Single dental implant with Crown
Dental implants are a state-of-the-art solution for replacing missing teeth, crafted from medical-grade titanium that integrates seamlessly with your jawbone.
Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, dental implants do not require the alteration of neighboring teeth, preserving your natural tooth structure and providing a standalone solution that mimics the function and appearance of your natural teeth. It is definitely one of the most popular method to replace missing teeth.
Why Choose Dental Implants?
Dental implants in Singapore have become the preferred method for restoring missing teeth due to their durability and ease of maintenance. Each implant is a complete system consisting of three parts: the crown, the abutment, and the fixture, which together provide a reliable and long-lasting tooth replacement.
Components of a Dental Implant
Dental Implant Crown
The crown is the top part of the dental implant, visible above the gum line. It's meticulously crafted to look and function like a natural tooth. Crowns are made from various durable materials, such as Zirconia or porcelain, which can be matched to the color of your natural teeth. This ensures a seamless integration into your smile, replacing the missing teeth. The crown is attached to the implant through the abutment, providing reliable strength and a natural appearance for everyday activities like eating and speaking. Every dental implant is tailored to meet the unique oral conditions of our patients. You can choose from high-quality materials for your crown, such as Zirconia or Porcelain Fused to Metal (PFM). Each material has its advantages, and our dental surgeons are on hand to guide you in selecting the best option to replace your missing teeth.
Dental Implant Abutment
The abutment serves as a critical connector between the crown and the implant fixture. It is typically made from titanium or ceramic, offering robust support and stability. The abutment is securely fastened to the implant fixture that's embedded in the jawbone, and then the crown is attached to the top of the abutment. This component plays a pivotal role in ensuring that the crown fits perfectly and remains aligned with the surrounding teeth, maintaining overall dental health and function.
Dental Implant Fixture
The fixture is the foundational component of a dental implant, deeply anchored into the jawbone. Made from biocompatible materials like titanium, it is designed to integrate into the bone through a process known as osseointegration after the dental implant surgery. Over time, the jawbone grows around the implant fixture, solidifying its position and providing a sturdy base akin to a natural tooth root. This integration helps prevent bone loss and maintains the structure of the face and jaw, making the fixture a permanent and stable support for the entire implant structure.

Which brand to choose?
When comparing dental implant cost and brands of different dental implants, Osstem/Dentium and Straumann present distinct options. Osstem/Dentium, are South Korean brand, renowned for its cost-effectiveness, making them an attractive choice for those seeking affordable and reliable dental implants. On the other hand, Straumann, a premium Swiss brand, is celebrated for its exceptional quality, precision, and advanced technologies, such as Roxolid alloy and SLActive surface technology, which contribute to its higher cost. While Straumann implants offer superior durability and performance, their price is significantly higher than others. As a result, the decision between these two brands often depends on the patient’s budget and the specific clinical requirements of their dental treatment
Single Tooth Dental Implant
The most common of dental implant cases that we often encountered. After a thorough oral examination and if the patient is suitable for a dental implant, our dentist will proceed to replace the void left by the missing tooth with a dental implant. This whole surgery usually takes about 30-60mins and the patient will be able to leave the clinic after the end of the surgery.
Dental Implants Supported Bridge
When missing multiple teeth, a dental implant supported bridge will be very helpful for this situation. For example, a patient is missing 3 teeth in a row. Instead of having 3 single dental implant, which roughly cost about $6000-$7000. Dental implants supported bridge consists of 2 single dental implant and a 3 unit dental crown will be able to achieve similar results for a more affordable price! The bridge will be supported by 2 dental implants anchored on both ends of the dental bridge.
Dental Implant Supported Dentures
For patients who are missing a whole set of teeth and they are unable to get used to wearing a full set denture, an implant supported denture might just be the solution they need.
Depending on their oral condition, one might need 2-4 dental implants to be inserted into their jawbone. Thereafter, a full arch denture will be placed on top of the dental implants keeping the full arch denture firmly in place.
All on 4 / Full Mouth dental implants
This treatment is designed for patients who are missing multiple teeth or are in need of a full arch restoration. It utilizes a combination of dental implants and fixed dental prostheses to provide a secure, functional, and aesthetic replacement for natural teeth.
The Pro Arch solution typically involves placing four or more implants in the jawbone, which serve as a stable foundation for a full dental bridge or overdenture. This technique is often referred to as "All-on-4" when exactly four implants are used, though the number can vary depending on the specific needs and bone conditions of the patient.
Dental Implant Consultation & 3D Xray
During the initial dental implant surgery consultation, our state-of-the-art facility utilizes an in-house 3D X-ray to meticulously assess your oral structure. This critical step helps us determine your candidacy for dental implants and whether additional procedures like bone grafting or sinus lift might be necessary. Following the imaging, our dental surgeon will engage in a comprehensive discussion with you about the proposed treatment plan.We will provide a detailed overview of the dental implant surgery procedure, financial planning, including what you can expect during the surgery, the healing process, and the outcomes. This session is designed to ensure you are fully informed and comfortable with the forthcoming steps in your journey to a restored smile.
Preparatory Procedures (if necessary)
Tooth Extraction: If there is an existing tooth where the implant will be placed, it may need to be extracted prior to implant placement. Bone Grafting: If the jawbone lacks sufficient density or volume to support the implant, bone grafting may be required. This procedure involves adding bone material to enhance the implant site and requires an additional healing period. Sinus Lift: In cases where dental implants are needed in the upper jaw and there is insufficient bone height near the sinuses, a sinus lift may be performed. This involves elevating the sinus membrane and placing bone graft material beneath it to support the implant.
Dental Implant Surgery
Before commencing the dental implant surgery, the patient will receive local anesthesia to ensure comfort and a pain-free experience in the area where the implant is to be placed. The dental implant fixture is then meticulously and surgically inserted into the jawbone. After the implant has been securely positioned, a critical healing phase of typically 2-4 months follows. This period allows the jawbone to naturally integrate with the implant, a process known as osseointegration. Throughout this time, the implant will fuse with the bone, creating a stable and durable foundation for the new tooth. Additionally, for patients seeking immediate results, a same-day crowning option is available upon request, allowing for the placement of a temporary crown on the same day as the implant surgery.
Dental Implant Crown
Following the osseointegration period of 2-4 months, during which the implant securely fuses with the jawbone, a follow-up appointment is scheduled. At this session, the next phase involves the precise fabrication of a custom-made dental implant crown. This crown is designed to match the natural color, shape, and function of your teeth, ensuring a seamless integration with your smile. Our skilled dental team will meticulously tailor the crown to fit comfortably and aesthetically with your existing teeth, enhancing both the functionality and appearance of your dental implant
Regular Checkups
After the successful placement of the crown, regular check ups are crucial to ensure the long-term success of your dental implant. These sessions allow our dental team to monitor the implant, surrounding gums, and overall oral health, ensuring everything remains in optimal condition. During these visits, we provide guidance on proper oral hygiene practices specifically tailored to care for your new implant. Regular check-ups are an essential part of maintaining the health and aesthetics of your implant, helping to detect any potential issues early and keeping your smile looking its best
