In Which Situations Is Implant Applied?
Single Tooth Loss:
-
If there is sufficient bone in the area where the implant will be placed, a dental crown can be placed on the implant to replace the missing tooth.
Complete or Partial Tooth Loss:
-
In cases where multiple teeth are missing, implants can be used to create either fixed or removable prostheses. Fixed prostheses are anchored to the implants, providing greater comfort compared to removable prostheses.
Jaw and Facial Defects:
-
Implants can be used to restore aesthetic appearance in cases of jaw and facial defects.
Resorbed Jaw Bone Problem:
-
Tooth loss can lead to resorption of the jaw bone over time. In such cases, a bone graft may be needed before implant treatment.
Patients Not Preferring Removable Prostheses:
-
Implants are an ideal choice for patients who do not prefer removable prostheses. They are more comfortable and functional compared to removable options.
How is Implant Treatment Performed?
1. Examination and Planning:
-
A detailed examination and X-ray are performed to assess the jaw bone and remaining teeth. There are two options for implant placement: single-stage procedure and two-stage procedure.
2. Implant Placement:
-
In a single-stage procedure, the implant is placed and a temporary abutment is attached immediately. In a two-stage procedure, the implant is placed and then covered with gum tissue, allowing for healing before proceeding further.
3. Healing Process:
-
For the lower jaw, a 3-month healing period is typically required, while for the upper jaw, a 6-month healing period is needed. During this time, a temporary bridge may be placed. In some cases, new teeth can be attached to the implants immediately.
4. Placement of Prosthetic Abutments:
-
After the healing period, prosthetic abutments are placed, allowing the patient to smile and eat comfortably.
