<\/a>Frequently asked questions about implantology in Zurich<\/h2>\nHow Long Does a Dental Implant Last with Proper Care?<\/h3>\n
A high-quality dental implant often lasts 20 years or even a lifetime with optimal care. Studies prove that after 10 years, over 95 percent of implants are still firmly anchored in the jaw. Crucial for this long-term success is excellent oral hygiene and regular professional teeth cleaning in our practice. We support you with an individual preventive concept to effectively prevent inflammation such as peri-implantitis. <\/p>\n
Is the placement of an implant associated with pain?<\/h3>\n
The surgical procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so you usually do not feel any pain during the treatment. Our team attaches great importance to empathetic care and a calm atmosphere to make your stay as pleasant as possible. After the anesthesia wears off, slight swelling or a feeling of pressure may occur. These usually subside after 2 to 4 days and can be treated well. <\/p>\n
Approximately how much does a complete dental implant cost in Zurich?<\/h3>\n
The costs for a complete implant including the abutment and crown vary depending on the effort, but in Zurich they are usually between 3,500 CHF and 5,500 CHF. Transparency is important to us; which is why we create a detailed treatment and cost plan for you after the diagnosis. This way, you know all the financial aspects in advance. We rely on fair prices and high-quality materials so that your investment in dental health is secured in the long term. <\/p>\n
How long does the entire treatment take from planning to the crown?<\/h3>\n
The entire treatment in the field of implantology Zurich takes an average of between 3 and 6 months. After precise digital planning and the placement of the implant, the body needs time for osseointegration. This healing phase usually lasts 12 weeks in the lower jaw and about 24 weeks in the upper jaw. Only then is the final, custom-made crown firmly fixed onto the implant to guarantee full load-bearing capacity. <\/p>\n
Are there alternatives to dental implants if the bone is insufficient?<\/h3>\n
If the existing bone volume is insufficient, bone augmentation is a proven method to create a stable foundation. Alternatively, depending on the findings, bridges or partial dentures can be considered. Thanks to modern technology and special implant types, however, we find a solution for fixed dentures in most cases. We advise you in detail on the individual possibilities and risks of the various treatment paths for your situation. <\/p>\n
Does health insurance in Switzerland cover the costs of implants?<\/h3>\n
In Switzerland, health insurance companies usually only cover the costs for implants in the event of serious accidents or certain birth defects. Mandatory health insurance does not normally cover dental services. However, many patients have private supplementary dental insurance that covers part of the costs. We recommend that you clarify cost coverage directly with your insurance company before starting treatment, and we will be happy to support you with the necessary documents. <\/p>\n
What should I consider regarding diet after the operation?<\/h3>\n
In the first 24 hours after the operation, you should avoid hot drinks, caffeine, alcohol, and nicotine. As long as the local anesthesia is effective, it is advisable not to eat anything at all to avoid injury to the cheek mucosa. In the following 3 to 7 days, soft food such as soups, yogurt, or puree is ideal. Also avoid spicy seasonings and crumbly foods that could irritate the wound. <\/p>\n
