Dental Implant Placement

Smile Centrum places dental implants across six brand tiers, from Neobiotech KLASIC at 17,900 Kč to the premium Swiss Straumann system at 25,900 Kč per implant, letting patients balance budget against brand pedigree. Planning uses in-house CBCT 3D imaging, and surgical guides are available for precise placement. After osseointegration (typically 2–6 months), the implant is restored with an E-max or zirconia crown made in the network's own dental laboratory (from 12,900 Kč). Sedation options — nitrous oxide, tablet sedation, analgosedation or general anaesthesia — are available for anxious patients, and PRF autologous augmentation is offered where bone or soft tissue needs support.

A dental implant is a titanium root-form fixture placed into the jawbone to replace a missing tooth, which then carries a crown, bridge or stabilises a denture. Implants prevent the bone loss that follows extraction and do not require grinding down neighbouring healthy teeth, making them the standard of care for single-tooth replacement. **Implant brands at Smile Centrum (placement price per implant, 2026 list):** - Neobiotech KLASIC — 17,900 Kč (value tier, Korean system) - Osstem STANDARD — 18,900 Kč (one of the world's highest-volume implant makers) - Neodent OPTIMAL — 19,900 Kč (Straumann Group's Brazilian brand) - Ankylos PREMIUM — 22,900 Kč (Dentsply Sirona, long-documented German system) - Thommen PREMIUM — 22,900 Kč (Swiss precision system) - Straumann EXCLUSIVE — 25,900 Kč (the most-researched implant brand globally) **Treatment pathway:** implant consultation (1,150 Kč) with CBCT 3D scan to map bone volume and nerve positions → digital planning, optionally with a printed surgical guide (1,900–4,900 Kč) → placement surgery under local anaesthesia (sedation or GA available) → healing/osseointegration of roughly 2–6 months → abutment and crown impression → final crown fitted (E-max Press or full-zirconia 12,900 Kč; faceted zirconia 16,900 Kč). Where bone or soft tissue is thin, PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) autologous augmentation prepared from the patient's own blood is offered from 1,890 Kč. **Why Prague pricing matters:** a completed Straumann implant + crown at Smile Centrum totals roughly 38,800 Kč (~€1,550) — commonly half or less of Western European and UK pricing for the identical brand system, with the crown produced in the network's own laboratory. **Aftercare:** implants need the same hygiene discipline as natural teeth; peri-implant cleaning at regular hygiene visits protects the investment. Smokers and uncontrolled diabetics have elevated failure risk and are counselled individually.
