Dental implants in Vienna
If you have lost a tooth or are missing teeth, dental implants offer a number of benefits that can improve your oral health, comfort, and self-esteem. At our Vienna practice, we’d be happy to provide you with comprehensive advice on their use.
What are dental implants?
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots that are placed in the jawbone to replace lost or missing teeth. They provide a stable foundation for replacing one or more teeth, which are then attached to the implant. The implant is placed in the jawbone, where it fuses with the bone and forms a solid base for the dental prosthesis. Typically, a certain healing period is allowed to elapse before an abutment is attached to the implant, which serves as the foundation for the dental prosthesis.
At our practice, we always strive to offer you innovative, safe, durable, and comfortable solutions. That is why we use only titanium implants for you—a biocompatible material that is readily accepted by the body and is extremely durable.
For patients who are dissatisfied with the shape or color of their existing teeth, veneers offer an excellent way to enhance the aesthetics of their smile.

The treatment is carried out in several steps. First, we examine your mouth and take digitally assisted 3D images to determine the best location for the implant. The implant is then placed into the jawbone, where it fuses with the bone. After the healing phase, an abutment is placed on the implant, and the new tooth or bridge is attached to it.
Treatment methods
Dental implants are recommended to replace lost or missing teeth and restore both the function and natural appearance of your teeth. At our Vienna practice, we utilize a range of innovative implantology methods that improve the functionality of your teeth while giving you a new smile. Depending on your individual needs and preferences, the following implant options are available to you:
A single-tooth crown is an artificial tooth root that replaces a missing tooth and closes the gap in your dentition. At our practice, we rely on single-tooth implants to offer you an effective and highly popular solution for tooth loss. By placing the implants, we restore your ability to chew, speak, and smile. Once they have healed into the jawbone after placement—or immediately, if conditions are right—we attach the dental prosthesis to the implants. Single-tooth implants are extremely stable and last a very long time. With this method, we can replace lost teeth, whether due to an accident, tooth decay, or a failed root canal treatment. We know how important a complete and radiant smile, as well as teeth that function perfectly, are to your well-being, and we are happy to assist you in restoring your teeth.
When several adjacent teeth are missing, a dental bridge offers a proven way to permanently close the gap. At our practice, we use modern bridge techniques to provide you with an aesthetically pleasing and highly functional solution for gaps in your teeth. The bridge is secured to adjacent healthy teeth or—in a particularly gentle procedure—to implants, thereby replacing multiple teeth in a single step.
With the All-on-4 implant concept, we offer you an innovative, gentle, and safe method for dental implants and fixed dentures. The All-on-4 implant procedure is ideally suited for both the upper and lower jaws. In this procedure, the denture for the entire dental arch of one jaw is anchored to just 4 implants. The implants are optimally positioned at a precisely defined angle and calculated with exact precision using a 3D planner.
All-on-4 implant treatment can be completed in a very short time, meaning you can often leave our office with new fixed teeth after just two appointments. The All-on-4 concept stands out for its high-quality materials, excellent biocompatibility, and remarkable durability.
Similar to the All-on-4 implant concept, our All-on-6 dental implants offer you an innovative, safe, and effective solution for advanced tooth loss or severely damaged dentition. With this implant option, you have the opportunity to restore your missing teeth.
With this method, six implants are placed in the jaw to replace an entire row of teeth. Because only six implants are used, the All-on-6 method often eliminates the need for extensive bone grafts or bone augmentation procedures.
This is particularly beneficial for patients with limited bone volume in the jaw. After the healing phase, the dental prosthesis is permanently attached to the implants, providing a highly aesthetic and functional solution. The benefits include rapid rehabilitation, stability, and strength, as well as an aesthetically pleasing appearance.
With the CEREC implant method, we offer you an advanced, highly precise, and very well-tolerated solution in implant dentistry. CEREC stands for Ceramic Reconstruction and is a computer-aided fabrication process in which high-quality dental restorations are custom-made for you in our office without the need for impressions. Compared to traditional methods of fabricating dental implants, the CEREC process offers a highly time-efficient implant procedure—you’ll typically receive your new teeth on the very same day.
As part of the CEREC treatment process, we digitally scan your mouth using a special scanner that creates a highly precise 3D model of your teeth and jaw. This serves as the basis for the computer-aided design of your implants and helps us plan your restoration precisely and tailor it to your individual needs. After the digital planning phase, the implant design is transferred to a special milling unit, which precisely mills the desired restoration from a ceramic block. This usually happens very quickly, so you receive your custom-fit implants during the same appointment without long wait times.
With the CEREC implant restoration, you’ll save time and benefit from the precise fit, biocompatibility, and aesthetics of your implants.
Benefits of dental implants
Implants do not place stress on adjacent teeth, as is the case with bridges and partial dentures. As a result, they offer several advantages over conventional methods of tooth replacement: They are more comfortable and require no special care. In addition, they contribute significantly to improved oral health, self-confidence, and self-esteem, and are often more cost-effective in the long run. Thanks to our innovative implantation methods, the placement of dental implants is extremely precise and time-efficient.
Greater comfort
An implant is a convenient and comfortable type of dental restoration. They function and feel just like natural teeth and do not require any special care.
Unlike dentures, which can slip and shift, implants are firmly anchored in the jawbone and therefore offer significantly more comfort and security in your daily life.
Self-confidence
An implant can help improve the appearance of your teeth and your smile. If you are missing teeth, this can affect your ability to speak or eat. A firmly anchored dental prosthesis can restore these functions.
To further improve the appearance of your teeth, professional teeth whitening can help you achieve a bright, white smile.
How much do dental implants cost?
A dental implant is a personalized, custom-made solution to restore the functionality of your teeth and your unique smile. Depending on the number, type, and treatment method, as well as your needs and preferences, the cost may vary and cannot be stated as a flat rate.
In general, implants are considered purely private services and are therefore not covered by Austrian health insurance providers (ÖGK, SVS, BVAEB). If you have private health insurance, please check with your insurer in advance to find out what is covered.
We would be happy to provide you with a personalized dental restoration plan and a cost estimate at our office in 1010 Vienna following a consultation.
Proper care
Caring for implants is similar to caring for natural teeth. You should clean your implants twice a day with a toothbrush and dental floss. Regular checkups at the dentist and regular professional dental cleanings are essential, in addition to your at-home oral hygiene routine. To maintain and promote your oral health, you should pay special attention to eating a healthy diet and avoid smoking.
FAQ – frequently asked questions
Dental implants take 2–4 months to heal, depending on the individual’s bone structure. Under certain conditions, implants can also be loaded immediately.
Dental implants made of pure titanium are the most biocompatible and rarely cause complications.
Immediate implants speed up treatment, preserve bone tissue, reduce the number of treatment steps, and should only be performed by experienced practitioners.
Three-dimensional X-rays are used to ensure accurate implant planning. This allows implants to be placed with greater precision and in a less invasive manner.
Instead of estimating distances, they can be measured precisely. The radiation exposure from DVT scans is only 1–10% of that from a conventional CT scan.
A cost estimate depends on the patient’s individual medical condition. A specific treatment cost estimate can generally only be prepared after an examination at the office.
In many cases, the implant can be placed on the very day the tooth is extracted. If the medical conditions allow, we can fit the implant with a temporary plastic crown on the same day. The final restoration with the permanent dental prosthesis is then completed once the implant has fully healed.
Dental implants are a suitable alternative to removable dentures. They are used to close gaps caused by the loss of individual teeth or to restore chewing function following the loss of molars. When used to anchor a full denture, they improve stability and chewing function.
For edentulous jaws, dental implants are the optimal—albeit most expensive—solution for fixed dentures. Six to eight implants are placed for this purpose. After the healing phase, a fixed bridge is attached to these implants.
Implants replace missing teeth. They are placed in the jawbone at the site where the tooth was previously anchored and serve as an anchor for the dental prosthesis. In order to place an implant, there must be sufficient bone mass. If this is not the case, there are several options for building up the bone and preparing it for implant placement. Caution is advised for diabetics, smokers, patients with severe osteoporosis, and patients taking bisphosphonates.
