Implant Screw System
Implant Screw System
The screw system is the set of small, high-precision components - retaining screws and connecting parts - that fasten your prosthesis securely onto its implants.
At its heart, the screw system is the small but critical hardware that links your visible prosthesis to the implants anchored in your jaw. It is made up of retaining screws and connecting parts machined to extremely fine tolerances, so that every component seats precisely against the next with no play or gap. Because the assembly is screw-retained rather than cemented, your prosthesis stays firmly fixed during everyday biting and chewing, yet your dentist can unfasten it cleanly whenever maintenance is needed. That single design choice quietly shapes how easy your restoration is to live with for years to come.
The advantage of retrievability becomes clear over time. With a screw-retained restoration, your dentist can lift the prosthesis off for a thorough professional clean, inspect the implants and gum tissue underneath, and refasten everything to a controlled, manufacturer-specified tightness - none of which is possible with a permanently cemented restoration. The components are engineered and matched precisely to your specific implants, so the connection stays stable and the load is shared evenly across the system. If a screw ever needs replacing in the future, it can be swapped without disturbing the implants themselves.
At Dental Med Austria we treat the screw system as part of the long-term engineering of your smile, not an afterthought. Our prosthetic team selects and torques each component to its proper specification with premium-quality precision, so the fit is exact and the result is built to be serviced rather than replaced. For international patients, this matters even more: a retrievable, well-documented restoration is far simpler to maintain wherever you are in the world. Send us a panoramic X-ray and a few photos and we will prepare a free written treatment plan, tailored to your case, within 24-48 hours.
There is no recovery period for the screw system itself - your prosthesis feels stable straight away. Simply keep up your normal cleaning routine and attend regular check-ups, where the screw retention lets us remove, clean, and refasten the restoration whenever needed.
Idéal pour : Patients who want a securely fixed prosthesis that can still be unfastened for maintenance and long-term servicing.

Questions fréquentes
Questions sur implant screw system
Why is a screw-retained prosthesis an advantage?+
Screw retention keeps the prosthesis firmly fixed during everyday use, yet your dentist can remove it cleanly for a thorough professional clean or any future adjustment - something a cemented restoration does not allow.
How does the screw system fit my plan?+
The components are planned as part of your overall prosthetic plan, which we tailor to your case - send a panoramic X-ray and a few photos for a free personalised treatment plan within 24-48 hours.
What happens if a retaining screw loosens or breaks?+
Because the system is retrievable, a loosened screw can simply be re-tightened to its correct torque, and a worn or broken screw can be replaced - all without disturbing the implants beneath your prosthesis.
Will I feel the screws or see them when I smile?+
No - the retaining screws sit hidden inside the prosthesis and are sealed over once tightened, so the finished restoration looks and feels like natural teeth with nothing visible.
Can the screw system be serviced if I live abroad?+
Yes - a screw-retained restoration is designed to be unfastened and refastened, so routine maintenance is straightforward wherever you are, which is why it suits our international patients particularly well.
