Dental Implants

An artificial dental root that is surgically inserted into the jaw bone &that can be used by the dentist as platform for prosthesis.
A dental implant is a structure that replaces a missing tooth. With screw-like devices, the surgeon inserts an implant into the jawbone, and it acts as an anchor for an artificial tooth, called a crown. A device called an abutment connects the artificial tooth to the dental implant. The crown is custom-made to fit the person’s mouth and match the color of their teeth. Crowns look, feel, and function like natural teeth.
Basically Implants are of two types:

• Conventional Implants
• Basal Implants

Conventional Implants

A conventional dental implant is one of many different types of dental implants. This implant comes in two pieces - component for root and component for teeth. These two components are joined together using a small screw. This implant is an effective permanent solution for missing teeth.

The total time period required for this procedure is about 4-6 months and is divided into 2 trips. The time required for the 1st trip is about 3-4 days. In the second trip to complete the whole treatment, a full week is needed.

Step 1: On the first visit after tooth extraction the implant is placed. The test the bone strength, sometimes artificial powdered bone material is placed into the space. This process is called socket grafting or bone grafting. In cases where the bone density is less in upper jaw molar or premolar a sinus lift is performed. Bone material is added externally so the jaw bone is made stronger. Then the sinus membrane is moved upwards. We are able to do all of the above procedures in just one appointment. If a procedure like bone grafting is required then an additional day might be needed before implant placement. The root component is screwed into the jawbone after which might be needed before implant placement. The root component is screwed into the jawbone after which gums are sealed to cover the implant. For the implant to osseointegrate with your jaw bone it takes about 4- 6 months to be stable. The procedure can only be performed after a prior consultation and diagnosis of the case.

Step 2: After the root compound is fitted and is stable the abutment and crown need to be placed. The abutments are attached to the implants. Later for the purpose of crafting the crown the impression of abutments are taken. This is to make sure the crowns fit properly and align properly with the gum line. A week's time is needed for completing the whole procedure.

Basal Implants

The basal implantology, which is also called cortical, or Biocortical Implant System, has been developed and it includes the positioning of implants at the basal cortical bone, which offers exceptional quality cortical bones because of preservation of those complex implants. The Basal Implant would be the most innovative among implants, effective for any state of bone. It may be used on patients who have any bone density and any bone mass.

The usage of basal implants to restore role within an atrophied mandibular alveolar ridge is a powerful alternative to using conventional implant processes. These implants may be exposed to moderate loading following instant insertion. It’s also beneficial to the individual in the facets of Quicker Renovation of masticatory function, Cost-Effectiveness, cind loss of further surgical invasive processes. Therefore, the regular use of the technique to aid in supplying a fixed solution to patients that cannot be suggested for traditional implant designs is possible. But, good knowledge and training have to completely guarantee the achievement of those implants.

Benefits of Basal Implants

• The prosthesis could be repaired within 72 hours of implant surgery. This is time saving compared to instances of traditional implant placements which need bone grafting or augmentation for a total of 1 year or 6 weeks is required for treatment completion using a demand for an interim prosthesis.
• Since basal implants have a single- piece design in which the abutment and body are fused together, the port issues typically faced with either two or three-piece stanaara implants have been prevented.
• The positioning of one bit implant within an edentulous area is frequently intended as flapless protocol that entails minimal bone cutting.
• Acute and despairing periodontal conditions can be treated with basal implants at 1 visit. Following the elimination of periodontal compromised tender tissues and teeth, then the individual is prepared for implant positioning.
• Basal implants are a fantastic selection for diabetics and smokers Implant care incorporates ideal oral hygiene and routine prophylactic examination.
