Dental Implant
Healthy oral conditions are not only important for your aesthetic appearance, but also play a crucial role in your overall health. Replacing missing teeth with dental implants and implant crowns allows you to enjoy your life to the fullest without the discomfort that comes with missing teeth.
Dental implants with implant crowns help to minimize bone loss in the areas of missing teeth. This in turn helps to preserve your natural teeth and facial contours. Dental implant restoration also reduces the risk of poor eating habits that often occur in patients who do not replace their missing teeth.

The advantages of dental implants
Healthy oral conditions are not only important for your aesthetic appearance, but also play a decisive role in your general health. Replacing missing teeth with dental implants and implant crowns allows you to enjoy your life to the full without the discomfort that comes with missing teeth.
Dental implants with implant crowns help to minimize bone loss in the areas of missing teeth. This in turn helps to preserve your natural teeth and facial contours. The provision of dental implants also reduces the risk of poor dietary habits that often occur in patients who do not replace their missing teeth.
How can dental implants improve your health?
Tooth loss or the use of non-implant supported solutions can affect the ability to enjoy certain foods such as fresh vegetables and fruit, which can have an impact on diet. Denture wearers may also experience impaired taste sensation and sometimes have difficulty chewing, which can affect digestion. Dental implants function like natural teeth and therefore contribute to better health by improving nutrition, maintaining the sense of taste and facilitating digestion.

Frequently asked questions
After a dental implant, smoking can have negative effects on the healing process and the success of the implant, e.g.
- Delayed wound healing
- Increased risk of infection
- Implant loss
Smoking should be avoided or greatly reduced after dental implantation as it can affect the healing and success of the implant. In general, it is strongly recommended not to smoke for at least 14 days before and after implantation. This period of time is crucial for the successful healing process of the implants.
Sick leave is usually not required for simple dental implants, which are usually quick and straightforward. However, for more complex implantations that require extensive bone building work, the sick leave can last up to a week.
Yes, swelling and mild pain are normal after dental implant surgery. These symptoms are part of the natural healing process and should subside after a few days to a week.
As a rule, however, you should avoid physical exertion and get enough rest for at least 24 to 48 hours after dental implant surgery.
After dental implantation, you should not eat anything while the anesthesia is still taking effect. Afterwards, you should prefer soft foods while the wound is healing and the stitches have not yet been removed. This helps prevent potential irritation or injury to the wound and supports a smooth healing process. Your dentist will give you detailed instructions on how to do this.
If missing teeth are not replaced, several problems can arise:
- Chewing and speaking problems
- Tooth displacements
- Bone loss
- Aesthetic problems
- Overloading the remaining teeth
- Functional impairments
Overall, not replacing missing teeth can lead to various health and aesthetic problems. It is therefore important to replace missing teeth to avoid these problems.
The same applies to implants as when caring for your natural teeth: brush your teeth at least twice a day, morning and evening. Use proper brushing technique.
After implantation, patients should pay attention to the following:
- Avoid smoking - Avoid coffee and alcohol
- Avoid excessive exertion
Good oral hygiene and disinfectant rinses are crucial to preventing infections. If necessary, antibiotics may be prescribed to prevent inflammation. Regular check-ups are important to monitor implant health.
Before the implantation you can expect:
- Discussion: Your dentist will discuss your prosthetic needs and the number of implants required.
- Preliminary examination: Check for inflammation and suitability for the procedure. In the case of inflammation, treatment is given first, and in the case of bone deficits, bone augmentation may be necessary.
- Implant planning: Use of computer-aided 3D planning to create a treatment and cost plan.
Please note that statutory health insurance companies do not cover the costs of dental implants, but only subsidize the dentures. The costs for the implants usually have to be borne by yourself.
Yes, dental implants can be damaged, for example by excessive stress, accidents or infections. However, regular monitoring and good oral hygiene help minimize the risk of damage.
Regular monitoring of dental implants is crucial. In general, you should have your implants checked every 6 months. This helps identify and treat problems early. Your dentist will determine the appropriate check intervals individually.
The procedure is divided into the following four steps:
- Step: Opening the mucous membrane.
- Step: Screwing the implant into the bone.
- Step: Inserting a locking screw into the implant to allow for the healing time.
- Step: Final suturing of the wound.
Implants can last a lifetime if they are well cared for. Their durability depends on oral health, bone quality and regular check-ups.
The healing phase lasts several months, depending on the individual course. After the anesthesia has worn off, it is already possible to eat and drink. However, in the first few days it is advisable to avoid hot, hard or spicy foods and drinks.
Yes, with dental implants it is usually possible to maintain a normal and varied diet.
Dental implants are generally not covered by compulsory health insurance. The cost of dental implants is usually borne by the patient themselves. As with everything, there can be exceptions, for example if the tooth loss was caused by an accident.
Dental implants may be an appropriate option to replace missing teeth for adults in good general health. However, there are certain factors that are taken into account when evaluating a patient's suitability for an implant, such as jawbone condition, oral health and smoking habits. An accurate assessment by a dentist is required to determine whether a patient is suitable for a dental implant.
The time it takes to place a dental implant can vary depending on various factors such as the number of implants, the condition of the jawbone and individual circumstances. In general, the process until a dental implant is placed can take several months. It is expected that each implant will take 30 minutes to place.
In some cases, an implant can be placed immediately after a tooth is extracted; this is called immediate implantation. However, this is not always possible and depends on various factors, such as the condition of the jawbone and the inflammation of the removed tooth. During an appointment, your individual situation will be assessed and a decision will be made as to whether immediate implantation is suitable for you.
The placement of dental implants is usually performed under local anesthesia, so the procedure itself is not painful. However, after implantation, you may experience mild pain or discomfort, which can usually be treated with painkillers.
Disadvantages of dental implants can include:
- Cost: Implants are more expensive than other options.
- Surgical procedure: The implantation requires a surgical procedure.
- Healing time: It may take a few months for the implant to heal completely.
- Not suitable for everyone: Not everyone is a suitable candidate for implants.
- Infections or complications: As with any surgical procedure, there is a small risk of infections or complications.
A dental implant in our clinic starts at a price of CHF 4,500. Please note, however, that the exact price depends on various factors, such as the number of implants, the condition of the jawbone and any additional services. It is advisable to make an appointment with our dentist to get an accurate cost estimate.
