What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone beneath the gums. Once in place, they allow your dentist to mount replacement teeth onto them. Because implants fuse to your jawbone, they provide stable support for artificial teeth, such as crowns, bridges, and dentures.
Benefits of Dental Implants:
- Natural Look and Feel: Implants mimic the look and feel of natural teeth and are designed to fuse with bone, becoming permanent.
- Improved Speech and Comfort: Unlike poorly fitted dentures, implants do not slip, allowing you to speak and eat with confidence.
- Durability: Implants are very durable and can last many years; with good care, many implants last a lifetime.
- Oral Health Enhancement: Unlike a tooth-supported bridge, dental implants don’t require reducing other teeth, as nearby teeth are not altered to support the implant.
Advanced Dental Implants:
All-on-4 Implants
The All-on-4 treatment concept is a cost-efficient, graftless solution that provides patients with a fixed full-arch prosthesis on the day of surgery. This technique uses four implants, with the rear implants angled to take advantage of existing bone structure. It is especially beneficial for patients who have low bone density or volume.
All-on-6 Implants
All-on-6 implants are similar to All-on-4 but use six implants instead, providing additional support. This option is typically recommended for patients who require more extensive reconstruction. The extra two implants offer greater stability and are often suggested for patients with sufficient bone density.
Dental Implant Process at Align Polyclinic
01
Free Initial Consultation
The first step in the dental implant process is a comprehensive consultation. During this appointment, your dentist will review your medical and dental history, examine your oral health thoroughly, and use imaging technologies such as X-rays or CT scans to assess the density and volume of your jawbone. This information is crucial to determine if you are a good candidate for dental implants and to plan the placement of the implants precisely.
02
Treatment Planning
Based on the findings from the initial consultation, your dentist will create a customized treatment plan. This plan will outline the steps of your implant procedure, including any preliminary treatments such as tooth extractions or bone grafting if there is insufficient bone to support the implants.
03
Pre-Surgical Preparation
If necessary, pre-surgical treatments like bone grafts or periodontal therapy will be performed to prepare your mouth for implant surgery. This phase ensures that your jawbone is healthy and strong enough to secure the implants
04
Implant Placement Surgery
The actual placement of the dental implants is a surgical procedure that is usually performed under local anesthesia. During the surgery, small titanium posts are inserted into the bone where teeth are missing. These metal posts serve as tooth root substitutes. Once the implants are placed, a period of healing is required for the implants to osseointegrate, or fuse, with the jawbone—a process that can take several months
05
Healing and Osseointegration
After the implants are placed, a healing period follows during which the jawbone grows around and bonds with the surface of the dental implant—a process known as osseointegration. This phase is critical for providing a strong foundation for your new teeth. Temporary dentures or crowns may be placed to allow you to eat and function normally while waiting for the site to heal.
06
Abutment Placement
Once osseointegration is complete, an additional minor surgery may be required to place an abutment, which will hold the crown or artificial tooth. This procedure is typically quick and often only requires local anesthesia.
07
Fabrication of the Prosthesis
After your gums heal around the abutment, impressions of your mouth will be taken, which will be used to create your custom artificial teeth (crowns, bridges, or dentures). These teeth can be designed to match your natural teeth in color, shape, and size for a seamless appearance.
08
Final Prosthesis Placement
The final step is the placement of the prosthesis. The custom-made crown, bridge, or denture will be attached to the abutments. Adjustments may be made during this appointment to ensure the new teeth fit comfortably and function like natural teeth
09
Follow-Up and Maintenance
After the completion of the process, regular follow-up visits are necessary to monitor the implants and ensure that your bite remains healthy and the implants are functioning well. Proper oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups are crucial to the long-term success of dental implants
