Dental Implants in Chavannes-près-Renens: Complete Procedure Guide

Dental implant placement represents a modern and durable solution to replace a missing tooth. In our clinic in Chavannes-près-Renens, we accompany our patients from the West Lausanne area through each step of this transformative procedure.

🦷

What is a Dental Implant?

A dental implant is an artificial titanium root that replaces the natural root of a lost tooth. This permanent solution offers stability and functionality comparable to those of a natural tooth. For residents of Chavannes-près-Renens and the Lausanne region, this option represents a lasting investment in their oral health.

Dental Implant Placement Steps

📋

1. Initial Consultation and Planning

Your journey to a new smile begins with a comprehensive consultation in our office in Chavannes-près-Renens. During this first visit, our specialized implant surgery team evaluates your unique dental situation.

What happens during the consultation:

  • Complete clinical examination of your mouth
  • Panoramic X-rays and 3D scanner
  • Discussion of your medical history
  • Evaluation of your jaw bone density
  • Establishment of a personalized treatment plan
  • Detailed presentation of dental implant prices in Switzerland

This crucial step allows us to determine if you are a good candidate for dental implants and identify any necessary preparatory treatment.

2. Preparation and Preliminary Treatments

Before dental implant placement in West Lausanne, some patients require preparatory interventions to optimize the success of the procedure.

Possible treatments:

  • Bone graft: If your jaw lacks bone density, a graft may be necessary to create a solid foundation for the implant
  • Tooth extraction: If the damaged tooth is still present, it must be extracted before implant placement
  • Gum treatment: Any periodontal disease must be treated to ensure a healthy environment

These preparatory steps, performed in our Chavannes clinic, ensure the best conditions for the success of your implant.

3. Implant Surgery: The Big Day

Dental implant placement is a precise surgical procedure performed under local anesthesia. Our experienced implant surgery team in Chavannes uses the most advanced techniques for your comfort and safety.

Procedure steps:

  • Local anesthesia: Application of an anesthetic to eliminate any pain sensation
  • Gingival incision: Careful opening of the gum to access the bone
  • Site preparation: Precise drilling in the jaw bone according to pre-established measurements
  • Implant insertion: Delicate placement of the titanium implant in the prepared socket
  • Closure: Suture of the gum around or over the implant

The procedure generally lasts between 30 minutes and 2 hours, depending on the number of implants placed and the complexity of the case.

4. Osseointegration Phase: Healing

After your dental implant placement in our West Lausanne office, a crucial phase called osseointegration begins. During this period, your jaw bone naturally fuses with the titanium implant.

Osseointegration duration:

  • Lower jaw: 3 to 4 months on average
  • Upper jaw: 4 to 6 months on average

During this period:

  • Follow post-operative instructions scrupulously
  • Maintain excellent oral hygiene
  • Avoid chewing on the implant site
  • Attend all your follow-up appointments in Chavannes-près-Renens

A temporary prosthesis may be provided for aesthetic reasons, particularly for visible teeth.

🔧

5. Healing Abutment Placement

Once osseointegration is complete, a second minor intervention is needed to prepare the gum to receive the final crown.

This step includes:

  • Reopening the gum under local anesthesia
  • Removal of the implant protection cap
  • Fixing a healing abutment
  • Shaping the gum around the abutment

This procedure, performed in our Chavannes clinic, is generally quick and minimally invasive.

6. Impression and Crown Fabrication

After complete gum healing (about 2 weeks), we proceed with impression taking to create your custom crown.

The process includes:

  • Digital or traditional impression of your mouth
  • Selection of shade matching your natural teeth
  • Collaboration with our Swiss dental laboratory for fabrication
  • Fitting and adjustments if necessary

The Swiss quality of our crowns guarantees optimal aesthetic and functional results.

7. Final Crown Placement

The final step of your dental implant journey in Lausanne is realized with the placement of your permanent crown.

The final procedure:

  • Removal of the healing abutment
  • Installation of the final abutment
  • Crown fixation by screwing or cementing
  • Occlusion verification and final adjustments
  • Instructions for long-term maintenance

You leave our Chavannes-près-Renens office with a complete and functional smile!
