Gum shaper for implantation

Implant prosthetics is the most physiological way to restore missing teeth. The essence of the method is that an artificial tooth root is implanted into the gum, on top of which an orthopedic structure (crown, bridge) is placed. But in order to make the prosthetic system look natural, fit tightly to the gum, firmly fixed to the implant, special suprastructures are used - gum shaper and abutment.

The gum shaper is not always placed during implantation. It is not used in case of complete jaw adentia, when one-stage technologies with immediate loading with a prosthesis are used to restore the dentition. Installation of this suprastructure is necessary in a two-stage protocol. Without it, it is not possible to achieve a correct gingival contour so that the denture looks natural and aesthetic.

In one-stage techniques, the placement of this element is more often skipped. In these cases, one-piece implants are usually used, which are immedi…

And if numbness does not go away after implantation on the upper jaw or lower jaw after 5 hours - it is better to call the doctor who performed the surgery.

Why numbness can occur in different parts

In order that the patient does not feel pain during implantation (as with tooth extraction or any other operation), local anesthesia is made. An injection with a special agent that numbs the tissue in the area of future surgical intervention. Usually paresthesia lasts 3-5 hours, if sensitivity begins to return, the anesthesiologist may decide to add some mor…

Is it possible to eat immediately after dental implantation

Immediately after surgery, you can not eat. The rule is due to several reasons:

Food can get into the wound (fraught with complications of the postoperative period); With anesthesia still in effect, it is easy to bite the cheeks, lips, tongue. Numb tissue will not signal whether the food is hot or cold. It is impossible to assess the correct temperature of the food: you can burn yourself, get injure…

Let's talk at once, that according to the long-term statistics it is fixed, rejection of the implant happens only in 1-2% of cases from the total number. And the reasons why dental implants fall out are sufficiently studied to avoid this even at the stage of planning prosthetics on dental implants. But there are a number of factors that are beyond the doctor's control. The patient is solely responsible for the implant falling out.

Zirconia dental implants: advantages and features

Until recently, medical titanium was the only material for implants. Pins made of this metal and its alloys worked well, but unfortunately were not suitable for people with allergies to certain metals. Sometimes patients refused titanium implants for aesthetic reasons. In recent times, they have been joined by adherents of holistic medicine.

Dentists have offered an alternative to the titanium rod - a zirconium implant. Although the first constructions made of ceramic appeared in the late 80s of the last century, they became widespread in the last 10-15 years. In the USA their use was approved only in 2011, in Europe - a little earlier, in 2005.

Advantages and disadvantages

Zirconium implants for teeth are hypoallergenic. This is their main advantage. If a patient develops an allergy to titanium alloy, it will not be limited to itching and redness. The pin will most likely be rejected. With a zirconium implant, there is no need to fear this. Lasīt vairāk

Implant prosthetics in case of complete absence of teeth

Adentia is what dentistry calls the loss of all teeth. Teeth are lost as a result of trauma, eating habits, and poor hygiene. As a result, 25% of the population after the age of 60 suffer from missing teeth on one or even two jaws.

Until recently, the only solution to complete tooth loss was removable prosthetics. In recent years, full implant dentures have become increasingly common. Why do patients choose implants? The main reason: only implants perform the same functions as natural teeth and look even better than them.

Types of prosthetics for missing teeth

Removable dentures are a quick and relatively inexpensive way of restoring teeth. But they have their disadvantages:

They restorechewing function only by 70%Food is not sufficiently chewed, this provokes GI diseases. They do not distribute the load evenlySome areas are more involved, some less. The pressure on the gums is different, it affects the relief of the …
