Surgery and restoration from one team

Dental implants — from initial diagnostics to long-term aftercare

At ZAK, an implant is never treated as an isolated procedure. Bone, gums, bite, appearance, the final restoration and long-term maintenance are planned as one connected treatment pathway.

Our treatment approach

Always planned with 3D CBCT diagnostics, carried out by an experienced surgical team and completed prosthetically with our in-house CAD/CAM laboratory.

We explain the starting situation, options, limitations and alternatives so that you can make an informed decision. The exact process always depends on your individual clinical findings.

01

Diagnostics before surgery

We always perform implant treatment on the basis of a three-dimensional CBCT scan. It shows the available bone, anatomical structures and potential risks spatially. Together with an intraoral scan, photographs, a clinical examination and the planned restoration, this creates a reliable plan — not only for the implant itself, but also for later function and appearance.

  • Cone beam computed tomography with modern ultra-low-dose protocols
  • Intraoral scanning instead of a conventional impression whenever medically appropriate
  • Restoration-driven backward planning from the desired final result
  • Clear explanation of findings, alternatives and risks
02

Surgery with a structured system

Dr. med. stom. Andreea Krauss and Prof. Dr. Ingo Voges jointly plan and support implant and oral-surgical procedures. On dedicated surgery days, the practice, assisting team, sterile workflows and material logistics are specifically organised for surgical care.

  • Implant placement and implant exposure
  • Bone augmentation and sinus lift procedures
  • Piezosurgery and regenerative techniques
  • PRF prepared from the patient’s own blood as a possible adjunct
  • Nitrous oxide, sedation or general anaesthesia following individual planning
03

Restoration and responsibility afterwards

Implant placement is only one part of the result. The restoration, function, cleanability and aftercare are considered from the beginning. Because the laboratory is inside the practice, design, try-in and clinical control can be coordinated directly. Reviews and individually planned preventive care remain part of our concept even after the restoration has been completed.

Every part remains connected

Diagnostics, treatment, laboratory work and aftercare stay together.

Complex dentistry becomes easier to understand when all involved areas work together directly. Findings, images, scans and plans are available wherever they are needed.

Questions about Dental implants

Well informed before your personal consultation.

Does ZAK always use CBCT for implant planning?+

Yes. We do not place implants without three-dimensional CBCT diagnostics because we consider purely two-dimensional planning too risky for this procedure.

Is bone augmentation always necessary?+

No. This depends on the available bone, implant position and the planned restoration. CBCT assessment shows whether augmentation is required and which alternative may be appropriate.

Can treatment be performed under general anaesthesia?+

Depending on the extent of treatment, medical history and personal situation, local anaesthesia, nitrous oxide, sedation or general anaesthesia may be possible. General anaesthesia is planned with an experienced anaesthesia team.
