Dental implants have the advantages of being strong, durable, comparable to real teeth, so they are accepted by many people who lack teeth, but there are also many people who do not understand dental implants, so after listening to some rumors, there are many concerns, so they dare not go to dental implants. Today, I will analyze the rumors about dental implants, so that everyone can rest assured that they can implant teeth.
Can't have a tooth implant immediately after tooth extraction?
If the patient's physical condition permits, it is possible to do immediate extraction, that is, implant the implant immediately after the tooth extraction. If the physical condition is good and there is no implant contraindication, after the tooth is extracted, it is equivalent to removing the source of infection, and the surgical wound can be completely cleaned, as long as it meets these conditions, it is usually possible to do immediate implantation.
Immediate implantation not only reduces the number of surgeries and shortens the treatment process, but also the trauma after surgery is small, and the patient's pain will be reduced, as long as it is handled well after surgery, the aesthetic effect can be achieved.
Must it hurt to have a tooth implant?
Now the oral medical technology is very well developed, so some oral implant surgery is a minimally invasive operation, the amount of bleeding after surgery is very small, even patients who need to implant multiple implants can be completed at one time.
Dental implants are anesthetic, so there will be no pain during the procedure, but there may be a slight swelling within a few days after the operation, but it will recover in 2-3 days.
Alveolar bone atrophy can not do dental implants?
After the tooth is lost, usually the alveolar bone will be absorbed and reconstructed, and after the alveolar bone is absorbed, there will be a narrowing and shortening phenomenon, at this time, bone graft surgery can be done through artificial bone meal.
By doing bone grafting, the height and width of the alveolar bone can be restored to a large extent, and the requirements of implant implantation can be met, which can not only reduce the pain, but also shorten the healing time of the wound, safe and reliable.
How many implants are missing?
Dental implants are mainly divided into: single implant, multiple implants, half mouth implants, and full mouth implants. This is mainly based on the patient's lack of teeth to determine the number of implants. For example, the upper jaw does not have a tooth, according to the quality of the alveolar bone bone, 4-6 can be implanted to restore half of the teeth.
Dental implants do not have a service life?
The service life of dental implants is limited, and the longest service life of dental implants can reach more than 50 years, but this is related to personal habits and maintenance methods. Usually after implanting the artificial tooth root, it is stable and does not cause problems, but if the crown of the implant is not well protected, it needs to be replaced.
After a dental implant, it is recommended to have an oral examination every six months, so that you can better understand the tooth situation and solve problems in time.
