When are you eligible for implantology?
In the event of the absence of one or more teeth
Are you missing one or more teeth and do you notice that eating or laughing has become less effortless? Then implantology may be a suitable solution. With implants, a solid foundation is placed in the jaw, allowing you to function comfortably again and restoring your smile.
With loose or uncomfortable dentures
Do you suffer from dentures that shift or do not stay in place properly? Implants can provide extra stability, making your dentures feel stable again. This offers not only more comfort but also more confidence in daily life.
Even when a tooth can no longer be saved, an implant offers a durable and natural replacement. Moreover, unlike temporary solutions, implantology helps preserve the jawbone and prevent further problems.
Do you have multiple missing teeth, or are you looking for a permanent solution for your teeth? We would be happy to discuss the possibilities with you. During a personal consultation, we will assess your situation and provide honest advice on the best treatment.

How does an implant treatment proceed step by step?
At Oude Rijn Tandartsen in Leiden, we always start with a comprehensive intake and examination of your teeth. During this appointment, we assess your situation, take X-rays or a 3D scan if necessary, and discuss which solution suits you best.
Next, we place the implant in the jawbone under local anesthesia. This is a precise and generally comfortable procedure. After placement, the implant is given time to fuse with the jawbone, ensuring a solid and durable foundation.
The healing phase and the placement of the crown
After the healing period, the implant is fitted with a crown, bridge, or prosthesis that perfectly matches your teeth. Attention is paid to both functionality and a natural appearance.
Guidance and aftercare
After the treatment, we guide you with clear instructions and check-ups so that the implant can heal optimally and last a long time. You will receive personal advice on maintenance and oral care.

Laugh and eat carefree again with fixed dentures
With implantology at Oude Rijn Tandartsen in Leiden, you choose a durable solution that looks natural and feels comfortable. An implant is firmly placed in the jaw and forms the basis for a crown, bridge or a prosthesis that is hardly distinguishable from real teeth.
Whether it concerns a single missing tooth or a larger part of your dentition, every treatment is tailored to your situation and wishes. This creates a result that suits your face and teeth.
You can eat freely again, speak clearly, and laugh without insecurity. Implants not only provide a beautiful result but also long-lasting comfort and security in daily life.
Frequently asked questions about implantology in Leiden
Are you considering an implant and do you want to know exactly what to expect? Below, we answer the most frequently asked questions about the treatment, recovery, and options at Oude Rijn Tandartsen in Leiden.
Does having an implant placed hurt?
The treatment is performed under local anesthesia, so you will feel no pain during the placement of the implant. After the procedure, you may experience mild post-operative pain or swelling, similar to a tooth extraction. This can usually be easily remedied with paracetamol and subsides within a few days. We will guide you through this and ensure that you go through the treatment as comfortably as possible.
Am I eligible for implantology?
In many cases, implantology is possible. However, it is important that your gums are healthy and that there is sufficient jawbone present to securely place the implant. During an initial consultation at our practice in Leiden, we carefully assess your situation and discuss which treatment is best suited for you. Even if there is less jawbone present, there are often additional options available.
How long is the recovery time after implant placement?
After the implant is placed, the jawbone needs time to fuse around it. This process takes an average of a few weeks to a few months. During this period, we provide proper guidance and check-ups. As soon as the implant has fully integrated, we place the definitive crown, bridge, or prosthesis.
How much does an implant cost?
The cost of an implant varies by situation and depends on factors such as the number of implants and the type of treatment. Because every treatment is custom-made, we will draw up a personal treatment plan with a clear cost estimate for you after an initial consultation. This way, you know exactly what to expect beforehand.
Is an implant covered by insurance?
In some cases, implantology is (partially) reimbursed, for example with a full denture or through supplementary dental insurance. The exact reimbursement depends on your policy. We would be happy to advise you on this and, if necessary, can review with you what your insurance covers.
How long does an implant last?
With good oral care and regular check-ups, an implant can last for years, often even a lifetime. The crown or bridge placed on the implant typically has a lifespan of 10 to 15 years. Through good care and periodic check-ups, you significantly extend the lifespan of your treatment.
