Dental implant technology is a new technology for dentition restoration that has emerged in recent years at home and abroad, that is, artificial titanium metal roots are implanted in the gums of the edentulous area by surgery, and then a denture is installed after combining with the surrounding bone tissue. Because of its advantages of stability, beauty, no damage to adjacent teeth, and minimal surgical trauma, it is increasingly favored by people.
It is not advisable to gnaw on the bones after the “seed” is alive. Once the teeth are “seed” alive, some people think that everything is fine, gnawing on the bones, chewing sugar cane, eating everything, and not paying attention to oral hygiene. If this happens, the crown of the implant may crack or be damaged, resulting in the premature death of the implant. In fact, after “planting” dental implants, it still needs careful care. The “implanted teeth” should allow the implanted teeth to reasonably undertake the chewing function to prevent excessive force. Some foods cannot be chewed, such as bones, hard beans, jerky, etc. Patients should strictly follow the doctor’s advice. At the same time, it is best not to smoke, because smoking will increase the incidence of tissue inflammation around implants. After “planting” teeth, it is necessary to visit a specialist hospital regularly for follow-up visits to promptly remove plaque and calculus that cannot be removed by regular brushing. If the occlusal incongruity is found, the doctor can correct it in time.
“Hidden” and “Implanted” teeth must be tailored before implantation. Tooth is a minor operation. Now it has been developed to a minimally invasive operation, with less postoperative bleeding and no swelling and pain. However, before “implanting teeth”, it must be checked by a specially trained dental implant doctor, including oral examination and X-ray examination, to determine whether it is suitable for artificial dental implants. At the same time, the crown can be made according to the face shape of the patient and the shape and color of other teeth, so as to achieve the best effect of overall coordination and aesthetics. Implant surgery should be performed when the “implanted teeth” are in good health (such as no cold, diarrhea, etc.). This technique is also contraindicated for some local conditions, such as: various inflammations of soft and hard tissues in the oral cavity, various benign and malignant tumors in the oral cavity that have not been cured, those with abnormal occlusion and restricted mouth opening, and severe bone resorption and atrophy of the gums leading to bone loss. Those with insufficient amount are not suitable for direct implantation, and can be implanted at the same time or delayed under the condition that bone grafting improves bone quality. In addition, patients with special chronic diseases such as diabetes, uncontrolled heart disease and high blood pressure, blood diseases, and osteoporosis are not suitable for immediate dental implant restoration. Pregnant women and patients who cannot maintain good oral hygiene conditions such as smoking and drinking are also not suitable for dental implant restoration.
Rinse your mouth every day after implantation, eat soft food on the day after surgery, and do not brush your teeth within 24 hours after surgery to avoid irritation of the wound, and local cold compresses are required. Patients who have teeth implanted immediately after tooth extraction should not chew hard food with dental implants within 3 months after surgery. In order to reduce the movement of muscles around the surgery area, try not to laugh or talk frequently within 3 months after surgery to prevent Excessive movement of the gills and tearing of the wound.
Good oral hygiene is an important guarantee for the success of artificial tooth implantation. Therefore, “tooth implanters” should do a good job of oral cleaning on time. Rinse with mouthwash several times a day to avoid infection; keep it according to the doctor’s advice, keep the cavity clean, and insist on brushing your teeth once in the morning and evening and gargling after meals. To brush your teeth, use a toothbrush with moderately soft and hard bristles and rounded ends, and use toothpaste with soft abrasives and warm water to clean food residues and plaques attached to the surrounding implants. In the second week and third month after the operation, go to the hospital for a follow-up visit as much as possible, keep in touch with the surgeon, and receive oral hygiene guidance and special oral hygiene care at regular follow-up visits. Soft scale and other harmful substances to prevent the occurrence of inflammation around the implant.
Boys can only have dental implants after the age of 18. Generally speaking, men can basically complete their growth and development at around the age of 18. Therefore, boys cannot have implant treatment until after the age of 18. Although dental implants have many advantages, as long as the real teeth that can be saved through treatment should be retained, they should not be pulled out at every turn, and tooth extraction should be considered as a last resort.
Dental implant surgery is usually a less invasive surgery, but also requires anesthesia. There will be no pain during the surgery. Generally speaking, there will be local pain and swelling within a day or two after surgery. Everyone’s response to pain It varies, but most people can go without pain medication after surgery. Implants rely on their own artificial roots to repair, without grinding the healthy teeth next to them, without any damage to the teeth. The material selected is pure titanium, which has very good biocompatibility, and most people will not have rejection reactions, but very few people will have allergic reactions to metal materials. Although the success rate of dental implants is high, failure can still occur, which is influenced by various factors, such as poor healing ability, poor oral hygiene, smoking and diabetes, etc.
