Can I blow my nose after the procedure?

Avoid strong nose blowing for several days. Use saline solution to clean gently. Also avoid sneezing with your mouth closed during the first days.

Can I eat normally with an implant?

Yes, once the crown is placed, normal chewing is possible.

Can the implant move over time?

A well-integrated implant should not move. Professional monitoring ensures long-term stability.

How should I care for a dental implant?

Careful brushing with a soft toothbrush and the use of interdental brushes are essential. Regular check-ups are required.

Is follow-up necessary after implant placement?

Yes, regular check-ups are essential to ensure the implant’s health.

Is it normal to feel discomfort or pain after implant placement?

Yes, moderate pain is expected for 2 to 5 days and is usually controlled with paracetamol. If pain persists or increases, consult your dentist.

Is it normal to have a blocked or bleeding nose after a sinus lift?

Yes, slight nasal bleeding may occur for 24 to 48 hours. Avoid blowing your nose forcefully.

Is there a risk of sinus infection?

A risk exists, though rare. Watch for purulent nasal discharge, fever, or persistent pain.

What are the signs of a complication?

Severe pain, excessive swelling, fever, purulent discharge, or fluid sensation in the nose should alert you.

What are the signs of implant rejection or failure?

Implant mobility, persistent pain, bleeding, or pus discharge are warning signs. Consult immediately.

When can the crown be placed on the implant?

Generally after 4 to 6 months, once the implant is fully integrated into the bone.

When is the grafted bone integrated?

It generally takes 4 to 6 months for the graft to integrate and allow implant placement .

Will I feel the graft?

A foreign body sensation or pressure is normal and disappears within a few days.

Implantology and bone grafting

Dental implants are a modern and long-lasting solution to replace one or more missing teeth. They provide optimal comfort, perfect functionality, and a natural aesthetic result.

At the practice, implants are placed by Dr. Simon Perrin and Dr. Philippe Kayasseh.

Single implant

When a single tooth is missing, two options are available:

Placement of a dental implant: a titanium artificial root is integrated into the bone to support a perfectly adapted crown.
Placement of a bridge: if adjacent teeth are already damaged, a bridge may be proposed as an alternative.

After implant placement, a healing period is required to ensure proper osseointegration before the prosthesis is fitted.

Multiple implants

In cases of several missing teeth, it is not always necessary to place one implant per missing tooth.
We prefer strategic implants connected by an implant-supported bridge, restoring the maximum number of teeth with the minimum number of implants while ensuring strength and aesthetics.

In the case of full-arch replacement, fewer implants are placed than the number of missing teeth. The goal is to restore the entire arch with an implant-supported bridge. In the maxilla (upper arch), between 4 and 8 implants are placed to replace the 12 teeth normally present. In the mandible (lower arch), between 4 and 6 implants are placed to replace the 12 teeth normally present.

Implants in the aesthetic zone

Visible teeth such as incisors or canines require special attention.

We use advanced technologies to:

Guarantee a natural aesthetic outcome (shape, color, gum harmony).
Provide optimal functionality for daily comfort.

Bone grafting: the foundation of a strong implant

For some patients, implant placement requires bone volume augmentation to ensure a stable and durable fixation.

Different bone grafting techniques:

Guided bone regeneration: stimulates bone growth in deficient areas.
Allogeneic grafts: using safe, treated human bone.
Autogenous grafts: bone harvested from the patient for optimal integration.
Sinus lift: raising the sinus floor to allow implant placement in the posterior maxilla when the sinus is too close.

Our team always favors the least invasive and most reliable technique to minimize risks and ensure rapid healing.

Personalized support

At every stage of treatment, our experienced team strives to:

Clearly explain all available options.
Ensure maximum comfort and total safety.
Deliver aesthetic and functional results perfectly tailored to your needs.
