Do you need an implant but can't get one due to the high prices? Learn how to get a free implant through the SUS
Having healthy, well-cared-for teeth is essential for a good quality of life.
In addition to being extremely important for health, teeth have a big impact on self-esteem.
People sometimes spend their entire lives hiding their smile, out of shame.
This interferes with basic activities that are part of every human being's life.
How to get a boyfriend, or make friends, for example.
Self-confidence is very important to become confident and happy people.
However, we know that getting an implant is not accessible to everyone.
Because the prices are really very high.
If this is your case, continue reading and learn how to get a free implant through the SUS.
What is implantology?
Before I explain how to get the benefit, do you already know what an implant is?
An implant is a solution offered to a person who has suffered bone loss.
This bone loss, however, can cause a person to lose their entire tooth.
In other words, the implant is nothing more than a type of screw made of titanium.
It serves to act as the root of the tooth that was lost. The screw is inserted into the patient's jaw bones.
It is considered a simple surgery, but it requires a period of rest for healing to be good.
And most importantly, so that this new tooth is naturally integrated with the others.
First of all, did you know that there are not just single-tooth implants?
There are also multiple, fixed and removable prostheses.
Therefore, it is important that you make a specific and individualized consultation.
Each patient has different needs and will require different planning.
Ultimately, prosthetics really do change the lives of those who need them.
In addition to the aesthetic factor, the patient's functional issue is also renewed.
In other words, the patient regains the ability to chew much more easily than with dentures.
