Implantology & Oral Surgery Procedures

Thanks to modern local anaesthetics, tooth extractions and oral surgical procedures are now completely pain-free. The anaesthetic takes effect quickly, often within just a few minutes. At Diamond DentArt Dental Clinic in Siófok, we place great emphasis on our patients’ comfort and strive to provide a relaxed, pain-free dental experience.

When and Why Should Wisdom Teeth Be Removed?

  • Improper positioning and lack of space can cause crowding of the teeth.
  • Wisdom teeth may become a source of chronic inflammation, potentially contributing to hair loss, joint pain, or certain skin conditions.
  • As wisdom teeth continue to develop, they may cause facial swelling, gum inflammation, and pain.
  • Impacted wisdom teeth may lead to the formation of cysts, which can gradually damage the surrounding jawbone.
  • Partially erupted wisdom teeth create areas that are difficult to clean due to their anatomical position. The accumulation of bacteria in these areas frequently results in inflammation.
  • Because they are difficult to clean, wisdom teeth are more prone to decay, and weakened tooth structure may eventually fracture.

Even while enjoying your holiday at Lake Balaton, you don’t have to worry if you need a wisdom tooth removed!

What Is a Dental Implant?

A dental implant is a medical-grade titanium screw with a specially treated surface that is placed into the jawbone. Over time, it naturally fuses with the surrounding bone, creating a strong and stable foundation.

Once fully integrated, and with proper oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, a dental implant can last a lifetime while providing reliable support for a dental restoration.

Why Choose Dental Implants

  • Secure and stable fixation
  • Occupies no more space than a natural tooth
  • No need for bulky dentures supported by the gums
  • The restoration does not cover the palate, reducing the risk of gagging
  • Taste perception remains unaffected
  • Adjacent healthy teeth do not need to be prepared or ground down

The Dental Implant Procedure

  1. Treatment Planning: To achieve the best possible outcome, the oral surgeon and the prosthodontist work closely together to develop a personalised treatment plan.
  2. CBCT Examination: Before treatment, a CBCT scan is performed to accurately assess the available bone volume and determine the ideal implant position.
  3. Implant Placement: The procedure is carried out under local anaesthesia, making it completely pain-free. Thanks to meticulous planning, implant placement is both highly precise and efficient.
  4. Healing Phase: The sutures are removed approximately one week after surgery. This is followed by a healing period of around three months, during which the implant integrates with the jawbone. If appropriate, fixed temporary teeth can already be provided during this period before the final restoration is placed.

What Is Bone Grafting and When Is It Necessary?

If a significant amount of time has passed since a tooth was extracted, natural bone resorption may occur, making bone grafting necessary before implant placement.

In most cases, the missing bone is augmented using a special bone graft material that integrates exceptionally well with the body’s own tissues. In cases of more extensive bone loss, advanced bone block grafting techniques may be used to ensure long-term treatment success.
