When Implantation Is Needed And Patients’ FAQ Are Answered
July 27, 2021
Among the main indications for dental implantation are:
🔹 Missing one or more teeth. Implantation allows you to carry out treatment without involving the teeth located next to the missing.
🔹 Absence of one or more extreme teeth in the dentition. Implantation allows you to perform permanent prosthetics.
🔹 Complete absence of teeth on the upper, lower or both jaws. Implants can serve as a support for fixing both removable and non-removable dentures.
🔹 Defects of the dentition of various origins, combined defects. Implantation will eliminate existing defects.
What are implants
An implant is a screw, usually made of titanium, that is inserted into the jaw bone. Bone tissue over time “grows” with the artificial root and securely fixes it. This process is called osseointegration or “engraftment”.
A crown or prosthesis is attached to the top of the implant, which replaces the missing tooth and mimics its visible part.
Respect Dental Dental Center specializes in implants of all kinds: from orthodontic microimplants to the highest quality implants Straumann, Bego and Alpha-Bio.
Implantation is the most common question of patients
❓How is implantation?
Implantation has two stages: implant placement (15-20 minutes) and implant opening and gum shaping.
❓Which implants are the best?
All implants are good. We use implants from the best manufacturers: Straumann (Switzerland), Bego (Germany), Alpha-Bio (Israel).
❓Is it possible to place an implant if the tooth has been removed for a long time?
Yes, implant placement is a good modern solution to restore masticatory efficiency.
❓Is it possible to place a dental implant immediately after the tooth is removed?
It is possible. This is called a one-step technique. However, this requires the absence of inflammatory processes in the bone and sufficient bone volume. The doctor makes conclusions about the choice of implantation technique during the examination.
❓How to eat properly after implant placement?
Depends on the number of implants. If it is 1-2, then there are almost no restrictions. If it is the implantation of edentulous jaws, you should limit the consumption of spicy, salty and hard foods, so as not to irritate the surface of the wound. There are restrictions on alcoholic and low-alcohol beverages while taking antibiotics.
❓How many implants can be placed at one time?
It is possible to install all teeth, ie 28 implants. But, as a rule, for toothless jaws, 6 implants on the upper jaw and 6 on the lower jaw are enough to restore full masticatory efficiency.
❓What is better for a badly damaged tooth: “Implant or crown”?
Depends on the level of tooth decay. If the walls are intact – you can crown. If the tooth is badly damaged (which needs to be removed), it is better to install a dental implant.
❓How long does it take for the implant to take root?
2 to 6 months. It depends on the implant system and many other individual factors.
❓Is implantation possible for periodontitis?
Implantation is possible when there is bone. If there is enough bone in X-rays for periodontitis, implantation is possible. A prerequisite for this type of implantation is the patient’s strict adherence to oral hygiene requirements.
❓How long will dental implants last?
Implantation is possible when there is bone. If there is enough bone in X-rays for periodontitis, implantation is possible. A prerequisite for this type of implantation is the patient’s strict adherence to oral hygiene requirements.
❓How long will dental implants last?
On average, the implant should last from 10 years. It depends on:
🔹how the patient monitors oral hygiene;
🔹 some bad habits of the patient;
🔹 Absence of injuries and any somatic diseases that can lead to bone destruction.
