Dental Implants

Dental implants are an option for replacing one or more missing teeth. An implant is placed within the jawbone to support a crown, bridge, or another suitable restoration. This approach helps restore dental appearance and function and, in selected cases, can replace a missing tooth without preparing the neighbouring teeth.

At Dr. Ahmed Elwan’s Clinic, implant planning starts with a comprehensive oral examination and an assessment of gum and jawbone health, supported by appropriate imaging when needed. Your medical history and factors that may affect healing are also considered to determine suitability and whether any preparatory treatment is required.

Treatment usually involves planning, implant placement, a healing period, and the fitting of the final restoration. The sequence and timing depend on your individual circumstances. Once treatment is complete, thorough daily cleaning and regular dental reviews are important for maintaining the health of the tissues around the implant.
