About Dental Implants
A dental implant is made of artificial biocompatible material that is placed in your jaw bone through a surgical procedure. The component inserted in the bone is called a fixture. After the initial healing period, an abutment that resembles the missing teeth is placed. The implant surgery can be performed in a single step surgical procedure or with two steps surgical procedure
What Happens If You Don’t Replace
Dental Implant Process
01
Oral examination
The dentist at Meiplus Dentalcare Singapore will examine your entire mouth during your consultation, including your teeth, jaw, gums, soft tissues, and your occlusion (the way your teeth bite together).
02
Consultation for treatment plan
You can discuss all the treatment options with us, including the advantages and disadvantages of each, and we can give you detailed information about your treatment.Temporary tooth replacement can also be arranged so there will be no gap visible during your treatment. (Includes denture)
03
Placement of fixture
(without crowning)
A dental implant placement can either be a one-step or two-step procedure. For the one-step procedure, the abutment or healing cap is placed along with the implant.Implants are placed in the bone and then the gums are covered over during the 2 step process.
04
Placement of crown or
bridge
In place of traditional impressions, a digital scan is taken using an intraoral scanner.To achieve a natural appearance, porcelains and ceramics are layered using several shades

Dental implants prevent bone loss
During development, a highly resilient condition called periodontal ligament and jawbone is responsible for anchoring your natural teeth.The roots of your teeth prevent the bone from resorbing by stimulating it.Due to the loss of stimulation, when you lose your teeth, your bone density will also decrease immediately (through your dentist).Unlike other tooth replacement options, dental implants help maintain bone mass and prevent bone loss since they are embedded into the bone.
Dental implants match your natural teeth
Dental implants come in many different shapes, sizes, textures, and materials.In accordance with the needs of your mouth, your dentist will design a dental implant that is customized for you.Artificial teeth are made so they closely match your natural teeth.The only people who will know you have dental implants are you and your dentist!
Dental implants restore bite force
When you have dentures placed, your dentist will usually give you a laundry list of aftercare tips, including avoiding biting down on hard foods to ensure balance and stability.This can also apply to dental implants.By using these, you can chew with more or less the same amount of force that you would use with your natural teeth.
Dental implants preserve your face structure
The teeth support the structure of your face.As your teeth fall out, your cheek muscles begin to sag and your face becomes sunken or "old-looking".As dental implants look, feel, and function like natural teeth, they contribute to preserving the youthful appearance of your face.
How we make implant crown?
Digital Intraoral Scanner
We can capture a 3D image of your teeth using a digital intraoral scanner while you relax and watch them emerge on the screen. Your teeth can then be recreated using intelligent software that combines technology with bio-engineering.
Tailored Dental Crown
Abutment and crown type and shape will determine the success and longevity of your treatment and the aesthetics and functional results you wish to achieve.
