What is the dental implant

Dental implant is an implantable bone tissue in the lower part of the structure as a basis for support, retention edentulous upper dental prosthesis restoration. It includes support for the lower part of the implant

And the upper dental prosthesis in two parts. Dental implant artificial materials (such as metal, ceramic, etc.) made implants (generally similar to root morphology), organized by surgical implantation method

Inside (usually on the lower jaw) and get solid bone tissue retention support through special device and connected to support the upper dental prosthesis. Dental Implants can be obtained with the day

However, tooth function, structure and aesthetic effect is very similar to repairing effect, has become more and more choice for patients with missing teeth restoration.
Implant System
Planting system usually denture teeth based on the implant material, shape and structure, surface structure and connection method for classification. Oral Implantology Oral contemporary clinical practice makes

Implant material, and implant morphology tends simplification. Mainly by four implants made of commercially pure titanium, threaded cylindrical, root-shaped implant with its unique advantages of dental implants

Has become widely accepted within the implant forms. Studies have shown that moderate rough surface structure and surface area can be increased implant osseointegration. Therefore, the project

Clinical use before planting system is generally obtained through various different surface roughness of the rough surface. With the top of the implant by means of a prosthesis

The structure is connected mainly divided into external and internal connections connecting the two.
Cropping systems commonly used in clinical usually consists of three parts:
1 implant: is implanted within the bone part, is still popular preform produced by different manufacturers implant shape, length, diameter, surface treatment, etc.

Not the same. But, in any case, must be biocompatible implant excellent material such as titanium, bio-ceramics production. So far, titanium dental implants is still

Material of choice. Titanium is a rare metal, periodic table of 22, an atomic weight of 47.9, a specific gravity of 4.5. Purity can be divided into four by, four hardest but the toughness is less than 1

Level. 4 titanium containing more than 99% and 100% of pure titanium can not be used nor economical. Most of the commercially pure titanium dental implants is that four titanium. Now widely recognized that

: Made with pure titanium bone implants can produce good osseointegration, its shape may be cylindrical, conical, can be threaded, threaded or not; surface

Etching, sand blasting or surface coating of titanium ions preferably a rough surface, because the rough surface of the implant and bone cells can increase the contact area.
2 abutments: Is part of the implant through the soft tissue, usually with screws to fix it to the implants. It can be the use of prefabricated components, or use the personalized

The production of components. Materials used in making the base station also need excellent biocompatibility, such as: titanium, precious metals, zirconium oxide, etc., and processed into a suitable shape, and high

Surface finish to protect the soft tissue health.
3 Superstructure: refers prosthesis usually has the crowns, bridges, brackets, attachments and other structures. Compared with conventional dentures, implant through a standard pre-

Components easier and more dental compressor accurately through the base station will connect the implant prosthesis.
Implant-supported dental prosthesis type
Including dentition defect types used in implant-supported crown, bridge repair, denture repair using various implant-supported fixed and movable

Repaired. Implant prosthesis connection with the main use screw-retained and adhesion retention in two ways.
Dental implant adapt to the crowd
Individual missing teeth, missing teeth area planting bed properly.
Most tooth loss, intends to use fixed partial denture, to reduce the gap of missing teeth abutment ends of the burden of the middle need to implant abutments.
Denture teeth, missing teeth absorb severe alveolar ridge can not bear the load of the denture base.
Full mouth tooth loss, viable overlay or full mouth full mouth fixed implant restoration.
Long-term dangers of missing teeth
Tooth gap appears: a long missing teeth, close to the teeth will tilt the jaw teeth elongation, dentition destroy the integrity of the passage of time, the remaining teeth are gradually thinning

Open to lose a good close contact, could easily lead occlusal function disorder that.
Masticatory dysfunction: Missing teeth remaining after a series of changes, so that the original good occlusal relationship changed due to the effective functioning between the remaining teeth area is reduced,

Masticatory function decreased, missing a first molar full mouth chewing function will be reduced about 30%.
Alveolar bone atrophy: If missing teeth too long, there will be varying degrees of alveolar bone disuse atrophy, and with missing teeth prolonged increase, this will give late denture repair

Complex facial appearance and maintaining coordination enormous difficulties. Recommended reading: Ten Advantages of dental implant inventory
Affect pronunciation and appearance: Tooth loss can cause wrinkles increase the appearance of aging, speech is unclear. Eventually becoming restoration, teeth tilt and elongation would prevent normal jaw function

Able to exercise, often appear in the joints, pain and limited mouth opening, etc. temporomandibular disorder that relationship syndrome.
Dental implant treatment
Including: clinical examination and imaging studies, diagnosis and treatment planning, surgery, dental implants and production and repair and maintenance of prostheses. According kind

Implant placement and tooth extraction time, implant surgery can be divided into immediate implantation, delayed immediate (within 3 months after tooth extraction) and delayed implant (tooth extraction after three months and longer).

According prosthesis and implant loading time relationship, implants can be divided into immediate loading, early loading and delayed loading.
Complete implant surgery to implant wear this stage, but the long years of implant short. Implants, you need to follow your doctor's required to maintain

Oral hygiene and regular (three months, every six months, or every year) review. If subjected to a number of factors may occur prosthesis off, porcelain breakage, fracture, in order to

And abutment screw loosening, implant breakage and other mechanical complications; and bone resorption around the implant and other biological complications. Seriously affect the restoration, aesthetics, the need to

Surgical treatment or even remove the implant.
Above is about dental implant related presentations, I hope the majority of the friends help. Aesthetic Dental experts also said dental implant is a prosthesis with

"High, fine, sharp" features technology, only those with a high standard of technology and equipment conditions of professional bodies in order to carry out this operation, and this must be engaged in professional

With oral medicine knowledge and skill of the professional system strictly skills, it is recommended if you need dental implants, please choose a professional regular hospital. If you have any questions, please contact
