What material is good for dental implants?

The most commonly used ceramic materials are: alumina ceramics and glass ceramics. The chemical stability and biocompatibility of ceramic implants are good, and their compressive strength and hardness are also very high, but ceramic implants have an obvious defect, that is, they are brittle and easy to bend, in order to overcome the brittleness of ceramic materials, ceramic implants are rarely used alone in various countries, but titanium metal is used as the core of the implant, and the component structure of bone is simulated on its surface, and the ceramic material is compounded by a special method, that is, a metal-ceramic composite implant is formed.

However, the application of composite implants is limited due to the fact that the bond strength between metal and ceramic is always a difficult problem to solve.

As for dental implant materials, as long as they have the following properties, they are ideal dental implant materials

Clause. 1. Good histocompatibility: After the material is implanted, it has a good affinity relationship with the soft and hard tissues and body fluids of the body.

Clause. 2. Good resistance to disinfection and sterilization: the implant must be strictly disinfected and sterilized before implantation, so it is required that the implant materials used will not be denatured due to high pressure, high temperature, immersion and fumigation of various disinfection liquids and gases, etc., and will not retain residual disinfection substances to ensure the safety and success of implant surgery.

Clause. 3. Good mechanical properties: good processing performance can meet the needs of morphological design, occlusion is the basic function of teeth, and the implant can bear static and dynamic chewing bite force, so as not to break, deform and wear in the long process of use.

Clause. 4. Good biological properties: when the hard tissue and body fluids are in contact, the mechanical properties of the material are similar to those of bone tissue, so as to avoid excessive stress concentration at the interface with bone tissue when the implant is stressed.

The quality of dental implant materials has a direct impact on the effect of dental implants, implants must be strictly disinfected and sterilized before implantation, and the implant materials will not be denatured due to high pressure, high temperature, soaking fumigation of various disinfection liquids and gases, ultraviolet and radiation irradiation, etc., and will not retain residual disinfectant substances, so as to ensure the safety and success of implant surgery.

Clause. 1. The material of the implant: The material of the implant is now pure titanium, which has good biocompatibility and relatively high hardness, and is not easy to collapse porcelain.

However, there are many brands of implants, and it is recommended to choose the right brand according to your own conditions. Clause.

2. The material of the dental implant crown: the material of the dental implant crown is currently better than the porcelain crown, the specific situation is as follows: the material of the porcelain crown is also divided into many kinds, including cobalt-chrome alloy porcelain tooth material, pure titanium porcelain tooth, all-ceramic tooth, different porcelain crown materials, of course, the effect is not the same, and the time of use is also different.

Before dental implant surgery, please clean your mouth, communicate well with the plastic surgeon, women should avoid menstruation and lactation, and after surgery, you need to try to avoid eating some hard and cold food, do not do strenuous exercise, develop good oral cleaning habits, and do a good job of nursing to ensure that good results are maintained for a long time.
