What are dental implants?
A dental implant is a procedure in which one or more lost teeth are restored, regardless of the reason for their loss. This treatment consists of two phases: the first is a surgical phase where the implant is placed in the mouth, and the second is when the implant is brought into function through a restoration, whether it be a crown or a bridge.
In the surgical phase, the most important factor is the presence of sufficient bone to accommodate the desired implant. To assess whether the amount of bone is adequate, a clinical examination and a 3D radiographic examination will be conducted.
1. Are you suitable for dental implants?
In the clinical examination, it is assessed that the patient does not have untreated systemic diseases, depressed immune systems, or is a smoker. If these factors are under control, there is no contraindication for the treatment.
However, if the patient wishes to be a candidate for dental implants, they must be evaluated by a physician and have their systemic diseases in order. If the patient is a smoker, they must quit smoking at least 3 months before implant placement and for 9 months following the placement.
For the 3D radiographic examination, a specifically designed test for implant placement is utilized. This allows virtual surgery on a computer, providing information on bone thickness, height, and the location of nerves and arteries in the planned procedure area, eliminating any uncertainties.
The result is a safer, more predictable, and successful procedure.
If there is insufficient bone, necessary precautions are taken, and the possibility of generating bone through maxillary sinus lifts, bone grafts, or other regenerative techniques can be discussed.
