With the popularity of dental plastic surgery, dental implants have become the first choice for many patients with dental diseases. It is durable and beautiful, and it can make people more like it.
However, the hazards of dental implants are not well understood by everyone, and dental implants are not completely safe. It may also cause complications due to improper treatment.
For example: the harm of dental implants 1, causes of infection: most of the surgical area or surgical instruments are not thoroughly disinfected, pollution and other complications induced infection.
Treatment: Generally take routine antibiotics for treatment, or consult your doctor for advice.
2, wound cracking induced reasons: suture too tight or too loose, especially in the case of induced infection, more likely to lead to local wound dehiscence.
Treatment: Should be timely debridement, suture again, avoid implant exposure.
3. Causes of bleeding or congestion: Most of them are caused by extensive submucosal dissection or mucoperiosteal dissection, especially poor postoperative compression, which may induce submucosal or subcutaneous bleeding and other symptoms.
For example, when the implant is inserted through the lower mandible, it may lead to submental congestion.
Treatment: local congestion can generally be absorbed after a few days, can be in the early postoperative cold compress, late hot compress.
Due to systemic factors, there is bleeding tendency, should be symptomatic treatment.
4. Causes of sinus mucosal perforation: Due to insufficient bone mass, maxillary sinus or nasal floor mucosa is easily penetrated during maxillary implantation, resulting in peri-implant infection.
Treatment method: remove in time.
5. Causes of lower lip numbness: Most of them are caused by injury of mental nerve during intraoperative dissection or direct trauma during implant implantation.
Treatment: the former can be restored, the latter should be removed to avoid nerve re-placement implantation.
6. Gingivitis or gingival hyperplasia is one of the most common hazards of dental implants.
Causes: After denture implant restoration, due to improper cleaning methods or poor oral hygiene, the dental implant abutment exposed to the mouth is in poor cleaning condition, which is caused by plaque adhered to the base pile or long-term chronic inflammation to stimulate the gingiva.
Treatment: The formation of plaque is mostly due to scratches on the surface finish of the implant abutment, and bacteria can multiply on it.
Therefore, in addition to ensuring the smoothness of the base pile during the production and processing of the implant itself, the surface of the abutment should be carefully protected in the process of surgical operation and patient self-care.
7. Causes of implant trauma or mechanical fracture: Most of them are caused by unreasonable stress distribution, mechanical factors and accidental impact of the implant denture. In serious cases, mechanical fracture or slight loosening of the implant may occur.
Treatment: pay attention to the stress distribution of implant during operation, and pay special attention to the behavioral environment after operation.
The dental film was taken on the day after the operation to check the implant status.
The sand strip on the wound is gently bitten for half an hour to an hour before spitting out. After surgery, ice can be applied to the implant site to reduce swelling.
2 hours after the operation, you can take (warm or soft) liquid or semi-liquid food, gargle gently after the meal, keep the mouth clean, do not brush your teeth on the day after the operation.
After the effect of anesthesia disappears, some people can take oral analgesics if they have mild pain.
Within 24 hours after surgery, do not do strenuous exercise, do not drive, do not drink alcohol, do not take a hot bath, sleep pillow slightly pad, a little edema or pain wound is normal.
Oral anti-inflammatories were taken for about 3 days after implantation.
If you have severe pain or swelling after one week, please contact your doctor immediately.
Stitches are removed in seven to ten days, and dentures are worn little or no within two weeks.
Three months later, we will return to the doctor and do the second stage of mold taking and repair in about three to six months.
