Losing a tooth does not only affect esthetics. It can also make chewing difficult, alter speech and even cause loss of the jawbone.
Dental implants are the safest and most durable way to restore both function and harmony to your mouth.
Our specialists perform personalized implantology treatments, using minimally invasive techniques and advanced digital technology, which guarantee precise, natural and comfortable results, specifically adapted to your case.

A dental implant is a titanium structure that is placed in the maxillary or mandibular bone to replace the root of a lost tooth. Once integrated into the bone, a customized crown is placed on the implant to restore the chewing function and natural esthetics of the original tooth.
It is the most advanced, safe and durable solution to replace missing teeth without damaging neighboring teeth, as is the case with traditional bridges.
It is the most advanced, safe and durable solution to replace missing teeth without damaging neighboring teeth, as is the case with traditional bridges.
As specialists in dental implantology in Palma de Mallorca, we recommend implants in the following cases:
If you lose a tooth and do not replace it, a series of esthetic and functional consequences can be triggered that affect your oral health in the medium and long term.
First, the bone where the root was located begins to gradually resorb.
This bone loss not only compromises future treatment options, such as implants, but can also change the shape of the face, resulting in a more aged or sunken appearance.
In addition, adjacent teeth tend to lean towards the empty socket, causing misalignment and bite alterations. This affects chewing efficiency and can strain other areas of the mouth and cause discomfort in the temporomandibular joint.
The opposing tooth, not finding contact, may descend or elevate more than normal, compromising its stability. Over time, difficulty in speaking, plaque accumulation in irregular areas and a loss of confidence when smiling may also appear.
For all these reasons, it is important to always consider the replacement of any missing tooth, even if it is not in the visible area.
Platón Dental specialists study each case individually to offer the most appropriate solution, preserving esthetics, functionality and long-term health.
1.- Chewing function as a natural tooth
Implants allow you to eat normally again, without discomfort or limitations. Unlike removable prostheses, they do not move or generate friction.
2.- Personalized and natural esthetics
Each crown is custom designed, respecting the shape, color and position of your teeth. The result is imperceptible to the naked eye.
3.- Bone and face preservation
By replacing the tooth root, the implant stimulates the bone and prevents its resorption. This maintains facial structure and prevents the aged appearance associated with prolonged tooth loss.
4.- Does not affect neighboring teeth
Unlike bridges, implants do not require grinding healthy teeth. They preserve the long-term health of your mouth.
5.- Fixed and comfortable solution
Forget about removing dentures for cleaning or worrying about adhesives. The implant is integrated into your mouth like another tooth.
6.- High durability
With good hygiene and follow-up, an implant can last more than 20 years, offering an excellent return on investment.
7.- Improvement of self-esteem and self-confidence.
Restoring the smile and dental functionality has a direct impact on personal confidence, the way of speaking, expressing oneself and relating to others.
The professionals at Platón dental have been a reference in dental implants in Palma de Mallorca for decades, combining clinical precision, close attention and advanced technology. Our specialization is not just a label: it is the result of a rigorous work philosophy, consolidated on three key pillars:
1. A team of specialist dentists, not generalists
Each of our professionals has a degree in their specific specialty, with formal training and clinical practice focused on implantology, surgery, prosthetics or cosmetic dentistry. At Platón dental you will not find generic treatments, but plans designed by specialists who know each technique and each material in depth.
2. The innovative vision of Dr. Vicente Platón
Founder of the clinic, Doctor of Dentistry and academic reference, Vicente Platón has promoted from the beginning an innovative approach, integrating scientific advances and new technologies with a humanistic view. His leadership guarantees that every implant we place follows the highest medical, functional and esthetic standards.
More than 40 years caring for smiles in Mallorca
With offices in Palma and Manacor, our experience has allowed us to see dental implantology evolve since its beginnings. This accumulated clinical experience is key to know what each patient needs and how to accompany them before, during and after treatment.
Losing one or more teeth does not only affect the esthetic aspect. It can also have consequences on general health that are often overlooked. Dental implants not only restore the functionality of the mouth, but also contribute to the preservation of overall well-being.
Good chewing is the first step towards good digestion. When teeth are missing, we tend to chew worse and faster, which can hinder digestion and the proper absorption of nutrients. With implants, chewing efficiency is restored and a varied and healthy diet is facilitated.
It also improves pronunciation and confidence in speaking, which directly influences self-esteem and social life. Many people who have lived for years with removable prostheses, or who avoided smiling because of complexes, experience a profound emotional change after receiving dental implants.
On the other hand, oral health is closely linked to the health of the body. Several studies have shown the relationship between chronic infections in the mouth and systemic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular problems or low-grade inflammatory processes. Recovering a healthy and functional mouth is, in many cases, a decision that goes beyond aesthetics.
A virtual reproduction of your bone is made by means of a 3D CT X-ray and impressions of the jaw. This allows the implants to be positioned virtually, with the advantage of being able to place the dental implants without opening the entire gum. This entire protocol is so precise that it allows the prosthesis to be placed the same day. It also significantly reduces surgical and postoperative time.
It is a diagnostic tool that allows us to plan the treatments, making a virtual simulation of the future prosthesis (unitary/partial/complete) that allows an optimal position of the implants.
Thanks to the use of this technology, we are able to perform implant treatment in an efficient, fast and minimally invasive manner.
At Plato Clinics we share real cases that reflect our commitment to excellence and innovation in oral health. Each treatment is a personalized process, where we combine experience, advanced technology and a human approach to recover the dental function and esthetics of our patients.
Our clinical cases demonstrate effective and lasting results in implant dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, orthodontics and oral rehabilitation, showing how we transform smiles and improve lives with high-quality, comprehensive solutions.

The latest in dental implantology combines digital technology, advanced materials and minimally invasive techniques to offer more precise, comfortable and predictable treatments.
Computer-guided surgery makes it possible to accurately plan the position, depth and angulation of the implant prior to surgery. Based on a 3D scanner and a software
A customized surgical guide is designed to guide the specialist during implant placement with millimeter precision. This reduces surgical time, minimizes incisions and improves recovery.
Dental implants are safe procedures, but like all surgery, they carry certain risks such as infection, inflammation (peri-implantitis), implant rejection, damage to adjacent structures or failure of osseointegration. These risks are minimized with proper diagnosis, good surgical technique and rigorous aftercare.
Titanium implants with a treated and textured surface to promote osseointegration are the most durable, with a useful life that can exceed 20 years if maintained with good hygiene and periodic revisions. The quality of the implant and the experience of the professional are key determinants.
Screwless dental implants, also called cemented or tapered connection implants, use a threadless connection system between the implant and the crown or abutment. This can facilitate placement and reduce certain risks of loosening, but requires a specific design and technique to ensure stability and avoid bacterial leaks.
They require a surgical procedure, which, although safe, implies a healing time. In cases with little amount of bone, a previous bone graft may be necessary, which lengthens the treatment. In addition, the cost is generally higher than other options such as removable prostheses or traditional bridges.
The most common complications are peri-implantitis (inflammation of the tissue around the implant), bone loss or failure of osseointegration. However, with proper hygiene and regular check-ups, these risks are significantly minimized.
The best option depends on each patient: quality and quantity of bone, general health, desired esthetics and habits. In general, titanium implants with bioactive surface placed by guided surgery are a safe and effective choice.
The implants are anchored directly to the maxillary or mandibular bone through a process called osseointegration, where the bone grows around the titanium implant, firmly fixing it like a natural root.
Titanium and its alloys are the standard due to their biocompatibility and resistance. There are also zirconium, ceramic and metallic implants, indicated in specific cases or to avoid allergies.
It is highly recommended for patients with no medical contraindications, as it offers a fixed, functional and esthetic solution with a high success rate and long-term durability.
Those manufactured by internationally recognized brands that guarantee quality control, traceability, certified materials and clinical support. The technique and experience of the professional who places them is also key.
The failure rate is low, generally less than 5%. Factors such as smoking, uncontrolled diabetes or poor hygiene can increase this percentage.
Most patients adjust within weeks, as the implants function like natural teeth. Occasionally, a short period is required to adjust bite and sensitivity.
Patients with severe uncontrolled systemic diseases, heavy smoking, coagulation problems, or who are unable to maintain adequate hygiene, may not be ideal candidates.
Computer-guided implantology, which uses 3D scanners and planning software to place implants with maximum precision, reducing surgical time and improving results.
Fixed bridges, partial or complete removable prostheses and orthodontic treatments in certain cases. However, none of them replace the bone function and long-term stability of an implant.
