There is a fixed work on eight implants, or conditionally fixed work on four implants usually. Here is our proven, standard protocol.
1st step
During your first visit, we will make a clinical examination and clear snapshot of the jaw. Depending on your expectations and preferences, and individual anatomy, we will propose the best possible solution for you. With a help of the animated movie and demonstration models, we will provide you an accurate presentation of the solution.
First visit after the initial agreement includes extracting teeth and taking an imprint for a temporary dental prosthesis ( eg. temporary crown or prosthesis, depending on your situation ) that you should wear on the same day – so don’t be afraid of going back home without teeth, your temporarily prosthesis will be taken care about before you leave our Clinic!
Depending on your clinical situation and the information read from transparent X- ray scanning, we will recommend an accurate threedimensional jaw snapshot (CT) yet during your very first visit, or 24 months after dental extraction. CT scan is required in order to assess the dimension and quality of the jaw bone. Based on CT scan, we plan total number and arrangement of implants, and if needed, possible appropriate measures for jaw construction ( augmentation ).
2nd step
We have made some CT scans, together we decided to select a prosthetic solution that suits you the best. We begin to work. We will prepare you for the surgery room – one of our specialists in oral surgery and implantology will wait for you there. After a detailed description of the procedure, we will start to operate. Surely, you must be asking yourself whether placing the implants is painful? The procedure itself isn’t painful, eventually, you may feel the tingling sensation of anesthesia, as well as the surgeon’s hand movements, but nothing more than that. You will be provided with detailed written instructions how to behave after the procedure, including all necessary medications and all little things you may need after the surgery.
Written instructions are also available on our website.
After the procedure is over, again you will meet your prosthodontist to arrange the continuation of your therapy with.
3rd step
Next term and next step to continue with the procedure, counts after 26 months from initial putting the implants. The surgeon will open implants and put the secondary screws for healing that will shape gingiva in your jaw.
4th step
One month after putting the secondary screws, we will take the definite imprint of your final teeth.
5th step
Two weeks after the imprint is taken, in consultation with dental technicians, we will perform the rehearse of your definite teeth.
6th step
There’s nothing else left for us to do, yet to enjoy with you in your new smile! Bon appetit!
