Why you shouldn't be afraid of dental implantation and "rejection"?<\/h3>\n
\n\t

Modern dental implantation is now an extremely safe procedure with biocompatible implants made of titanium, where the classic "rejection" is almost unthinkable - rare problems (2-5%) usually arise due to inadequate bone quality, smoking, diabetes or poor hygiene. The success rate can be increased to nearly 98% with careful planning (CBCT, bone grafting), sterile conditions and regular control, while the procedure is less painful than a tooth extraction under local anesthesia. In the long term, the implant serves stably for decades, does not decay and preserves the jawbone with proper care.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The implant is most often made of titanium \u2013 the same material that has been used for decades.
\nIt has been successfully used in orthopedic prostheses (e.g. hip and knee implants) since.
\nThe special thing about titanium is that it is biocompatible, meaning the body does not treat it as a foreign body.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

In everyday language we often talk about rejection, but in dentistry
\nWith implants, rejection in the classical sense is almost non-existent.
\nWhat can rarely happen is that the implant does not ossify properly (this is called
\ncalled osseointegration).
\nThis is not due to immunological reasons, but in general:
\n- inadequate bone quality or quantity
\n- smoking
\n- untreated diabetes
\n- poor oral hygiene
\n- too early loading<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

According to statistics, the success rate of modern implants is 95\u201398%.
\nThis means that only 2-5 out of 100 implants will have a problem, and these
\nmost of them can also be treated or reimplanted.
\nHow do we reduce the risk?
\nThe key to success is careful planning and consideration of individual risks:
\n- detailed condition assessment and CBCT scan
\n- bone grafting if necessary
\n- sterile conditions
\n- personalized aftercare advice
\n- regular check-ups<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
