Implant dentistry

Dental implants involve placing an artificial root into the jaw, with a crown attached on top. The implant is designed to function and look as similar as possible to a natural tooth.

If you need quality dental implants in Ivano-Frankivsk, at Masych Clinic we provide a complete service, from careful diagnostics to long-term guarantees on the outcome.

1. In the case of a single tooth loss.
2. As an alternative to dental bridges.

If you prefer not to grind healthy teeth to place a bridge, it is important to note that, in the case of a missing tooth, it is necessary to reduce the adjacent teeth. By placing an implant, both chewing function and aesthetics are restored without compromising healthy teeth.

3. In cases of complete edentulism (total tooth loss).

У таких випадках використовують методики All-on-4 або All-on-6, що дозволяють вставити незнімні зубні протези на верхню та нижню щелепи.

What types of dental implants do we place at our dental clinic?

We use trusted, reliable implant systems that are well-established in dental practices worldwide.

Here’s an overview of the most popular solutions we use.

1. Straumann (Switzerland) – a global leader in the field of implantology:

• Manufactured from the highest grade medical titanium or the latest Roxolid® alloy;
• Have a unique SLActive® nanoparticle coating that helps speed up bone integration;
• suitable for the most complex clinical situations.

2. DIO (South Korea) – one of the most dynamic systems in digital implantology.

• Complete digital integration: the ability for computer-assisted planning and 3D navigation;
• optimal price-quality ratio;
• suitable for single-stage or two-stage implantation;
• frequently used in aesthetic zones.

3. Neodent (Brazil) – officially part of the Straumann group, combining reliability and economic accessibility:

• modern systems for rapid implant stabilization in the bone;
• A great option for All-on-4 protocols and immediate loading implant procedures;
• high efficiency at a more affordable price.

Dental implantation: what factors influence the price of a single implant?

The cost of dental implantation primarily depends on the quality of the implant itself, as well as the experience and skills of the surgeon.

If you are considering dental implantation, the cost of the procedure may vary depending on additional treatments, such as tooth extraction for implant placement or bone grafting.

Required preparation for dental implantation

Preparing for implants is not just a ‘one-time visit’—it’s a thorough process carried out by a team of specialists: a dentist, surgeon, periodontist, and prosthodontist. Quality preparation guarantees long-lasting and reliable results, which is why every step in our clinic follows the latest international standards.

1. Comprehensive examination and planning:

• the doctor assesses the overall condition of the oral cavity, as well as the presence of chronic diseases (such as diabetes, cardiovascular conditions), harmful habits, and the use of medications that may impact the implantation process;
• Computed tomography (CT) is the ‘gold standard’ for dental implantation diagnostics. It allows the assessment of bone height, density, and width, as well as the position of the maxillary sinuses and the location of nerves. Implantation planning is not possible without CT.

2. Professional hygiene and oral cavity sanitation.
3. Pre-surgical procedures.

Not all patients have sufficient jawbone volume. In such cases, the doctor may recommend:

• sinus lifting: lifting the floor of the sinus and adding bone material to prepare the area for an implant (commonly done for the upper jaw).
• bone grafting: increasing the bone’s width or height using your own or synthetic bone material;
• tooth extraction: if some teeth can’t be saved, they are removed beforehand or at the same time as the implant placement.

4. Immediate implant placement.

Types of dental implants we offer.

At Masych Clinic, we use modern implantation techniques that allow for the restoration of a single lost tooth or a full set of teeth. The method is selected individually, taking into account the condition of the jawbone, the number of missing teeth, the clinical situation, and the patient’s preferences.

Main types of implantation procedures we perform:

1. Single tooth implantation.
   
   This is the least invasive and most aesthetically pleasing method, helping to keep your healthy neighboring teeth intact.
2. Multiple tooth implantation.
   
   This method is used when two or more consecutive teeth are lost. Two or more implants are placed at the site of the defect, with individual crowns placed on each implant, ensuring high-quality hygiene and aesthetics.
3. Implantation using the All-on-4 method.
   
   This method involves full restoration of the dental arch on an edentulous jaw. Four implants are placed, with two posterior implants angled for better stability. A fixed prosthesis with 12–14 teeth is placed on them. This is an effective solution for total tooth loss and partial bone atrophy.
4. Implantation using the All-on-6 method.
   
   An enhanced version of the previous method. Six implants are placed: four along the standard axis and two angled in the area of the sixth and seventh teeth. This approach provides greater strength and even distribution of masticatory forces.
