Why do we need to replace missing teeth?
What are implants?
Anatomy of a dental implant
A dental implant designed toreplace a single tooth is composed of three parts: the titanium implant thatfuses with the jawbone; the abutment, which fits over the portion of the implantthat protrudes from the gum line; and the crown, which is created by aprosthodontist or restorative dentist and fitted onto the abutment for a naturalappearance.What guarantee do we have and what is the success rate?
Though no one can ever guarantee success, the procedure has been very welltested and has a success rate of 90-95% in general. Some implants have beenmonitored for more than 30 years. There will be a need for minor re-servicingfrom time to time even in successful implants. This is so especially for thedenture or fixed teeth which it carries.
Are You a candidate for dental implants?
- Existing Medical Conditions. If you can have routine dental treatment, youcan generally have an implant placed. While precautions are advisable forcertain conditions, patients with such chronic diseases as high blood pressureand diabetes are usually successful candidates for dental implant treatment.
- Gum Disease or Problem Teeth. Almost all implants placed in patients whohave lost their teeth to periodontal disease or decay have been successful.
- Currently Wearing Partials or Dentures. Implants can replace removablebridges or dentures, or they can be used to stabilize and secure the denture,making it much more comfortable.
- Smokers. Although smoking lowers the success rate of implants, it doesn'teliminate the possibility of getting them.
Are implants dangerous to health?
Can implants improve my appearance?
our appearanceand implants can likewise play a role to enhancing our appearance. Do discusswith your dentist as to
the cosmetic improvements which are possible as wellas the limitations of the procedures.
What are the advantages over conventional replacements?
Bridges usually involve sticking false teeth onto ourexisting teeth. This may involve filing down healthy teeth to act as retainerswhich may compromise the health of these teeth. Bridges can also only beprovided when there are sufficient strong remaining teeth. They are however apermanent replacement, although they are likely to need replacement every 10 to15 years.
Dentures are teeth attached to a plastic or metal plate. Theycan often be cumbersome as they have to be taken in and out every day and forcleaning. They may not always retain in place well if the shape of the gums andbone in the mouth is not appropriate.
Though bridges and dentures canserve us satisfactorily, Implants provide better support and usually results inmore comfortable and stable replacement teeth. It provides better chewingefficiency and allows us to have permanent fixed teeth without trimming our ownnatural teeth for support, or having to remove the teeth every day. Implantsalso slow down the shrinkage of our jawbone which occurs as a result of toothloss.

The implant consultation
The oralexamination
Your implant doctor will evaluate:
a. Thehealth of your gums and an overall oral cancer exam
b. The quantity andquality of the bone which is present where the teeth were previously extracted,or from where they will be extracted. The ridge where the teeth were previouslyextracted must have a minimal thickness of bone in order for an implant to havea high degree of success.
c. The health of any remaining teeth and if thereis any gum disease present.
The x-ray examination will helpdetermine:
a. If there is enough bone above the nerve which runs throughthe lower jaw - if you are needing to have lower implants placed.
b. Ifthere is enough bone below the sinus cavity of the upper jaw - if you areneeding implants placed in the back of the upper jaw.
The implantplacement procedure
Step 1. The implant is screwed or tappedinto a surgically prepared site. The gum tissue is closed over theimplant
Step 2. The implant remains under the gum for 3 to 6months
Step 3. (3 to 6 months later) The implant is exposed by removing asmall amount of gum tissue. An insert can be screwed or cemented down into theimplant.
Step 4. The secured insert can accommodate various attachmentsupon which overdentures, crowns, or bridges may attach.
MORE ABOUT IMPLANTS
What should I expect during surgery?
Theprocedure is normally carried out under local anaesthesia. For patients who areanxious, intravenous sedation is
also offered. During the surgery, the localanaesthesia and sedation given practically eliminates all pain. After the
surgery, there will be some discomfort, swelling or bruising but with theappropriate medication, it is usually not
unduly uncomfortable.
How do I care for implants?
Your overallhealth may affect the success rate of dental implants. Poor oral hygiene is abig reason why some implants
fail. It is important to floss and brush aroundthe fixtures at least twice a day, without metal objects. Your dentist
willgive you specific instructions on how to care for your new implants.
What is bone grafting associated with implants?
Successfulplacement of implants depends on the presence of bone of sufficient quality andquantity. This is not always
present in every patient. A lack of bone isusually related to local factors such as how the gums healed after tooth
extraction, rather than any general medical condition.
It waspreviously thought that in areas where there was insufficient bone it was notpossible to place implants. There
have now been great advances made inprocedures to increase the amount of available bone either by use of endogenous
bone (i.e. belonging to the patient) or a range of artificial substitutes ora combination of both. These grafting
techniques are simple and oftencarried out at the time of implant placement. For areas where there issignificant lack
of bone more complex grafting procedures can also becarried out to restore bone volume.
What are the known complications?
As in all surgicalprocedures there are reported complications. In Implant Dentistry these aremainly either due to afailure of the implant to integrate with the jawbone, or due to damage to adjacent anatomical structures. The
incidence ofthese complications is very small, and with careful pre-operative planning therisks are kept to an
absolute minimum. We take great care in assessing everycase very carefully, discussing with patients the different
options,likelihood of success and any related risks.
Where an implant does notintegrate with bone, this is sometimes due to a patient having an unfavourablebone pattern
or the presence of pre-existing pathology or infection. Often,the site can be left to heal for a few months and the
implant successfullyreinserted.
Occasionally implants can still fail after several years ofhaving worked well. There may be several reasons for this;
one of the mostcommon reason is overloading of implants due to either an insufficient number ofimplants in the first
place (the patient may have insisted on fewer implantsthan ideal to save costs), or too much stress being placed on
the implantson account of a patient’s habit of excessively grinding or clenching theirteeth. Again, a thorough
assessment and appropriate treatment plan isessential to minimise risks.
Imidiatelly implatation
Immediate loading of implants into fresh extraction sockets has theadvantage of decreasing the period of healing,
reducing the resorption ofthe alveolar bone, and achieving optimal esthetic results.
Implant supported Dentures
when a denturemoves around in the mouth. Over time the dental ridges required to support adenture will shrink
creating a growing problem keeping dentures inplace.
Implants can be utilized to hold the denture in place. There willbe a major improvement in fit and function.
Dental implants provide a stablefoundation for a denture for someone who has lost all of their natural teeth. Itis
estimated that implant supported dentures will restore nearly 90% ofchewing ability.
Lower dentures require 2 implants to properly hold themin place for normal function, one on each side.
Implants can also be place toadd to the stability of upper dentures.
Sinus lifting

(maxilla), whichincreases the likelihood of successful placement of dentalimplants.
Artificial bone grafting material is grafted into the bone(endosseous) below the floor of the maxillary sinus. In the
upper jaw theamount of bone is reduced by the presence of the sinus.
The choice oftechnique for sinus floor lifting is determined by the height of the alveolarridge,
The height of the bone ridge > 4 mm determines the lateral approachinto the sinus with reinforcement of the bone
defect and simultaneousimplantation.

Conservative dentistry
Conservative dentistry is concerned with the conservation of teeth in the mouth in their natural shape and colour. Nowadays the treatment of teeth caries became absolutely painless and with the use of the latest materials restorations can be made in a very aesthetic way restoring natural feature of the teeth. Materials used for fillings are produced in many varius colours in order to match the best shade to the patient's teeth.
