What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are replacement tooth roots. Implants provide a strong foundation for fixed (permanent) or removable replacement teeth that are made to match your natural teeth.

What Are the Advantages of Dental Implants?

There are many advantages to dental implants, including:

• Improved appearance. Dental implants look and feel like your own teeth. And because they are designed to fuse with bone, they become permanent.
• Improved speech. With poor-fitting dentures, the teeth can slip within the mouth causing you to mumble or slur your words. Dental implants allow you to speak without the worry that teeth might slip.
• Improved comfort. Because they become part of you, implants eliminate the discomfort of removable dentures.
• Easier eating. Sliding dentures can make chewing difficult. Dental implants function like your own teeth, allowing you to eat your favorite foods with confidence and without pain.
• Improved self-esteem. Dental implants can give you back your smile and help you feel better about yourself.
• Improved oral health. Dental implants don’t require reducing other teeth, as a tooth-supported bridge does. Because nearby teeth are not altered to support the implant, more of your own teeth are left intact, improving long-term oral health. Individual implants also allow easier access between teeth, improving oral hygiene.
• Implants are very durable and will last many years. With good care, many implants last a lifetime.
• Removable dentures are just that; removable. Dental implants eliminate the embarrassing inconvenience of removing dentures, as well as the need for messy adhesives to keep them in place.

How Successful Are Dental Implants?

Success rates of dental implants vary, depending on where in the jaw the implants are placed but, in general, dental implants have a success rate of up to 98%. With proper care (see below), implants can last a lifetime.

Can Anyone Get Dental Implants?

In most cases, anyone healthy enough to undergo a routine dental extraction or oral surgery can be considered for a dental implant. Patients should have healthy gums and enough bone to hold the implant. They also must be committed to good oral hygiene and regular dental visits. Heavy smokers, people suffering from uncontrolled chronic disorders — such as diabetes or heart disease — or patients who have had radiation therapy to the head/neck area need to be evaluated on an individual basis. If you are considering implants, talk to your dentist to see if they are right for you.

What Is Involved in Getting a Dental Implant?

First appointment:

• Overall health examination for oral health conditions.
• Take a CT Cone Beam X-Rays at the office for doctors’ studies.
• The doctors use NOBEL CLINICIAN – surgical guidance software to perform virtual 3D surgery on the computer, to select the most suitable location and implant placement size, then establish a final treatment plan after discussion with the client.
• General dental cleaning before implant placement.
• Taking images and impression for study cast.
• (Making Surgical guide for All-On-4 and All-On-6 for complete edentulous arch cases)

Second appointment: Implant placement surgery (Usually takes 15’/implant thus a maximum of 3h/case for complex cases requiring tooth removal, bone grafting and implant placement for 2 jaws)

• Anaesthetist’s support is available to complete surgery for 2 jaws in one appointment.
• A temporary crown or denture will be placed after the surgery
• If needed, patients can rest at ICU before leaving

 Third/fourth appointment: Re-examination and taking care of Implants

• (Crown of Implants on second day if immediate prosthesis is required)

How Painful Are Dental Implants?

Most people who have received dental implants say that there is very little discomfort involved in the procedure. Local anesthesia can be used during the procedure, and most patients report that implants involve less pain than a tooth extraction.

After the dental implant, mild soreness can be treated with over-the-counter pain medications
