What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are a state-of-the-art, long-term solution for replacing missing teeth. These titanium posts are surgically inserted into the jawbone, where they serve as artificial tooth roots. Once integrated with the bone, they provide a stable foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures.
At iSmile Guatemala, we specialize in advanced implant dentistry, combining technology and precision to ensure lasting results and natural aesthetics.

How the Implant Procedure Works
1. Initial Consultation
Our implantology experts will evaluate your oral health, bone density, and overall suitability for dental implants. This may include 3D imaging and digital scans for optimal precision.

2. Implant Placement Surgery
The implant is surgically inserted into the jawbone under local anesthesia. Healing and osseointegration (bone fusion) typically take 2–3 months.
3. Restoration Phase
Once healed, a custom-made crown or prosthesis is attached, completing the restoration and returning full chewing functionality.
Key Benefits of Dental Implants
- Durability and Stability: With proper care, implants can last decades.
- Natural Appearance: Implants blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
- Bone Preservation: They stimulate the jawbone and prevent bone loss.
- Improved Confidence: Restore your smile, speech, and self-esteem.
