Implantation
How to restore the defect of dentition without exposing dissection adjacent teeth? How to avoid the negative impact of dentures on abutment teeth and oral mucosa?
New technologies, rapidly developing in recent times, to ensure progress in the field of prosthetics. So high-tech area of dentistry is a dental implant that allows for efficient denture without teeth preparation and to avoid a removable prosthesis, even when they are completely lost.
Implantation – a method of implanting an artificial root (implant) in the upper or lower jaw. Implants are used as supports for which fixed a crown (full replace lost teeth) or removable or non-removable dentures. The design of the implant is composed of two main parts – the implant, which is a titanium screw implanted in the jaw surgically and the abutment, also made from titanium, which is attached to the implant after a period of engraftment.
The method of implantation has a number of significant advantages over traditional methods of prosthetics and enables patients to get dentures or indistinguishable in appearance or in function of their own teeth.
Advantages of implantation:
- Implants can replace the defective dentition, without turning the adjacent teeth;
- Implants can replace the defective dentition of any length and localization;
- Introduction into the bone implant stops resorption of bone in the area of the missing tooth (or teeth). The bone, deprived of functional load, quickly atrophy. The introduction of the implant allows the back to load the bone and, therefore, to keep it.
