How is the Dental Implant Placement Procedure?
- Evaluation and Diagnosis: We conduct a personalized study with X-rays and 3D scans.
- Implant Placement: Through a minimally invasive surgery, we insert the implant into the bone.
- Osteointegration Period: A waiting period of 3 to 6 months is required for the implant to fuse with the bone.
- Placement of the Dental Crown: Once integrated, the final prosthesis is placed, tailored to the patient’s bite and aesthetics.
Types of Dental Implants
There are various types of dental implants depending on each patient’s needs and bone health. The main types include:
- Endosteal Implants: These are the most common and are placed within the maxillary or mandibular bone, functioning as an artificial root onto which the dental prosthesis is fixed.
- Subperiosteal Implants: These are placed on top of the bone but under the gum, recommended for those with insufficient bone density who cannot undergo bone grafts.
- Zygomatic Implants: Designed for patients with significant bone resorption in the upper jaw, as they anchor in the zygomatic bone without the need for grafts.
- Immediate Load Implants: These allow the placement of a temporary prosthesis on the same day as the surgery, avoiding long waiting periods and providing a quick, functional solution.
- All-on-4 and All-on-6 Implants: These are an alternative for full rehabilitations, allowing a complete dental arch to be secured with just 4 or 6 implants, reducing the number of interventions.
Price of Dental Implants
The cost of dental implants can vary depending on the type of implant, the material used, and the technology applied in the treatment. Advanced techniques such as computer-guided surgery or immediate load implants can affect the final price. However, beyond the cost, it is essential to ensure that you receive quality treatment to guarantee safe and long-lasting results.
Latest Advances in Dental Implantology
Dentistry has evolved with innovations that improve treatment precision and reduce recovery times. Some of the most advanced techniques include:
- Immediate Load Implants: These allow for the restoration of dental functionality and aesthetics in a single day.
- Computer-Guided Surgery: Uses 3D digital planning to place implants with maximum precision and safety.
- Zygomatic Implants: Provide an effective solution for those with severe bone loss in the upper jaw, without the need for grafts.
Care and Maintenance of Implants
To ensure the long-term success of implants, it is essential to follow certain guidelines:
- Maintain thorough oral hygiene by brushing after every meal and using dental floss or oral irrigators.
- Attend regular check-ups with the dentist to assess the stability of the implant.
- Avoid harmful habits such as smoking, which can compromise the osteointegration of the implant and reduce its durability.
