March 13, 2014 Reading time ~ 2 min Number of reads: 31232

The arguments in favor of implantation are plentiful: from the unnecessity of grinding neighboring teeth to the lifelong results of the procedure. But making a choice among implant systems is not an easy task.

Methods of implantation Classic protocol. It takes place in 2 stages. Place the implant: incise the mucosal flap, implant, suture the wound. Do osseointegration. Time for the procedure on upper teeth is 6 months, for lower teeth - 4 months. At the 2nd stage, the mucosa over the implant is incised, the abutment is fixed, the gingival margin is formed, and the prosthesis is placed Single-phase protocol. Single-phase protocol. The operation is minimally invasive: mucosal incisions and wound closure are not made. The implant is implanted through a small puncture. On the 2nd day after implantation, a temporary crown made of metal-plastic is placed. Th…

Vaccination against covid-19 and dental treatment: are there contraindications?

In 2021, the coronavirus pandemic is still a major human problem. New strains appear, people continue to get sick. The state takes measures to protect citizens. One of these measures was universal vaccination against Covid-19.

The impact of the coronavirus on the systems and organs of the human body has not yet been fully studied. Scientists and medics, of course, put forward various theories, but it will take years of study to confirm them.

The same is true for the vaccine.

Our patients ask a lot of questions related to dental treatment during the pandemic: whether it is possible to come to the clinic with mild symptoms of acute respiratory viral infections, whether it is possible to start implantation after vaccination against covid-19, how the coronavirus will affect rehabilitation after dental surgeries, and much more.

In this article, with the help of an experienced implant surgeon of our clinic, Nesterenko Alexey Pav…

What are dentures without chipping and why are they preferred?

The most common way to replace missing teeth is with a bridge. Except that the supporting teeth have to be ground down for it. And before that they are depulped (nerve is removed). There are 2 problems here:

Psychological. It is not easy to make up your mind to go to the dentist, and the prospect of nerve removal and teeth grinding will make many people postpone the visit for a long time.

Dental. Doctors don't like to depulp teeth. The reasons are several. The pulp is full of nerve endings and blood vessels. They make the tooth alive. The blood supplies nutrients, and in return, the pulp produces replacement dentin. Because of this, teeth have the ability to repair this layer when it is damaged. Nerve endings signal a problem with the tooth, so tooth decay, for example, can be diagnosed in its early stages. Without the pulp, nutrition is not supplied, and tissues are not renewed. A "dead tooth" becomes very fragile. It is difficult to detect infe…

Piezosurgery machine

Reading time ~ 2 min Number of readings: 2668

Piezotome is a progressive equipment for surgery with ultrasound. The principle of its operation is based on local destructive effect on bone tissue ultrasound radiation.

How the piezotome works

Ultrasonic device structurally consists of a "scalpel" with nozzles and a regulating unit, which sets the necessary frequency of oscillations to achieve the desired effect. The frequency range of the equipment is wide - 10-29000 Hz, with an amplitude of vibrations in the range of 60-200 microns. The power and frequency are selected by the dentist depending on the surgical objectives. This contributes to effective work with bone tissues of different structure and density.

Artificial gum – what is it and does it need to be done?

Reading time ~ 4 min Number of readings: 19642

Restoration of dentition solves not only functional problems, replacing lost teeth with artificial ones. Prosthodontists attach equal importance to the aesthetic component of prosthetics. Functionality and aesthetics are combined by the use of artificial gum.

Most often such a design is used in the manufacture of removable prostheses. Crowns are fixed in the base, creating a complete imitation of the gum and teeth in it. The material for such products are polymers: acrylic, nylon, AcryFree. The latter two are hypoallergenic, but acrylic can cause an allergic reaction. The teeth on the artificial gum transfer part of the load to the base, but this distribution is uneven. Adequate distribution is possible only with prosthetics on implants.

Gum problems can be expressed in different ways during implantation:

Tooth extraction using ultrasound

Reading time ~ 3 min Number of readings: 7024

Even quality oral care does not eliminate the possibility of trauma or other factor that may require tooth extraction. The need to pull it out with forceps or saw it into pieces with a milling machine for fragmentary removal causes unpleasant associations, becomes a reason to postpone going to the dentist.

The innovation of 2017-2018 was the use of ultrasound equipment in dentistry - piezotome, for tooth extraction. Previously, ultrasound was used for the removal of dental calculus, treatment of periodontal disease.

Equipment

Piezotome includes a block-regulator, which sets the parametric parameters (frequency of oscillation, amplitude), and ultrasonic scalpel with interchangeable attachments. Depending on the quality, structure, density of bone tissue, the surgeon sets the frequency in the range of 10-290000 Hz, amplitude 60-200 microns.

Diş ağrısı - herkesin tahammül edemeyeceği ve kural olarak uzun süre dayanamayacağı en güçlü rahatsızlıklardan biridir. Diş ağrısı, diş hekimlerinin en ateşli "rakibinin" bile hastaneye gitmesine neden olur, hatta bir süre için bir kişi sıradan ağrı kesiciler veya halk ilaçları ile durumla başa çıkmaya çalışsa bile. Gerçekten de, ağrı ancak nedenini ortadan kaldırarak tamamen ortadan kaldırılabilir ve dişi evde tedavi etmek imkansızdır.

Diş neden ağrıyor?

Diş ağrısının en yaygın nedenleri diş çürüğü, pulpitis veya periodontitistir. Ağrı sendromuna kökü çevreleyen dokularda büyüyen bir kist de neden olabilir.

Okuma süresi ~ 5 dakika Okuma sayısı: 30312

Koronavirüsle mücadelede vücut savunmasını kaybeder ve bu da mevcut kronik hastalıkların alevlenmesine yol açar. Dişlerdeki veya diş çevresi dokulardaki patolojik süreçler de istisna değildir. Koronavirüsün diş ağrısı, periodontal hastalık, kök kistleri ve granülomlara neden olması, bağışıklığın azalmasının bir sonucudur.

Angiogenesis Foundation, Cambridge, Massachusetts (angiogenesis üzerine çalışan bir kuruluş) başkanı bir röportajında SARS-CoV-2'nin ACE2 protein reseptörüne bağlanarak onu daha da bulaşıcı hale getirdiğini belirtmiştir. Sadece akciğer dokusunu değil, aynı zamanda sinir liflerini, endoteli de etkiler, bu nedenle diş etlerindeki kan damarları zarar görür. McGill Üniversitesi'nden (Kanada) araştırmacılar da aynı şeyi söylüyor. [1]
