Many people delay certain dental treatments out of fear. Or because they think that the postoperative period will be too complicated for them.
For this reason, there are patients who ask about dental implants without surgery.
However, this is a concept widely used in misleading advertising campaigns that seek to attract new patients.
But you should not worry, because nowadays, and thanks to the enormous advances in technique and equipment, it is possible to insert an implant through much less invasive methods.
With them, the postoperative period is shorter and less traumatic, obtaining optimal long-term results.
Why don’t dental implants without surgery exists?
Before we focus on detailing how it is possible to recover missing teeth through more innovative techniques, let’s clarify why placing dental implants without surgery is impossible.
Although the word “surgery” seems to have negative connotations; the truth is that it encompasses any operation and, therefore, any intervention in which medical instruments are used.
It is true that within dentistry, as in any other field of medicine, there are more or less invasive surgeries.
Therefore, whether by the traditional method or through more modern techniques. Implants are inserted through a surgical operation.
Although we speak of dental implants without surgery, any intervention of this kind requires a surgical operation. However, there are less invasive techniques
Minimally invasive surgeries
When we talk about dental implants without surgery, we are referring to inserting them through a less invasive technique with numerous benefits for the patient.
Among others, it allows a faster recovery, reduces the time of the operation and does not require stitches.
Guided surgery
One of the least invasive implant placement techniques is computer-guided surgery.
Thanks to it, the implantologist is able to increase precision and efficiency before and during the operation.
Guided surgery allows the surgeon to place the implants in exactly the right place, without the need for stitches. But how is this possible?
Before implanting the screw, the specialist must make sure that the patient’s mouth is in good oral health.
To do this, he uses a 3D dental CT scan to perform a color scan of the oral cavity, obtaining a reliable virtual sample.

GUIDED SURGERY OF DENTAL IMPLANTS
Likewise, thanks to this computer program, custom-made splints are made. This to be placed on the day of the intervention.
The sleeve is going to serve as a guide for the implantologist to know, with millimetric precision, the exact point where the implant should be inserted.
This avoids affecting sensitive areas and opening the gum. In addition to reducing surgery time by up to 70%, since the work is much easier.
Can I have the implant and crown in one day?
With traditional implant surgery, the time between implant and crown is much longer than if we resort to innovative techniques, such as immediate loading.
The main advantage is that it allows the placement of the implant and the dental cap or prosthesis on the same day of the operation.
Until the osseointegration process is completed, the patient will wear a temporary crown that allows chewing naturally and provides esthetics to the smile.
Thus, it is possible to lead a normal life from the first day.
However, it is up to the specialist to determine whether the patient is suitable for immediate loading.
This is due to the fact that a series of requirements must be met:
- Have a correct occlusion
- Have a sufficient amount of dental bone
- Not suffer from any periodontal disease (gingivitis and periodontitis).
- Maintain an exhaustive hygiene routine at home.
- Not having bruxism
Beware of misleading advertising “Dental implants without surgery”
Now that you know what you can really expect under the claim of non-surgical dental implants, we want to warn you about another type of misleading advertising.
Specifically, we are referring to the prices that work as a hook because they refer to concepts broken down for the entire treatment.
It is logical to think that the screw, the crown, the revisions and everything involved in an implant surgery involves a price.
For this reason, many clinics take advantage of patients’ lack of knowledge to advertise implants for 200 or 300 dollars. When in reality this is the cost of the screw inserted in the dental bone.
Solve your doubts
When you ask for an estimate, do not leave any questions unanswered to avoid surprises in the future.
It is essential to add up and take into account all the concepts, which is why the price of dental implants starts at approximately 1,500 dollars.
Therefore, so that you do not “bite” before these figures hook and hook. For you is very important that you ask for a budget where all the necessary concepts are detailed to ensure the success of the surgery.
In this way, you will not have any unpleasant surprises. If you are informed that the price continues to increase as the treatment progresses.
