Dental Implant in Sector 6 Bucharest - options, prices and stages of treatment
Losing a tooth not only affects the aesthetics of your smile, but also the way you chew and the overall health of your oral cavity. A dental implant is one of the the safest and most durable solution for replacing a missing tooth.
At SmileCity, in Sector 6 Bucharest (Ghencea area), implantology treatments are performed on the basis of a customized plan, established after consultation and radiologic investigations.
When do you need a dental implant?
Dental implants are recommended when one or more teeth are missing and it is necessary to restore the mastication function and aesthetic appearance.
Most common situations where dental implants are recommended are:
- tooth loss due to decay or infection
- dental trauma
- missing several teeth
- replacing an unstable prosthesis
Compared to other solutions, dental implants have the advantage of not affecting neighboring teeth.
Alternatives could be:
Dental bridge
that require sanding healthy teeth
Dentures
which may be less stable
The implant works like an artificial titanium root that integrates into the bone and supports the dental crown.
Stages of dental implant treatment
Dental implant treatment is done in several stages.
1. Consultation and investigations
The doctor analyzes the clinical and radiological situation. An X-ray or CBCT is usually needed to assess bone volume.
2. Treatment plan
On the basis of the investigations it is established:
- type of implant
- the need for bone addition
- number of implants
3. Inserting the implant
Surgery is performed under local anesthesia and takes about 30-60 minutes for one implant.
In most cases the procedure is minimally invasive.
3. Healing period
The implant needs a period of osseointegration, which generally takes between 3 and 6 months.
3. Prosthetic work
After implant integration, the permanent dental crown is fixed.
The end result is a stable and functional tooth.

When bone addition or sinus lift is needed
In some situations, the jawbone does not have enough volume to support the dental implant.
This usually occurs when the missing tooth has been missing for a long time.
The procedures that may be necessary are:
Bone addition
A procedure in which bone material is added to increase bone volume.
Sinus lift
Procedure used in the upper jaw to create enough space for the implant.
The doctor determines the need for these procedures after radiologic evaluation.
