns are considered the most modern crowns thanks to their advanced technical and aesthetic properties. The shade and translucency of this high-performance ceramic are very similar to natural teeth.
The construction of dental crowns made from pure zirconia is totally unique and innovative, as these crowns are digitally designed using computer graphics and the CAD/CAM system, resulting in more precise pieces and much faster. The equipment has robotic arms that mill a block of zirconia until it reaches the designed shape. This type of crown has the highest resistance of all the dental crown options available. In addition, it allows for greater patient comfort throughout the treatment because it only uses digital readings, with a 3D scanner, without the need for the old mass moldings.
The CAD/CAM pure zirconia crown manufacturing method is 100% digital, while the ceramic layered zirconia crown, which we’ll see below, has a handmade interface, with mass molding and manual application of porcelain on the outside.
Zirconia crown with porcelain ceramic layered (zirconia + porcelain)
It is a crown in which the inner part is made of zirconia and the outer layer is made of ceramic layered material. Only the inner part of the tooth structure is made of zirconia, while the outer part is made of porcelain. The layered zirconia crown is more artisanal, as it requires a prosthetist to manually apply the outer porcelain layer.
What are the differences between pure zirconia and ceramic layered crowns?
After the ceramic is applied to the zirconia structure, the crown undergoes a sintering phase in a kiln. In this way, each layer of ceramic applied takes on a spectrum of color, translucency and opacity in the crown, seeking to reproduce the color variation of natural teeth.

Zirconia full denture with ceramic applied. Note that in addition to characterizing the teeth, the ceramic gingiva has also been characterized. Both the crown and the applied zirconia prosthesis have no shadows or dark spots, even in very bright environments. The zirconia of the internal structure has a shade very similar to that of human dentin, which is the inner part of natural teeth. The ceramic, on the other hand, has resistance, color, translucency and texture very similar to tooth enamel. This type of crown or total prosthesis already has huge gains compared to metal-ceramic, which has a metal structure and a porcelain exterior.
Pure milled zirconia crown
The pure zirconia crown is milled from a multilayer zirconia block, meaning that the block is already produced with the different layers of color and translucency just like the teeth. In other words, the pure zirconia crown model does not need a layer of ceramic to reproduce the shades and translucency of the teeth. After milling, it goes straight into the kiln. It represents the most resistant material available in dentistry today, in addition to the natural aesthetic result, similar to natural teeth.

Pure zirconia crowns
What is the best type of zirconia crown?
Nowadays, patients are looking for comfort when undergoing dental treatment. In addition, they want a treatment with high durability and aesthetic results. The CAD/CAM Zirconia Crown meets all these requirements precisely because of the characteristics of the material and the method of execution using digital design and a 3D scanner. Without the need for the uncomfortable mass moldings of old.
The production of CAD/CAM pure zirconia crowns, due to the fact that no manual ceramic finishing work is required, allows faster work to be carried out. If the need is for faster treatment, and the patient is looking for the most modern treatment, this is undoubtedly the best option.
Totally metal-free rehabilitation: is it possible?
Yes, in the event that you need to replace a missing tooth with a dental implant and prosthetic crown, this rehabilitation can be done with a ceramic implant as well as a zirconia crown. In this way, we achieve a metal-free implant treatment. This has been a trend for followers of biological dentistry, who are looking for dental treatments without any metal.
All of ImplArt’s zirconia dental crowns and prostheses are made in the dental clinic‘s own digital laboratory. This allows for high quality control and on-time delivery.
How much does a zirconia crown cost?
In order for us to ascertain the needs of your case: single tooth crown, fixedprosthesis, prosthesis on implants, prosthesis protocol, we need to assess you carefully and thus be able to give you the price of your personalized zirconia treatment. The consultation can be in person or online, for those patients who are physically far away. Contact us at ImplArt Dental Clinic and we will be happy to answer any questions you may have.
These are examples of questions frequently asked by patients. To clear up these doubts, it’s important to bear in mind a few points that go deeper than just the dental implant price. Here at Clinica Dentaria ImplArt, patients have their initial consultation directly with our clinical director, implant dentist Dr. Roberto Markarian, who clarifies all the information about implants during the first consultation.
Let’s follow more honest information about the price and cost of dental implants and prostheses and find out what influences the cost of implant treatment:
Dental implant costs can be determined by the type of dental implant used
There are currently several types of dental implants available and different types of dental prostheses, which give patients different options. The most suitable option for your case will be made in consultation, and your opinion will be very important in the final choice process. The characteristics of each material are presented so that the patient can choose with all the information about healing times and execution methods. In this regard, we should point out that there are everything from titanium implants to the modern ceramic implant, the only metal-free option and an excellent choice for those seeking biological dentistry.
There are fast-healing dental implants, such as the Straumann Slactive implant, as well as national implants with longer healing times. Therefore, your choice cannot be based solely on the price of an implant, but rather on a number of factors.
Dental implants how much ? How much does a dental implant cost? How much is a dental implant?
Of course, many of the calls and messages we receive relate to the cost of dental implants, total implants, dental contact lenses and dental treatments in general. And these questions above are the most frequently asked. How much the patient will spend on their dental implant treatment is undeniably one of the topics that causes concern for the patient.
However, it’s important to point out that there are currently several types of implants and prostheses, and that with so many options, it will certainly be easier to choose the ideal one for each case. We always try to explain that these questions can only be answered legitimately, through a dental consultation. There are two main reasons for this:
1. The first is that the Code of Ethics of the Federal Council of Dentistry forbade dentists from carrying out consultations in person. However, with the pandemic, online consultations with dentists were allowed. In this way, after an online consultation we will be able to provide you with an estimate of Dental implants how much they will cost
2. The second is that dental treatments can only be indicated after a careful assessment of the patient. There are numerous factors that influence treatment planning, for example:
Does the case require bone grafting or not? What type of implant will be chosen? Are there other treatment options available? What about the type of prosthesis? Immediate or delayed loading? Will a less invasive implant be used? Is it guided surgery, where a prior surgical guide is made?
The good news for those who live far away, whether abroad or in other states, is the possibility of making an initial consultation remotely, the online consultation.
Types of implants and crowns influence the value of dental implants / Dental implants how much ?
What’s more, many patients are unaware of the different types of implant, which, above all, can offer different recovery times and different indications. So there is a wide range of choices, and surely one will be right for you.
In this way, these more modern dentalimplants make it possible to shorten the treatment time with the rapid healing they offer.
It is also important to note that there are several types of prosthesis to be made on these dental implants, and the choice will be made jointly by the patient and specialist, depending on the desired results. Therefore, at your initial consultation, all the characteristics of each type of implant and prosthesis will be presented for your choice.
Type of implant chosen: The brand of post has an influence on How much does a tooth implant cost? The final cost of a dental implant treatment depends on a number of factors, such as the materials used, the qualifications of the professional, the technique used, among others. Therefore, the price of the total dental treatment will vary on the market.
How do I know the price of implant treatment? How much do dental implants cost?
First of all, it’s important to bear in mind that when it comes to quality dental treatments, the price of a dental implant can’t always be the deciding factor in the choice, but rather the quality of the service being offered. It is therefore essential that patients make their choice based on the trust and credibility of the clinic or professional providing the service, as well as the technical knowledge of the professionals, their years of practice and the technique to be used.
Undeniably, not every dental implant treatment is the same, firstly because of the differences in each case, and secondly because each professional has their own practice, technique and theoretical background. That’s why it’s very difficult to choose a professional based on price alone. If it’s too cheap, be wary! High-quality materials and qualified professionals have their value. Remember that the effort the professional has put into their qualifications throughout their career makes a direct difference to the outcome of your treatment!
How to measure the value of dental implants in the total dental treatment? what is the fair value/ Dental implants how much ?
As a result, we are able to offer the most modern technologies worldwide, which makes treatments more precise, faster and more comfortable for the patient. That’s why the ImplArt Implant Clinic is so sought after by patients who come from abroad, looking for the latest technology aligned with the best practices in dentistry worldwide, to carry out their intensive Day Clinic treatment. You should know that, for those who come from far away, it is possible to make an online consultation beforehand and with our technology, planning your dental implant surgery remotely is possible.
Dental implant and prosthesis techniques affect the value of dental implants
There are certainly several options for materials and techniques that influence the composition of a budget. What’s more, a treatment that may be suitable for one person may not be the right one for another.
Therefore, it is especially important to be assessed by a talented implant dentistry professional, who will evaluate each specific case and make the most appropriate recommendation to solve each case. Just to illustrate how treatment prices can vary, and the importance of a face-to-face assessment, at Clinica Dentária ImplArt we offer various dental implant options and different types of prostheses.
Short implants? Faster healing implants? Upon receiving a treatment recommendation, the patient will choose the type of implant and dental prosthesis they prefer with the dentist, after explaining the technical characteristics of each type.
The importance of an evaluation appointment to find out the cost of a dental implant
Another aspect that needs to be addressed is that patients may think they have a dental problem and believe that a particular treatment may be the most appropriate, but in reality it may be something else.
The dental surgeon is the professional who is qualified to look at oral health in general, as well as giving the necessary recommendations to keep teeth beautiful and healthy throughout life. That’s why it’s important to know that there is a wide range of options for solving the same problem.

Treatment planning involves various strategies and options of materials and techniques with different prices: cheaper or more expensive
At ImplArt Dental Clinic, we believe that dental treatment goes far beyond a simple monetary dental implant value.
There are important factors that influence cost-effectiveness, such as the health and well-being that a healthy set of teeth provides. We can mention the confident improvement in the patient’s self-esteem and the patient’s comfort during procedures with modern techniques and methodologies aimed at the patient’s well-being.
In this sense, the relationship of trust between patient and dentist, and above all our empathy for the patient, often brings with it anxieties, expectations, fears and even trauma from previous experiences. What do you think your smile is worth?
Frequently asked questions about dental implant prices and rehabilitation treatments
Does the Dental Implant Clinic charge for the first consultation?
Yes, the first consultation, the assessment consultation, has a cost. Without a doubt, it is important to note that the CRO, the Regional Council of Dentistry, classifies it as an ethical infringement to offer free consultations and diagnoses, as well as to display the cost of dental implants in a generic manner.
At the ImplArt Dental Clinic, the patient will be assessed by the clinic’s director, Dr. Roberto Markarian, who holds important academic degrees such as Master’s, Doctorate and Specialist in Prosthodontics and Implantology.
It is also important to note that our clinical director has extensive experience in thousands of treatments for functional and aesthetic oral rehabilitation, with dental implants and prostheses. He is also considered a benchmark in digital implants and prostheses, with 3D modeling, which is why we receive patients who come from all over the world in search of our quality of care, not just for the value of dental implants.
Because of his knowledge and credibility, he is sought out by patients from all over the world and is responsible for guiding the team of highly qualified specialists who make up the Clinic’s team. Therefore, it is from his experience and solid academic background that he will propose a solution to the patient’s problem, supported by the most modern practices in world dentistry.
What can be requested at the initial consultation?
In order to allow for an in-depth analysis of the case,the patient may be asked toundergo some radiological examinations to help with the diagnosis and treatment planning.
Of course, if the patient already has previous, recent tests (up to 1 year), these can be presented at the initial consultation. Undoubtedly, the examinations are a fundamental tool for a complete analysis of the patient’s needs and for determining the cost of the dental implant.
There are dentists who don’t charge for consultations, why do you?
First and foremost, we follow the rules of the CRO, the Regional Council of Dentistry, which specifies that dental services cannot be free of charge, in the same way as medical consultations.
Certainly the culture in dentistry is improving and the number of dentists who charge for consultations is growing. It’s important to make sure that, above all, the dentist who will be seeing you has studied at university and takes frequent postgraduate courses.
Your time is valuable, just as it is in other health professions. I’m sure you also want highly qualified treatment, and we have the technical knowledge and the latest technology to offer it.
Do you accept any dental plans?
In order to offer patients the most modern treatments, our treatments are private.
In fact, most dental plans don’t offer cover for dental prostheses, implants or aestheticprocedures, which are precisely the focus of our clinic. However, plans can be used for the reimbursement system or free choice, depending on the value of the dental implant.
There are certainly companies that offer this system to their employees. In this way, the patient pays for their treatment and then, through the specific procedures of each plan, receives part or all of the amounts paid, according to the rules of each plan. In this case, we offer support so that you can apply for reimbursement.
Can I send my tests by e-mail to get a better idea of the cost of treatment before I go to the clinic?
Nowadays, for those who live abroad or in other cities and want to schedule their trip to the Day Clinic for treatment , it is possible to have an online consultation (Teleodontology). What are the cases in which we can carry out an online consultation?
Care for patients who are already undergoing treatment and are unable to return to the office.
Obtain information on the best time to resume treatment for people in the coronavirus risk group
Attending to people from other cities, states or countries.
Patient monitoring between scheduled appointments
If you are in or passing through São Paulo, we remind you that face-to-face consultations are always more productive. Therefore, the online version of the consultation is intended primarily for those who are physically far away. Due to the rules of the CFO Council of Dentistry, we cannot publish the cost of dental implants.

ImplArt Dental Clinic brings you another great novelty: the Zirconia implant, a highly biocompatible and resistant white ceramic.
The zirconia implant is a revolutionary innovation in the field of dentistry, offering an aesthetic and biocompatible alternative to traditional titanium implants. In addition to being metal-free, zirconia implants have a natural white color that resembles the root of the tooth, providing a more harmonious visual result, especially in aesthetic areas.
This advanced zirconia implant technology also offers benefits in terms of strength and durability, making it an excellent choice for patients looking for a functional and discreet solution for replacing missing teeth.
Certainly, the absence of metals in its composition, the ivory shade (similar to the color of human tooth roots) as well as the absence of sparkling reflections, characterize this implant as an aesthetic alternative in cases where the patient has very thin or atrophied gums, especially when these conditions occur in the anterior region (the most visible part of the arch).It is therefore an excellent option for those looking for a dental implant treatment with the best aesthetics available.
Pure Ceramic zirconia dental implant and other high-quality implants at ImplArt dental clinic
In addition, they have been developed with ZLA technology, similar to SLA, which favors and accelerates the osseointegration process, important for speedy treatment and the success of the implant, as well as its stabilization.
Above all, it is important to note that Straumann’s PURE Ceramic implants have undergone rigorous scientific research before being introduced to the market. Each implant is mechanically tested before being supplied to the dentist.
Pure Ceramic zirconia implant applied in the anterior region
White ceramic implants indicated for anterior areas and cases of high aesthetic demand
The Swiss company Straumann has been working in the field of implant dentistry, researching and developing dental implants, surgical instruments, prosthetic components and biomaterials for regenerating oral tissues since 1974. As a result, Straumann’s products and services are available in more than 70 countries and, of course, at the ImplArt Dentistry Clinic.
Implant dentist Dr. Roberto Markarian, director of the ImplArt dental clinic, is a member of the ITI – International Team for Implantology. This organization is linked to Straumann and brings together the world’s best specialists for the development of new products and techniques. So, if you have any questions about ceramic dental implants, please make an appointment or contact us. We’ll be happy to help you.
Today there are various types of dental implants, including the morse-fit implant connection. But what does this mean? To understand what a morse-fit dental implant is, you first need to understand what an implant connection is. That way, we’ll show you why the morse-fit implant is the most modern implant available today. Dental implants from the Swiss brand Straumann have a morse-fit platform. Neodent also offers implants of this design.
To make the union between implant and tooth, there needs to be an interface and this piece is called an abutment. The way the abutment is placed on the implant is known as the implant connection or prosthetic connection.
morse-fit Implant
Schematics of Morse-fit implants
There are different implant connection models, the main ones being external hexagon, internal hexagon and the advanced morse-fit system. Here, at the Implart dental clinic, we will present all the implant options suitable for your case during your initial assessment with our implant dentist.
Morse fit is a prosthetic connection system in which the implant has a conical central core. There is evidence that this format has several benefits over others. We’ll get to know them shortly.
Benefits of morse-fit implants over other types of connection
The morse-fit technique has a number of advantages and favors the dentist’s work for a more efficient and comfortable rehabilitation. See other advantages:
The conical shape preserves the bone crest, reducing the chances of bone loss, as this model is placed at bone level (below the bone).
Promotes bone stability which helps preserve peri-implant tissue.
The intermediaries used in morse-fit implants allow bone and gum to fill the space between the prosthesis and the implant, creating an ideal seal and preserving the bone.
The designed conical seal prevents bacteria from migrating to the implant. The design prevents bacterial colonization on the implant (peri-implantitis).
Studies have shown that the conical shape of the morse-fit implant connection is the best option for using the immediate loading technique due to the greater mechanical stability and performance of the abutment, and the favoring of osseointegration (the process of integration between implant and bone).
What’s more, these implants allow for faster healing and therefore a shorter implant treatment period
The morse-fit implant is the best option for the surgical and prosthetic phases, and performs best over time. Here are some more advantages:
Excellent frictional retention as well as reduced gaps between the abutment and the inside of the implant prevent displacement. The space reduction increases the contact area of the interface, offering greater resistance than other internal connections.
The model favors the distribution of physiological forces around the peri-implant tissues
It favors the aesthetic result of the treatment, as the dividing line between abutment and implant is easier and more discreet. In addition, the gums regenerate better with morse-fit implants.
Its angulation makes it easier to remove the implant, should this be necessary, while preserving bone and gum tissue.
The union between the morse-fit implant and the prosthetic parts is more stable and durable, preventing bacterial infiltration and infection of the gums and bone around the dental implant (peri-implantitis).
If you have any questions about morse-fit implants, crowns and dentures, it’s best to consult an implant dentist. So get in touch with us or book an appointment with the specialized team at the ImplArt Dental Clinic.
Certainly one of the great delights of our work is receiving the feeback from our patients, who are always full of joy and satisfaction.

Here are some real dental implant testimonials from our patients, so you can see our quality from those who have experienced it. We pride ourselves on meeting your needs!
“I’ve been a patient of the ImplArt clinic for a few years, when I met Dr. Roberto Markarian. At the assessment appointment, he explained the treatment very clearly. I was someone who had a lot of trauma and fear of dentists, I couldn’t smile and I was very embarrassed.
I just have to say thank you for getting to know this clinic, which took very good care of me, excellent professionals, I was always attended to promptly throughout my treatment. Today I can smile. Congratulations to Clinica ImplArt and Dr. Roberto Markarian, and I can’t forget to mention Vivian, who has always been very attentive. How good it is to be able to count on professionals like you.”
Shirlei Gonçalves
“I am a patient of the ImplArt clinic, I had a total upper and partial lower implant treatment, assisted by Dr. Roberto, a highly competent professional, as well as his clinical staff! My treatment was carried out by Dr. Adriana, who is highly professional and attentive! I’m very happy with the result, it looks great and I get nothing but compliments.”
Solange Godoy
“I was very afraid of getting implants, but Dr. Roberto gave me so much reassurance that I had no doubts. I had the implants, I didn’t feel a thing and I didn’t have any problems. I was very pleased with the results, it even changed my self-esteem with the excellent work done. Dr. Brenda was an excellent professional, always attentive and explaining all the treatment procedures. A reliable team. The service was exceptional. I highly recommend it.”
Dulceni Paglione
“ImplArt has changed my life. It changed the way I smile and interact with people. I now have much more confidence in myself, my self-esteem has grown. I thank them for all their care and I say to anyone who is going to start treatment: you can trust them, because they are serious and their work is very good.”
Eliana Fagundes
“First world dental clinic, the tooth scanner only exists at Implart, I was impressed with the perfect result. Dr. Roberto is highly competent and gives us all the security we need when deciding to have an implant or more complicated surgery on our teeth. The team is top 10. I had my treatment with Dr. Roberto and his team and I highly recommend them.”
Valerie Hair
“I recently finished my treatment. I had Swiss implants and a porcelain prosthesis. I would like to praise the work of Dr. Roberto and all the qualified professionals in his team. These people work seriously and responsibly.”
Sebastião Melo
“Now that I’ve completed the full upper arch implant procedure I started about four months ago, I’m here to give my testimony to help anyone who needs treatment and has doubts about where to get it. I went through a real via crucis to get to Dr. Roberto’s clinic, because if you don’t have a referral, searching on the internet gives the impression that all dental surgeons are good, which is a total mistake.
Mentions like “graduated from such and such university” don’t mean much. Many don’t have the qualifications or equipment for more complex surgeries. Before arriving at Dr. Roberto’s clinic, I went to several that I thought were specialists, and I was frightened by the procedures suggested for my case. But as I’m very fearful, I didn’t agree to be treated at such clinics.
I continued researching and came across Dr. Roberto, who gave me a totally different solution from those who had gone before him, and so I began treatment. It was a blessing for me because I didn’t have to undergo surgery in a hospital under full anesthesia. It was easy, painless and I recovered quickly. “
Hideki Oshiro
“I found Implart through a Google search. I was looking for a clinic in São Paulo that would serve me with quality and speed, as I live in Miami. I wanted zirconia treatment, as is done here, and I found what I wanted at Implart. A committed team, a director with credibility and knowledge. I was very happy with my choice and came back very happy.”
Rafaela Nunes
“Having completed the first stage of my treatment, I’m taking the initiative to express my satisfaction with Implart. When I read the contract, I liked it. Objective, clear and transparent. Extremely professional. The clinic is well-kept, cozy, no-frills and very well equipped. I was able to see for myself that the materials used in my treatment were top quality. Very fine needles for anesthesia.This means that we feel almost nothing from the sting (of course, in this case, the professional’s hand is fundamental).
Anesthetics that left me wondering whether I was anesthetized or not, because the effect was so subtle. Powerful, though. Just as you hardly notice when the anesthetic wears off. There are no abrupt sensations. The restoration of a tooth that came in the way was carried out perfectly. The temporary prosthesis was very good. It fitted very well and the aesthetics were excellent. Very natural and very close to my original teeth.I love it!
Then the surgery! The next day it seemed like I hadn’t even undergone it, how comfortable I was. All of the above is very important, but for me the most important thing is Implart’s team of professionals. What really struck me was that everyone I spoke to was discreet, spontaneous, affectionate and welcoming. Dr. Roberto, congratulations on your clinic.And in my humble opinion I think it’s a model clinic.
If one day a dental student is able to do an internship at Implart, it would be a privilege. Believe me, everything I’m saying is the observation of a 60-year-old who has worked with a variety of professionals, from very good to very bad (all in private practice). I love being seen in a dental clinic. It’s more complete, modern and efficient.”
Setsuko Katayama, São Paulo-SP
“I thank and congratulate Dr. Roberto Markarian and his entire team for their competence, professionalism, ethics and respect. You have given me back the will to smile.”
Eva Bastos, São Paulo-SP
“The experience I’ve had with ImplArt dentistry couldn’t have been better. High professionalism, proper treatment and accurate information provided to patients are qualities that make ImplArt stand out in the dental field. Patients with limited time, as in my case, get a full guarantee of a service provided with precision.
The MSN patient support service provided by the administrative assistant makes Implart stand out and gives us the guarantee of an infrastructure prepared to meet all our needs with comfort and credibility. No matter the distance, time or need, IMPLART has shown that it makes a difference at national and international level. Thank you to everyone who makes ImplArt a differentiated and reliable service.”
Jomo Löw – Sacramento – California
“I’m very anxious about going to the dentist and I’ve always avoided it as much as possible. Now it’s been five years without treating my teeth, so I ended up losing some dentures, had a lot of cavities and an episode of pain. Then I came across the IMPLART clinic and this sedation technique. It was very easy to have the treatment this way. The doctor who saw me was very attentive and looked after me until the end of the procedure. I also found that the dentist worked quickly and did some implants and treated the cavities while I was asleep. It was a bit magical but when I woke up everything was ready, I thought it was great.”
M.R.R., businesswoman, São Paulo-SP
“It’s very easy for me to write in the form of testimonials about the dental implants I had for two years with Dr. Roberto from the ImplArt Clinic, because what seemed impossible at first, through Dr. Roberto’s skillful hands, became concrete every day.When I arrived at the office for a consultation more than two years ago, I had periodontal disease that had already compromised most of my teeth, both upper and lower. After the consultation, Dr. Roberto informed me that it was a difficult case, but not impossible to treat, and his suggestion was to implant both upper and lower teeth.
In a very didactic way, he explained the treatment step by step, showing me that one of the main elements in the whole stage would be patience and that’s what I had during the long process of surgeries and tests, but my calm, patience was due a lot to the confidence that Dr. Roberto gave me, his security, his intelligence, his education and affection were essential for me to go through this trajectory very calmly and sure that I would ultimately achieve my KOLYNOS smile, which can be COLGATE, SMILE.”
Cida Santos, University Professor, São Paulo – SP
“I was recently in São Paulo because I travel frequently for work. Due to the sudden need for emergency treatment, I came across the ImplArt Clinic, which promptly solved my problem. My time in the city, about a week, was enough for a definitive treatment to be completed. I was very pleased with the speed of treatment and the quality. I recommend it!”
Albert Cardoso, Fortaleza – CE
“As I have known Dr. Roberto for some time, I let him know in advance that I was coming to São Paulo, as I visit my family periodically. Dr. Roberto asked me to send him some tests in advance, which I promptly did by email. I was impressed by how useful technology can be even for dental treatment. I prefer the service in Brazil, as the dentists here are very cold and the prices are much higher.”
Regina Abreu, London – England
“I remember one Friday when I was performing at the Sala São Paulo, a jacket that was right in front of me broke. I called Dr. Markarian, made an appointment, he examined me and said that if I waited for surgery to finish, he would put an implant in. The result: I had the implant, left the office, came home, got ready and went to the repair, driving normally.
I arrived after midnight enraptured by the music and without remembering that I’d had an implant. I know a lot of people who have implants, get sick, have inflammation, get down, stop exercising. Thanks to the doctor’s safety, competence and in-depth knowledge, I never had any problems and everything went smoothly. That’s why I say that I was even sad, regretting the end of the treatment. A big hug to all of you and much success to the Clinic, especially to Dr. Roberto.”
Dr. Roberto Markarian is a reference in dental implants and computerized dental prostheses in Brazil. As well as having more than 10,000 implants installed, he is a researcher and produces knowledge that is published worldwide in renowned scientific journals in the field of dentistry. He is responsible for promoting knowledge and high technology applied in all the treatments offered by the ImplArt Clinic.
Know more about the risks and dangers of dental implants
Crucial to the success of the procedure is the thorough planning of the implant surgery and the choice of specialist professionals who are qualified to carry out the dental implant surgery. This increases the chance of success of this important treatment, and therefore the chances of any complications are minimal.
So rest assured that you can enjoy all the benefits that this rehabilitative and safe treatment offers patients. The implant-supported prosthesis is made to resemble the person’s other natural teeth and also offer similar chewing strength.
Oral rehabilitation with dental implants is usually the best option for re-establishing the patient’s aesthetic and chewing functions, a treatment called total dental implantation.
Patients who grind or clench their teeth (bruxism) can exert a lot of force on the implants, with an increased chance of breakage or fracture of the implants or the parts that make up the implant prostheses.
Patients who bruxism also increase the risk of loosening the screws that fix the implant crown. When this happens, the patient reports that the implant is “soft”. However, we mustn’t confuse the prosthesis becoming loose with the implant pin coming loose from the bone (which is much more serious).
Most commonly, when the problem is just the loose implant tooth, the patient feels no pain, while when the implant is lost there is always pain. If the implant fractures or comes loose from the bone, it must be replaced, starting the dental implant process all over again.
Check complete PODCAST about 5 biggest risks for dental implants:
Is it the dentist’s fault that my implant fractured?
There are several factors to consider, some of which would be the material of the prosthesis, the number and positioning of the implants, correct surgical technique, material of the dental implant, type of prosthetic components chosen, type of prosthetic connection chosen.
Assuming that the professionals are working to do their best, it’s rare that there will be any negligence in this regard. What really counts is the willingness of the patient and the professional to start again, perhaps trying to improve or perfect one of the strategies.

2 – Inflammation in implants and risks
Inflammation can occur in a dental implant, manifesting itself as pain, swelling, pain when chewing, bleeding, and even the formation of pus in the implant. Please note that in any area of medicine where an artificial part is used inside the human body, there can be an adverse reaction of rejection.
This rejection phenomenon can occur in relation to the dental implant or an associated material such as a bone graft or a protective membrane. Bacterial infection can also occur in the implants, which can even prevent bone integration.
The implant on the left in the image has inflammatory bone loss, while the implant on the right has a normal bone level
That’s why all treatments at ImplArt begin with a thorough oral cleaning, as well as the removal of any infectious diseases such as cavities and periodontal disease. The patient will only have implant surgery if their mouth is clean and their oral health is good.
This is possible even if the patient doesn’t have all their teeth yet. When the prostheses on implants are finished, we teach the patient how to properly clean the dental implant. This correct hygiene is very important and certainly contributes to the chances of success of the dental implant.
Inflammation in implants leads to aesthetic, gum and bone problems
3 – Risk of facial nerve damage
If the surgery is not well planned, with the use of CT scans and other imaging tests for mapping,damage to the jaw nerve can occur during dental implant surgery. In the area at the back of the mouth in the lower arch, there is a nerve that can be very superficial, especially if the patient has been without teeth for many years.
In patients with advanced periodontal disease, bone loss can also put the nerve at risk due to its proximity.To reduce the risk of nerve damage and paresthesia, the implant dentist will carry out imaging tests. The most commonly requested exam is a panoramic X-ray, but a cone beam CT scan helps to measure the bone and plan the implant.
Computer-guided surgery – reducing risks
To minimize the risks even further, we can perform computer-guided partial or total implant surgery, which offers little invasiveness and allows for perfect positioning of the dental implant, with no room for error.
Crooked or poorly positioned implants can have poor bone integration or even rejection. It is not in all cases that we are able to recover the patient from oral nerve damage or poorly placed implants.
Depending on the severity of the problem, an injury to the jaw nerve can lead to sequelae such as numbness in the jaw or loss of sensation in the tongue or to the sensation of tastes (gustation).
At the ImplArt dental clinic, 100% of cases are operated on with a CT scan, which can be done in our own radiology center.
Guided implant surgery reduces the risk of dental implant positioning errors
4 – Risks in the bone around the implants
Bone loss can occur in an implant that has suffered infection while healing in the bone. In addition, in cases where immediate loading is carried out, i.e. a temporary or permanent tooth is placed in position immediately after surgery, there is a greater risk of bone and implant loss.
This is because the newly placed dental implant does not yet have a mature attachment to the bone and needs to rely exclusively on its mechanical locking into the bone in order to fix itself. Most of the time, if the indication and technique are correct, immediate loading works well.
But in cases of immediate failure, the consequences can be serious, for example leading to major bone loss in the area. There are more advanced dental implant models that have improvements to the fit of the tooth and also in the chemistry of the surface so that healing in the bone occurs faster and more efficiently.
