What Is Dental Implant Placement? Why Choose Implants for Tooth Loss?

Dental Implant placement (implant surgery) is currently the most advanced and optimal method for restoring missing teeth. This technique utilizes an artificial tooth root made of biocompatible Titanium, which is surgically placed into the jawbone to serve as a permanent root supporting the dental crown above.

At Thuan Kieu Dental Clinic, dental implant solutions restore both natural chewing function and aesthetics while maximally preventing jawbone resorption.

Key Advantages of Dental Implants

  • Restores Chewing Ability Like Natural Teeth: Implant posts feature high strength and thermal resistance, allowing you to comfortably enjoy your favorite foods without worrying about slippage.

  • Prevents Jawbone Resorption Complications: Having an artificial root stimulates bone growth, helping you avoid sunken cheeks, premature aging, or shifting adjacent teeth.

  • Preserves Adjacent Teeth: Unlike traditional dental bridges, implants do not require shaving down neighboring healthy teeth.

  • Long-lasting Lifespan: Dental implants can last for decades—or even a lifetime—with proper care.

Medical-Standard Implant Procedure at Thuan Kieu Dental Clinic

The entire implant placement process at Thuan Kieu Dental Clinic is conducted under strict sterile conditions, utilizing modern diagnostic imaging to ensure a gentle, safe, and precise treatment:

  1. Comprehensive Examination & 3D CT Cone Beam Imaging: The dentist surveys the jawbone structure, evaluates overall oral health, and formulates a detailed treatment plan.

  2. Implant Surgery: Gentle local anesthesia is administered, and the implant post is positioned into the missing tooth site (taking only 15–30 minutes per implant).

  3. Temporary Tooth Placement: Impressions are taken to craft a temporary tooth, ensuring basic aesthetics and communication while awaiting bone integration.

  4. Permanent Crown Impression: After 3–6 months, once the implant post has firmly fused with the jawbone, the dentist takes impressions for a custom porcelain crown tailored to your bite.

  5. Final Crown Placement: The dentist tests the crown, verifies aesthetics and bite alignment, and permanently attaches the porcelain crown onto the implant post.

Cost of Dental Implants at Thuan Kieu Dental Clinic

Treatment costs depend on the choice of implant brand, Abutment connector, and porcelain crown type.

  • Price Range: From 15,000,000 VND to 40,000,000+ VND per tooth.

  • Financial Support Policy: To ease the financial burden, Thuan Kieu Dental Clinic offers flexible installment options. Payment is split into 2 main stages:

    • Stage 1: Pay 70% of the total fee on the day of implant surgery.

    • Stage 2: Pay the remaining 30% after 3–6 months upon attaching the final porcelain crown.

Important Post-Implant Care Tips

To ensure fast healing and successful osseointegration:

  • Strictly follow the dentist's medication and oral hygiene instructions.

  • Absolutely avoid smoking, and limit alcohol and stimulants.

  • Avoid extremely hard, chewy, or hot/cold foods for the first few days after surgery.

  • Attend scheduled follow-up visits to monitor implant integration progress.
