Dental Implants
Long-lasting, natural-looking tooth replacement solutions at a fraction of US prices
What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically inserted into the jawbone to serve as artificial tooth roots. They provide a strong foundation for attaching replacement teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth.
The implant fuses with your bone in a process called osseointegration, creating a sturdy base for the replacement tooth. This integration helps prevent bone loss that often occurs when teeth are missing, preserving your facial structure and smile.

- The Implant Post – A small titanium screw placed into the jawbone that acts like a natural tooth root.
- The Abutment – A connector that links the implant post to the visible restoration.
- The Crown (or Bridge/Denture) – A custom-made replacement tooth that looks and functions just like your natural tooth.
Once placed, the implant integrates with your bone through a process called osseointegration, forming a secure, stable base. This not only restores your smile but also helps preserve bone and facial structure over time—something traditional bridges or dentures can’t offer.

The Dental Implant Process
At Avidental, we make it simple to receive expert dental implant care in Cartagena or Bogotá, with a guided process designed for patients traveling from the U.S. or Canada.
Initial Assessment
Your implant journey begins at home. You’ll visit a local dental office in your area to obtain a CBCT scan and an intraoral scan (IOS). Once you send us these digital files, our specialists in Colombia will perform a thorough evaluation and prepare your personalized treatment plan.
Treatment Planning
Using the advanced scans you’ve provided, your Colombian dental team designs the ideal approach for your implant placement. This step includes 3D planning for optimal precision, safety, and long-term success.
Implant Placement
Once in Colombia, a titanium implant is placed into your jawbone using computer-guided techniques. These minimally invasive methods ensure accuracy, comfort, and faster healing.
Healing & Final Restoration
After a short healing period (in some cases, immediately), your custom crown, bridge, or denture is placed, giving you a natural, functional, and long-lasting smile.
