Dental implants in Las Arenas, Getxo

A dental implant is a support placed in the jawbone to hold a crown or another dental prosthesis. Replacing missing teeth requires planning that takes chewing function, hygiene and appearance into account.

Implants may be considered when one or more teeth are missing, provided your general health, gum health and jawbone allow treatment.

Replacement of missing teeth; Support for a stable prosthesis; Planning that considers chewing function.

We assess your mouth and request imaging when indicated. The implant position, surgery and prosthesis are planned together. The schedule depends on healing and the needs of your case.

Treatment includes surgery, implant integration and fitting the prosthesis. Same-day temporary teeth are not suitable for every case; we explain the expected stages and timing.

The procedure is usually carried out under local anaesthetic. Swelling or discomfort can occur afterwards, and you will receive individual aftercare instructions.

Keep the area around the implant clean, avoid smoking and attend maintenance visits. Although an implant cannot develop tooth decay, the surrounding tissues can develop inflammation and bone loss.

It is not a solution for life without care. There are risks of infection, failure of integration and complications of the prosthesis, in addition to those of surgery.

Depending on the available space and the design, several implants can support a bridge or a full-arch prosthesis. The number is based on clinical needs, not simply the number of missing teeth.

Request an assessment in Bilbao or Las Arenas. We will examine your teeth and gums, answer your questions and explain the options and costs before you decide. The suitability and availability of each technique are confirmed at your consultation.
