DENTAL IMPLANTS

Dental implants have revolutionised the replacement of missing teeth. Depending on your needs, a dental implant procedure can be for a single tooth, multiple teeth or full mouth teeth replacement.

  • Are you missing a tooth, or have you lost multiple teeth?
  • Are you sick of having dentures that move around?
  • Been told you need dental implants?
  • Do you have poor dental or oral health?
  • You’ve heard about implants and now want to know more?

What is a dental implant?

A dental implant is a small titanium post that is surgically placed into your jawbone, where it serves as a replacement for a missing tooth root. Once the implant is placed, your bone will gradually fuse with the titanium post, providing a strong and stable base for a replacement tooth or bridge. This allows you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence, just like you would with natural teeth. Dental implants are a popular and effective way to replace missing teeth, and can improve your oral health and overall quality of life.

STAGES IN DENTAL IMPLANT SUPPORTED TOOTH OR TEETH

The process of getting a dental implant typically involves several stages, including:

  1. Consultation: Your dentist will examine your mouth, take x-rays, and discuss your medical history to determine if you are a good candidate for dental implants.
  2. Implant placement: During this stage, a small incision will be made in your gums, and the implant will be surgically placed into your jawbone. This is done under local anesthesia, and you may feel some discomfort or swelling afterwards.
  3. Healing: Once the implant is placed, your bone will gradually fuse with the titanium post in a process called osseointegration. This can take several months, during which time you may need to avoid hard or chewy foods and practice good oral hygiene to promote healing.
  4. Abutment placement: Once the implant has fused with your bone, a small connector piece called an abutment will be attached to the top of the implant. This will serve as a base for your replacement tooth or bridge.
  5. Restoration: Finally, your dentist will take impressions of your mouth to create a custom-made replacement tooth or bridge that will attach to the abutment. This may involve several appointments to ensure a perfect fit and natural look.

Overall, the dental implant process can take several months to complete, but the end result is a strong, durable, and natural-looking replacement for your missing teeth.

What is All on 4 or All on 6 in dental implants.

All-on-4 and All-on-6 are two popular dental implant techniques used to replace multiple missing teeth, or even an entire arch of teeth, in a single procedure. Here’s a brief explanation of each technique:

All-on-4: This technique involves the placement of four dental implants to support a full arch of replacement teeth. The implants are strategically placed at angles to maximize contact with the jawbone, allowing for greater stability and support. The replacement teeth are then attached to the implants using abutments, providing a natural-looking and functional smile.

All-on-6: This technique is similar to All-on-4, but uses six dental implants instead of four. This provides even greater stability and support, making it ideal for patients with greater bone density or those who need more comprehensive tooth replacement.

Both All-on-4 and All-on-6 offer several advantages over traditional dentures, including improved stability, comfort, and chewing function. They also require less surgery and healing time compared to other implant techniques, making them a great option for patients with limited time or budget. However, it’s important to discuss your specific needs and goals with your dentist to determine the best treatment option for you.
