Implant
English Implant
The first human patient to have dental implants placed.
Implant
Dental implants were developed by Dr. Branemark. In 1952, he discovered by
accident that titanium could be structurally integrated into living bone tissue,
and went on his study for 13 years to put this discovery to practical use.
After the safety of implants was proved, Dr. Branemark finally placed his first
dental implant into a human patient. It functioned normally for as long as 40
years until the patient passed away.
How long do dental implants last?
Dental implants can last almost as long as natural teeth if the treatment
is correctly done. Clinical data shows 90% of upper jaw implants and 92.3% of
lower jaw ones remain more than 20 years, but these rates differ depending on
dentist's skill. As for us, we've achieved 98% remaining rate over the last 6
years.
Besides, it's been proved that the remaining rate is much higher if implants function
normally for the first 5 years.
We assure our implants can last a lifetime by your diligent maintenance.
