A missing tooth is more than a cosmetic concern: it can make chewing harder, allow neighbouring teeth to drift and, over time, lead to loss of jawbone. Dental implants in Berlin offer an especially natural solution – they replace the tooth root and carry a fixed, lasting restoration. At our practice on Rosenthaler Platz, specialist oral surgeon Said Hawali has been planning and placing implants for more than 20 years.
What a dental implant is – and when it is the right choice
An implant is a small, highly biocompatible screw made of titanium or ceramic that is anchored in the jawbone in place of the natural root. The visible crown, a bridge or a full denture is later fixed on top. Because the implant fuses firmly with the bone, it creates fixed teeth that feel like your own when you speak and chew.
An implant is particularly worth considering when:
- a single tooth is missing and healthy neighbouring teeth should not be ground down for a bridge,
- several teeth need to be replaced,
- an edentulous (toothless) jaw needs to regain a stable, secure hold.
Whether an implant suits your situation is something we clarify in a thorough consultation. You will find an overview of everything we offer on our implantology page.
The treatment journey – step by step
As an experienced implantologist in Berlin, we place great value on careful, predictable planning. The path to your new tooth follows clear stages:
- Consultation and diagnostics. We listen, examine and discuss your goals.
- 3D planning with CBCT. Using three-dimensional imaging (DVT/CBCT) we plan the position and angle of every implant to the millimetre – gently protecting nerves and neighbouring structures.
- Placing the implant. The procedure is minimally invasive and usually carried out under local anaesthetic, with sedation available on request.
- Healing (osseointegration). Over the following weeks the implant fuses firmly with the bone.
- Final restoration. Finally, we fit the precisely made crown, bridge or denture.
Gentle and as painless as possible
Many patients feel anxious before treatment. We take that seriously. Thanks to digital DVT planning the procedure itself is often surprisingly small and well predictable. We work in a deliberately gentle way and, if you wish, accompany the treatment with sedation so that you stay relaxed throughout.
One tooth, several teeth or the whole jaw
If just a single tooth is missing, an implant closes the gap without burdening the neighbouring teeth – you can read more under when a tooth is missing. Where several teeth are missing, implants support a bridge. Even a completely toothless jaw can be given a firm, secure restoration with just a few implants.
Why bone grafting is sometimes needed
An implant needs enough bone to hold securely. If too little bone remains after prolonged tooth loss, we first create a stable foundation with a bone graft. Our 3D diagnostics reliably show whether this is necessary.
What influences the cost
There are no flat-rate prices, because every situation is different. The main factors are the number of implants, any bone grafting that may be required and the chosen material of implant and crown. During the consultation you receive a transparent cost plan tailored to your situation.
Care and aftercare
An implant can last for many years – provided it is well looked after. Careful daily oral hygiene and regular check-ups are the best protection against inflammation. We show you exactly what matters.
