The Evolution of Dental Implant Treatment
The field of dental implantology has evolved significantly since its early days, with new techniques and materials constantly being developed. Pioneering work has greatly contributed to the advancements in treatment in this field, establishing principles and techniques that are still in use today.
The Implant Institute
The foundation of the Implant Institute in the early 1980s aimed to advance the knowledge and skill sets of dental professionals worldwide. The Institute has since become one of the premier implant training facilities, shaping the future of implant treatment and producing skilled implantologists who carry on the legacy of innovation.
Benefits
At Aktif International Hospital, we pride of ourselves on providing this implant treatment that improves the quality of life for our patients.
Improved Function and Aesthetics
The treatment provides superior function and aesthetics compared to other tooth replacement options.
Bone Preservation and Oral Health
Unlike other tooth replacement options, dental implants help preserve the jawbone and prevent further bone loss. The implants stimulate the bone, promoting growth and preventing resorption. This not only maintains the patient’s facial structure but also supports overall oral health.

Dental Implant Techniques at Aktif International Hospital
Aktif International Hospital offers a range of dental implant techniques, catering to the individual needs of each patient. Our experienced implantologists work closely with patients to develop a personalized treatment plan.
Single-Tooth Implants
Single-tooth implants are ideal for patients who have lost just one tooth. A single implant is placed in the jawbone, and a custom-made crown is attached to the implant, providing a natural and functional tooth replacement.
Multiple-Tooth Implants
For patients missing multiple teeth, implant-supported bridges or partial dentures can be an effective solution. Multiple implants are placed in the jawbone, and a custom-made dental prosthesis is attached, providing a stable and functional tooth replacement.
Full-Arch Implants
Full-arch implants, also known as implant-supported dentures or All-on-4, are an excellent option for patients missing an entire arch of teeth. A small number of implants are strategically placed in the jawbone, providing support for a custom-made denture. This solution offers improved function, comfort, and aesthetics compared to traditional dentures.
| Technique | Ideal for | Procedure |
| Single-Tooth Implants | Patients missing one tooth | One implant is placed in the jawbone, followed by a custom-made crown |
| Multiple-Tooth Implants | Patients missing multiple teeth | Multiple implants are placed in the jawbone, followed by a custom-made dental prosthesis |
| Full-Arch Implants | Patients missing an entire arch of teeth | A few implants are strategically placed in the jawbone, followed by a custom-made denture |
