Guide to Dental Implants
Dental implants are considered one of the most effective and innovative solutions for replacing missing teeth. They play a significant role in restoring both the aesthetic and functional aspects of the mouth. This procedure involves placing an artificial root into the jawbone, which provides a strong support for the crown or artificial tooth that will be installed later. The implant is usually made of titanium, serving as a robust foundation for supporting the crown or artificial tooth.
After the implantation, it is essential to follow medical instructions to ensure the success of the procedure, including maintaining oral hygiene and visiting the dentist for regular check-ups
Practical Procedures for Dental Implants
Initial Evaluation
Visit the dentist for a comprehensive assessment of oral health.
Use X-rays to determine bone density and ensure there is sufficient space for the implant.
Treatment Planning
Develop a detailed treatment plan that includes the timing of the implant and any additional procedures required (such as bone grafting if necessary).
Preparation for Surgery
The patient may be asked to stop taking certain medications or supplements that could affect bleeding.
Ensure the patient is in good health before the procedure.
Implant Procedure
The procedure is performed under local or general anesthesia, depending on the case.
The dentist makes a small incision in the gum, drills a cavity in the jawbone, and inserts the titanium implant root.
Final Installation
After healing, an abutment is placed on the implant.
Accurate measurements are taken to create the appropriate dental crown, which is later fitted onto the abutment.
