Pediatric dentistry

Dental implants are a complex process, but not painful. The intervention is performed under local anesthesia, so the area is numb and you only notice more than a slight pressure.

Chewing with dental implants is just as effective as with your natural teeth. An implant allows you to chew and grind food just as well as the rest of your teeth. They don't move.

To solve the problem of missing teeth, there are different options as an alternative to dental implants: Bridge: it is a type of fixed prosthesis that rests on the natural teeth adjacent to the missing piece. Removable prostheses: this type of prosthesis, known colloquially as false teeth, is removable and, although it is a cheaper treatment, it is of lower quality than implants.

The postoperative period of dental implants is quite simple, although the recommendations of our dentists must be followed to the letter. First of all, you should avoid eating with the operated area at least during the first days after the operation. In addition, the first hours will have to apply local cold to reduce inflammation. Finally, it is recommended to avoid tobacco, alcohol and very strong foods such as spicy or acidic foods that can irritate the area where the dental implant has been placed.
