Placing dental implants falls under the specialised field of oral surgery, sometimes referred to as maxillofacial surgery. Today, placing dental implants is a common treatment that general dentists also perform, of course only after specific training and education. At TandCity, our dentists in Malmö work with implants every day.

When are dental implants needed?
A dental implant replaces one or more missing teeth. In other words, if you have lost teeth for any reason, they can be replaced with a dental implant so that aesthetics and function are restored in your mouth. Because dental implants are placed directly in the jawbone and do not depend on being anchored to other teeth, they can replace any teeth in either the lower or upper jaw. It is also possible to replace several missing teeth in a row with an implant bridge, or to receive a new set of fixed teeth in a completely toothless mouth. This way, you can avoid removable full and partial dentures.
How does the treatment work?
The treatment takes place in several stages. First, a procedure is performed in which the screw, the implant, is fixed into the jawbone where the cavity from the missing tooth is. After a few months, the implant has integrated into the jawbone, and a scan impression is taken of the implant in order to produce the ceramic dental crown. The dental technician designs and mills the crown or bridge, and the dentist then screws it onto the implant. The treatment is then complete, and the patient has a new, attractive tooth to chew with. Many people may react to the word implant surgery and associate it with something unpleasant and painful. The truth is that the patient does not feel anything at all, as they are completely numb. Since implant procedures are now part of standard dental treatment, they usually go relatively quickly and, in normal cases, are not associated with much post-operative discomfort.
Why are dental implants a good investment?
A dental implant is a safe, well-proven and permanent solution for replacing lost teeth. The alternatives are various types of removable dentures or fixed bridges, where other teeth must also be involved and ground down. Dental implants are a minimally invasive and more long-term solution for tooth loss. Another factor is that no cavities can form on the implant itself. Since healthy gums and jawbone are prerequisites for the implant, it is very important that the patient maintains good oral hygiene to avoid infections around the implant. Regular dental check-ups are also important.
How much do dental implants cost?
The price of dental implants depends on how many implants you need and whether other preparatory treatments are required, such as bone grafting or sinus adjustment. Through the high-cost protection offered by the Swedish Social Insurance Agency (Försäkringskassan), you can receive help with a large part of the treatment cost. For dental care costs over SEK 3,000, you are reimbursed for 50% of the cost, and over SEK 15,000 you receive 85% reimbursement. This reimbursement is based on Försäkringskassan’s reference price for the treatment. Ask us at TandCity for a cost estimate for your implant treatment and how you can receive reimbursement from Försäkringskassan—we have full control of the process.
Our main goal at TandCity is to offer dental care of the highest quality at good prices. Before treatment begins, you can always ask us for the price of dental implants in Malmö. When you get dental implants with us at TandCity, you can be sure that we provide the treatment at a fair price.
Just like a natural tooth
A dental implant feels and functions essentially like natural teeth. Implants provide the same sensation as a natural tooth when chewing; you could say that dental implants stimulate the jawbone like a real tooth. An implant is difficult to distinguish visually from “real” teeth and does not affect saliva production or speech.
