Generally, when teeth are painful, it is necessary to see a dentist in time, because teeth are the most sensitive parts of nerves, and it is difficult for ordinary people to bear the pain. If the tooth is no longer usable, then consider a few more teeth. When implanting teeth, many procedures are also different from person to person, and the recovery situation is also different. The specific teeth that are suitable for you should follow the advice of your dentist. The following outlines the basic procedure for dental implants:
1. First, do an oral panoramic film, jaw CT, etc. Check the specific conditions of the oral cavity, whether there is inflammation, alveolar bone resorption, etc. Then, the doctor will ask the patient’s general medical history, and may need to check blood routine, clotting time, blood pressure, blood sugar, 5 hepatitis B items, pulse, etc. After confirming that the surgery can be performed, the removal of the mold will be diagnosed and the implant plan will be designated. (about 1 hour for the first time);
2, the official start of dental implant surgery. A hole is made in the alveolar bone and an artificial implant is placed. The gum bed is tightly sutured, and the stitches can be removed after about a week. This time about 2 and a half months – 3 months)
3. Wait for the osseointegration period. (The length of this time varies from person to person and implant system. Some people and some dental implant systems take 2–3 months; some take more than half a year)
4. Install the healing abutment. Pass the implant out of the gum. Wait for the soft tissue to form.
5. After about 2–3 weeks, after the soft composition is formed. The implant dentist will replace the healing abutment with a permanent abutment.
6. Wear dental implants.
7. After all completed, regularly go to the hospital for inspection 2 times a year.
How long does it take to complete a dental implant?
1. Implants from the root of the tooth to the completion of the restoration need to be determined according to the patient’s alveolar bone condition, and cannot be generalized.
2. If the patient’s alveolar bone mass is normal, the depth and width can meet the conditions required for dental implants. Kowa Dental can be completed in about 2.5-3 months.
3. If the patient has been missing teeth for a long time and the patient’s alveolar bone resorption is relatively severe, bone grafting is required. It takes about 3-4 months.
4. The specific implant time varies from person to person. Depends on the implant plan and plan prescribed by your doctor.
