Dental implants in Andújar
Workup, surgery and prosthetics all done here, with no trips to the capital.
Dental implants without leaving Andújar
An implant is an artificial root that integrates into the bone and carries the crown. It replaces the lost tooth without cutting down its neighbours, and it keeps the bone in that area loaded instead of letting it shrink, which is what happens when a gap is left for years.
Three stages, one clinic
Implant treatment has a workup, a surgery and a prosthetic stage. In towns the size of Andújar each stage often means a separate journey. Here all three are resolved in the same surgery, with the CT and the intraoral scanner in the building.
"They told me I had no bone"
We hear that often, and it usually refers to a verdict given years ago. Regeneration and sinus lift techniques have moved on a good deal since. It is worth reviewing the case on a current scan before treating it as closed.
Reviews and long-term maintenance happen here too: the follow-up does not involve travelling.
-
Chewing function
You can bite and chew normally again, with no restrictions on your diet.
-
Natural appearance
The crown is designed around your shape, shade and proportions, in harmony with your face.
-
Stable and comfortable
Nothing moves or comes loose. Cared for like a natural tooth, with hygiene and check-ups.
At this clinic
The whole process, in one clinic
Implant treatment has three stages — workup, surgery, prosthetics — and in towns the size of Andújar each one frequently means a separate journey. Here all three happen at the same clinic, with the CT and the intraoral scanner in the surgery itself.
The workup establishes whether there is enough bone. Where there is not, it is rebuilt first: lack of bone stopped being a reason to rule an implant out a long time ago, even though there are still patients who were told otherwise years back.
Surgery is planned digitally and carried out with a custom guide. The follow-up is local too: reviews, adjusting the prosthesis and maintenance do not require leaving Andújar.
- Workup, surgery and prosthetics at the same clinic.
- Our own CT and intraoral scanners.
- Bone regeneration first where it is needed.

Types of dental implant
How the process works, step by step
-
Study and diagnosis
3D scan, intraoral scan and assessment of gum and bone. You leave the first visit with a diagnosis, not a generic quote.
-
Digital planning and guided surgery
We plan each implant position on the digital model and manufacture a custom surgical guide. Surgery is shorter and more precise.
-
Placement and temporary teeth
We place the implants and, where the case allows, an aesthetic temporary prosthesis the same day. You do not leave without teeth.
-
Final prosthesis and maintenance
Once the implant has integrated, we fit the definitive crown or bridge and set up a check-up plan.

Common questions
What patients usually ask us
01 How long before I can get back to normal after surgery?
In most cases people return to their usual routine within 24 to 48 hours. We recommend avoiding intense physical exercise for the first few days and keeping to a soft diet during the first week.
02 What care do dental implants need?
The same as a natural tooth: daily brushing, interdental cleaning and regular check-ups. An implant cannot decay, but the bone supporting it can be lost if hygiene slips, so professional maintenance is part of the treatment.
03 What is the difference between an implant and a bridge?
An implant replaces the root of the tooth and does not touch the neighbouring teeth. A conventional bridge requires grinding down the adjacent teeth to rest on them. That makes the implant the more conservative option when the neighbouring teeth are healthy.
04 Can I have implants if I currently wear a denture?
Yes, and it is one of the changes that most improves quality of life. Moving from a removable denture to fixed teeth on implants restores chewing strength, removes the need for adhesives and, by not covering the palate, brings back your sense of taste.
05 When will I see the final result?
Aesthetic, functional temporaries are fitted from the outset, so there is no period without teeth. The definitive work is fitted once the implant has integrated with the bone.
06 Am I too old for implants?
Age alone is not a contraindication. What matters is general health, bone quality and gum health. We routinely treat older patients.
07 What if I do not have enough bone?
Bone regeneration, sinus lift and zygomatic implant techniques make it possible to treat cases with severe bone loss. A diagnosis of "not enough bone" often means the case needs a specific technique, not that it has no solution.
08 How much does a dental implant cost?
It depends on the number of implants, the type of prosthesis and whether bone regeneration is needed first. We do not quote fixed prices without seeing the radiographic study: that would be a made-up figure. After the first assessment we provide a written quote detailing the full treatment.
