It is implanted into the jaw bone and knits together with the bone. This process is regularly inspected and takes 2-6 months depending on the method. Thereafter, the prosthesis will be attached to the implant:</p> <p> <img src="./impla/Implantat3.JPG" style="width: 113px; height: 100px" alt="Implant" title="Implant" /> </p> <h2 style="clear: left;">Why is an implant recommended?</h2> <p>After decades of scientific research implants have performed excellently in practice and offer many advantages:</p> <ul> <li>The dentures do not slip and do not fall out.</li> <li>With implants there is no need to grind intact neighboring teeth, as would be necessary with bridge work.</li> <li>An implant is also excellently suited as a stable fundament to fit a prosthesis.</li> <li>Inflammations are significantly reduced due to avoiding pressure points caused by a prosthesis.</li> <li>Had the loss of one or more teeth been caused by an accident, an implant can be an ideal alternative to bridge work or removable dental prosthesis.</li> </ul> <h2>What is the result of an implant?</h2> <p>Where teeth are missing, jaw-bones where teeth are missing deteriorate over the time. In certain cases this deterioration is promoted by removable dentures. It can frequently be observed that the jaw-bone is preserved if an inserted implant strains it – like a natural tooth would. The initial situation can be restored and debate, sense of taste and facial expressions are retained.</p> <p>What’s more, psychological stress, which the wearing of a removable dental prosthesis sometimes brings about, is avoided. This means: an implant not only provides functional benefits; greater self-esteem and quality of life are the additional advantages.</p> <table style="width: 60%; table-layout: fixed;"> <tr> <td style="width: 33.33%;"> <img style="width: 100%;" src="./impla/StegaufImplantaten.JPG" /> </td> <td style="width: 33.33%;"> <img style="width: 100%;" src="./impla/StegaufImplantaten4.JPG" /> </td> <td style="width: 33.33%;"> <img style="width: 100%;" src="./impla/StegaufImplantaten3.JPG" /> </td> </tr> </table>  </div> <hr /> <div id="Navigation"> <h2>Navigation</h2> <ul> <li> <h3> <a href="http://www.dr-uphoff.com/?nav=start&hl=en">Welcome!</a> </h3> </li> <li> <h3> <a href="http://www.dr-uphoff.com/?nav=erreichbar&hl=en">You reach us …</a> </h3> </li> <li> <h3> <a href="http://www.dr-uphoff.com/?nav=HVV&hl=en">… via Public Transport</a> </h3> </li> <li> <h3> <a href="http://www.dr-uphoff.com/?nav=kutsche&hl=en">… by car</a> </h3> </li> <li> <h3> <a href="http://www.dr-uphoff.com/?nav=GoogleMaps&hl=en">… with Google Maps</a> </h3> </li> <li> <h3>Our Dentistry</h3> <ul> <li> <h4 style="background-color: gold; border: thin solid goldenrod;">Implants</h4> </li> <li> <h4> <a href="http://www.dr-uphoff.com/?nav=sthetik&hl=en">Aesthetics</a> </h4> </li> <li> <h4> <a href="http://www.dr-uphoff.com/?nav=zahnersatz&hl=en">Dentures</a> </h4> </li> <li> <h4> <a href="http://www.dr-uphoff.com/?nav=bleichen&hl=en">Bleaching</a> </h4> </li> <li> <h4> <a href="http://www.dr-uphoff.com/?nav=reinigung&hl=en">Professional Tooth Cleaning</a> </h4> </li> <li> <h4> <a href="http://www.dr-uphoff.com/?nav=prophylaxe&hl=en">Prophylaxis</a> </h4> </li> <li> <h4> <a href="http://www.dr-uphoff.com/?nav=fuellungen&hl=en">Fillings</a> </h4> </li> <li> <h4> <a href="http://www.dr-uphoff.com/?nav=paradontose&hl=en">Periodontosis</a> </h4> </li> <li> <h4> <a href="http://www.dr-uphoff.com/?nav=zahnpflege&hl=en">Dental Care</a> </h4> </li> </ul> </li> <li> <h3> <a href="http://www.dr-uphoff.com/?nav=TMG&hl=en">Mandatory Information</a> </h3> <ul> <li> <h4> <a href="http://www.dr-uphoff.com/?nav=TMG&hl=en">(Imprint)</a> </h4> </li> </ul> </li> </ul> </div> <hr /> <address id="Fusszeile"> © Dr. Jan B.
