The Role of Dental Implants in Modern Dentistry
When a natural tooth is lost, the surrounding bone begins to thin out over time. This process is known as bone resorption. Left unaddressed, it can lead to a sunken facial appearance, loss of support for adjacent teeth, and difficulty with speech and chewing.
A dental implant replaces the root of a missing tooth. It passes chewing forces to the jawbone and can help slow the bone loss that follows tooth loss. The implant integrates with the jawbone and becomes a secure base for a crown or a bridge. You can read more about dental implants in Abu Dhabi on the service page.
At TRUE SMILE, we use biocompatible titanium systems that fuse reliably with bone and support long-term results both functionally and aesthetically.
Implant Services We Provide
We offer several treatment options, designed for various degrees of tooth loss and bone condition:
- Conventional Implants
The gold standard when bone density is sufficient. After detailed planning, a titanium post is placed in the bone and allowed to heal before the crown is attached. - Same-Day Extraction and Implantation
In suitable cases, we can remove a damaged or failing tooth and place an implant during the same visit. This approach reduces the number of surgeries and helps preserve bone but usually, the implant is left to heal before the final crown is attached. - Immediate Temporisation
When appropriate, it's possible to give you a temporary tooth right after the implant is placed. This is called "immediate loading." It means that instead of waiting months with a gap or a healing cap, you leave the clinic with a natural-looking temporary crown already in place. - Full-Jaw Restorations
Through techniques like All-on-4, we restore a complete upper or lower arch of teeth using just a few well-positioned implants. This fixed alternative to removable dentures offers enhanced bite strength and stability. - Sinus Lifting Procedures
If the bone in the back upper jaw is too thin for implants, we perform a sinus lift to gently elevate the sinus lining and insert bone grafting material.
Who We Help
Implant dentistry is appropriate for a wide range of adult patients. We care for individuals with:
- Single-tooth loss
- Multiple missing teeth
- Long-standing edentulism (total tooth loss)
- Failed bridges or repeated restorative failures
- Bone loss or previously rejected for implants
Our approach is inclusive and adaptable. If you have bone loss, the doctor checks the bone on a CBCT scan and explains which options suit you. And for expats living in Abu Dhabi, we offer clear communication, international-level care, and continuity throughout treatment.
Dental Implants with Bone Loss
Bone loss does not by itself mean that you cannot have a dental implant. The doctor decides whether an implant is possible, and which method suits you, after an examination and a CBCT scan. Bone grafting may be needed first, or the doctor may recommend another treatment if an implant is unsuitable.
Why the jawbone shrinks
The jawbone often shrinks after a tooth is removed. The section "The Role of Dental Implants in Modern Dentistry" above explains this process. Bone can also be lost because of gum disease, which dentists call periodontitis. Bone loss can continue while you wear a removable denture for many years. If your gums are inflamed, the doctor usually treats them before implant surgery. You can read about gum treatment at True Smile.
How the doctor checks the bone
The doctor checks the bone with a CBCT scan. This is a 3D X-ray of the jaw. It shows the height and width of the bone and the position of nearby structures, such as nerves and sinuses. You can read how a CBCT scan is done in our blog.
Treatment options when there is not enough bone
The doctor chooses the option after the scan. The main options are:
- Bone grafting.
The doctor adds bone material where the bone is too thin or too low. The aim is to give the implant enough support. You can read more about bone grafting before implants. - Sinus lift.
This option is used when there is not enough bone in the back of the upper jaw. The doctor gently lifts the sinus lining and places bone material under it. Read more about the sinus lift. - Implants without bone grafting.
Sometimes the CBCT scan shows that there is enough bone in the right place, even if bone loss was suspected. In this case the doctor can plan implants without bone grafting. - Full-arch treatment.
This option is for patients who have no teeth or very few teeth left in a jaw. The doctor checks whether the remaining bone can support several implants for a fixed set of teeth. Read more about full-arch treatment on implants.
Treatment time and cost
If you need bone grafting, treatment usually takes longer, because the bone needs time to heal. The doctor may suggest two-stage implant treatment, in which the implant heals beneath the gum before it is uncovered. Bone grafting is a separate item in the price list. You can check the bone grafting cost on the service page. The doctor gives you a full treatment plan and its price after the consultation and the scan.
If you were told implants are not possible
If another clinic told you that you cannot have implants, you can come to us for a second opinion. You can bring your X-rays, scans and treatment plan to the consultation. A second opinion can also help if an old bridge or another restoration has failed and you want to replace it.
From Assessment to Results: What to Expect
Every implant journey begins with a structured evaluation:
- Comprehensive medical and dental history
- 3D bone imaging using CBCT scans
- Digital impressions to design your future smile
- Detailed discussion of goals, scheduling, and fees
We map every detail before treatment begins, ensuring that you're fully informed, medically cleared, and comfortable with the proposed plan.
The Deeper Impact of Implant Treatment
Our patients often tell us that their implants changed more than their bite. They smile more freely, eat without worry, and feel more like themselves again.
Whether we're restoring a front tooth that must blend in seamlessly or back molars that endure daily chewing force, we design every restoration to feel as good as it looks.
Why Patients Choose TRUE SMILE
At TRUE SMILE, our approach is grounded in both expertise and empathy. Every case is guided by advanced diagnostics and handled in our fully equipped surgical suite, right here on Al Reem Island. You'll see familiar faces at each visit, receive care in your preferred language, and feel supported through every stage from first scan to final crown.
Whether you're replacing one tooth or rebuilding your whole smile, our goal is the same: to make sure your new teeth feel natural, function beautifully, and help you feel like yourself again.
Your Step-by-Step Implant Journey
- Consultation: We begin with diagnostics, imaging, and planning
- Implant Placement: Performed under local anaesthetic for comfort and safety
- Healing Period: Allowing time for integration (typically 2–3 months)
- Final Restoration: A crown, bridge, or full-arch prosthesis is secured in place
- Follow-Up Care: Ongoing checkups and hygiene visits to ensure success
The doctor will discuss suitable temporary options for the healing period with you.
Looking After Your New Smile
Once your implants are in place, regular care helps maintain your oral health. This includes:

We answer frequently asked questions
Dental implants are a long-term treatment. At True Smile, the implant is covered by a 10-year warranty, provided you care for it and attend regular dental hygienist visits. Well-maintained implants can stay in service for up to around 25 years. This is observed service life, not a warranty commitment. The crown or bridge on top of the implant may need replacing over time because of wear.
The implant is placed under local anaesthesia, which numbs the area during the procedure. Soreness, swelling or bruising can occur after surgery, and the amount varies with the procedure. The doctor explains how to ease discomfort at home and what to do during recovery. If you feel anxious, you can tell the team in advance, and they will discuss ways to help you feel calmer.
Implant treatment is often possible when diabetes is well controlled, after the doctor assesses your individual risks. The doctor first assesses your health and the medicines you take. If needed, the doctor consults your physician before planning treatment. Uncontrolled diabetes can affect healing, so it needs to be stabilised before implant surgery.
In many cases an implant is still possible, but the doctor first checks how much bone is left. After a tooth is lost, the bone in that area slowly shrinks. If there is not enough bone, the doctor may suggest bone grafting. A sinus lift may be considered for the back of the upper jaw. You can read more in the section on dental implants with bone loss.
Implant-supported teeth can improve chewing after healing. The foods you can manage depend on your restoration and oral health. Your dentist will explain which foods to avoid during recovery and how to care for your new teeth.
Your crown or bridge is made to match the shade, shape and size of your own teeth. This helps the new tooth blend in with the rest of your smile.
For most cases, from planning to final restoration, the process takes about 3 to 4 months. If bone grafting is needed, it might take longer. But we keep you informed and comfortable at every step.
We offer fixed full-arch restorations supported by implants. The doctor first assesses your bone, gums and general health to decide whether this treatment suits you.
We hear this often — and yes, we can. We take extra time to explain every step and offer solutions like numbing gels, calming techniques, and if needed, light sedation. You’ll never be rushed or judged.
The doctor decides whether you need bone grafting after an examination and a CBCT scan. The scan shows the height and width of the bone at the planned implant site. If there is not enough bone, the doctor may recommend bone grafting before implants and explain how it works in your case.
Absolutely. Many of our patients are new to the UAE. We offer consultations in English, Arabic, and Russian, and we’re happy to coordinate with your insurance or previous dental records if needed. We’ll make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible.
