What is the common sense of dental implants? When doing dental implant surgery, you should choose a method that suits your actual situation, so as to make the surgery the best. What is the common sense of dental implants? Let’s take a look at the introduction of the experts.
1. If the residual root of the tooth can still be used, root canal treatment is often used to remove infectious substances, eliminate periapical lesions, and then install a crown to restore the shape and function of the tooth. Because there are many types of porcelain crowns, it depends on the individual situation. After all, different people have different teeth, and have different adaptability to porcelain tooth materials, and the most suitable materials are different. If the residual root cannot be used through the inspection, the residual root must be removed, and then the tooth shape and function will be restored. If the alveolar bone and physical condition are good, it is suitable for dental implants, and dental implant restoration is the first choice. After all, dental implants have the comfort and beauty similar to natural teeth, and have a long life.
2. Who are the suitable groups for dental implants? From the point of view of the general condition, the patients for dental implants must be adults who are in good physical and mental health, or young people with established bone and tooth development, without organic diseases of various organs and osteoporosis. The conditions for partial needs are those with missing one tooth, multiple teeth or even the entire mouth; those with severe gum resorption, difficulty in wearing traditional dentures, and inability to chew food; and those with special requirements for the appearance and function of dentures, Or the terminal deletion cannot be performed by traditional fixed repair. There are also some requirements in terms of local conditions. For example, the implant surgery needs to be performed 3 months after the tooth is extracted, and the oral soft tissue is required to have no obvious inflammation, and the gum bone shape and quality are required to be good.
3. Is there an age limit for dental implants? According to the dentist: Generally, there is no age limit for dental implants, and the elderly can also be implanted. In the United States, an 80-year-old man has successfully implanted dentures. However, the premise is that the common chronic diseases of the elderly such as diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, and cerebrovascular disease are well controlled, and there is no inflammation or mucosal disease in the oral cavity.
4. The most common methods of dental implants
1. Ordinary dental implants. It refers to the dental implant surgery carried out by conventional methods, which requires surgical operations such as incision of the gum, implantation of the root, and suture of the gum. Ordinary dental implants do not use advanced technologies such as computer navigation and minimally invasive surgery; no artificial tooth root can be implanted after tooth extraction; no dental crown will be installed immediately after the artificial tooth root is implanted. Ordinary dental implantation is the basis of advanced dental implantation technology, and it is also an entry-level technique for dentists to carry out dental implantation. The cost of dental implantation is relatively economical.
2. Fast dental implants. It refers to a dental implant method that saves the number of operations and saves the time of visiting a doctor compared with ordinary dental implants. At present, the rapid dental implantation techniques widely used in the world include: Immediate Implantation after Extraction, Immediate Implantation After Implantation, and Simultaneous Completion of Bone Implant and Implantation. For complex cases, these techniques can be used synergistically to shorten implant sessions. Contrast: Ordinary dental implants usually take 3 to 6 months, or even longer. Many people don’t want to start a long wait; don’t want to face the embarrassment of being toothless; don’t want to go through more surgical operations; fully toothless people don’t want to endure the pain of being unable to eat during dental implants.
3. Advanced dental implants. Compared with ordinary dental implants, it improves the safety, comfort and efficiency of dental implants through the comprehensive use of more advanced diagnostic equipment and surgical techniques. Including dental implant CT diagnosis, dental implant computer design, minimally invasive implantation of artificial tooth roots, etc.
4. Boneless dental implants. It refers to the implantation method used when the amount of alveolar bone is insufficient. Long-term tooth loss can lead to atrophy of the alveolar bone, and many people cannot immediately implant a tooth due to insufficient height or width of the alveolar. If you choose the ordinary dental implant method, you have to use a painful, time-consuming and expensive bone grafting procedure first, and the dental implant can be implanted after 6 months. In fact, 80% of people with insufficient dental bones can shorten the implantation process through advanced implant surgery techniques. Including ultra-short implants, maxillary sinus lift implants to increase bone height, bone expansion implants to increase bone width, etc.
When you decide to have surgery, you should understand the disease in advance and do a good job in the operation. I hope the above content can help you, and finally I wish you a speedy recovery to good health.
