When a tooth is lost, an implant is often a good replacement option. Our oral surgeon-implantologist, Egbert van der Hoeve or
Dentist and implantologist Thijs Riemersme conduct the consultation to assess and discuss the options. If there is insufficient bone, a bone augmentation may be performed, allowing an implant to be placed at a later date.
If a front tooth needs to be replaced, it is increasingly possible to place the implant with a temporary crown on top immediately after the tooth is extracted. As a result, you do not walk around “with a gap” or a removable plate.
To properly assess this, we are the only practice in the region with an X-ray machine capable of producing a three-dimensional image (CBCT). A 3D plan is created in conjunction with the intraoral scan.
Your own dentist ultimately places the definitive crown, bridge, or prosthesis.
