Patients ask if there will be problems with dental implants?

Artificial dental implants have high technical requirements for doctors, and the equipment and implant materials used are imported, so artificial dental implants are relatively high, but compared with other restoration methods, artificial dental implants have significant advantages, so it is very worthwhile to invest in your own health. Specifically, you can go to the hospital to consult a doctor.

Under normal use, there is little chance of dental implant problems, but if the oral hygiene is not good, periodontal lesions, and frequent biting of hard objects may directly affect it. In use, be sure to guard against periodontal disease and maintain good periodontal hygiene. Madam, if your question is selected by our experts, you can receive a free dental examination from our hospital.

Natural in appearance, after the implant is successfully implanted, it is difficult to distinguish the real from the fake from the other teeth, because its shape and structure are modeled after natural teeth. Dental implants have a structure similar to that of real teeth, and are directly inserted into the alveolar bone, so it has better stability than other restoration methods, and the sense of realism is stronger when eating. The service life of general restorations is mostly one or two decades, while the service life of dental implants can reach 40 years.

Periodontal lesions, dental implants themselves are dentures, and will not cause caries and other problems like real teeth, but if it is in use, periodontal hygiene is not good, and periodontal disease occurs, which will directly threaten its stability and use. Frequent biting of hard objects, dental implants do not have periodontal ligament like real teeth, if you use and eat normally, there will generally be no problems, if you often bite hard objects, do not pay attention to protection, the possibility of damage will be greater.

Although dental implants are minor surgeries, they are also contraindicated for certain local conditions, such as various inflammations of soft and hard tissues in the oral cavity; Various benign and malignant tumors in the oral cavity; Abnormal occlusion and malocclusion.

Deformity and limited mouth opening. Bone insorption and atrophy of gum bone leads to insufficient bone mass, and the upper jaw may penetrate into the maxillary sinus and the lower jaw into the mandibular canal during implant placement, which are not suitable for direct implantation, and can be implanted at the same time or postponed under the condition of bone grafting to improve bone mass.

Chronic wasting diseases such as tuberculosis, diabetes, hematologic diseases; Suffering from hypertension, heart disease, cerebrovascular and other diseases; Those who suffer from mental illness and unstable psychological quality; Those who are addicted to drugs, alcohol, severe mental weakness, and poor physical fitness; All of these conditions are contraindicated for implant surgery.

From the perspective of general condition, it is necessary to be an adult with good general condition and physical and mental health, or a young person with well-developed bones and teeth, and no organic diseases and osteoporosis of various organs. If you have the above symptoms, you should not have dental implants.

There are some requirements in terms of local conditions, such as implant surgery needs to be carried out 3 months after the tooth extraction, and there is no obvious inflammation of the oral soft tissue, and the bone shape and quality of the gum are required to be good.

The best implant success rate can still be achieved, the requirements must be your alveolar bone, periodontal and general condition to meet the conditions for implantation, and the incisors also involve an aesthetic problem, so you should carefully choose an implant doctor.

In principle, dental implants do not have too many restrictions on physical conditions, but if your physical condition is poor, the success rate of dental implants will not be high.

Under what circumstances should dental implants be carefully selected?

In principle, dental implants do not have many restrictions on physical conditions, as long as the heart, blood pressure, and blood sugar are stable, and routine surgery is allowed, the conditions for dental implant surgery can also be met. However, the following 5 conditions will affect bone metabolism or osseointegration, which will greatly increase the failure rate of dental implants, so it is not suitable for immediate dental implants. "It is not absolutely impossible to implant teeth, and it is necessary to go through ** and control the condition before implanting teeth."

1. Osteoporosis.

Osteoporosis has an impact on the success rate of dental implants, mainly because it is difficult for artificial tooth roots to be successfully fixed in the alveolar bone, resulting in failure in the middle. Patients with severe osteoporosis are not suitable for dental implants due to severe bone decalcification. However, patients with mild osteoporosis can undergo dental implants after rigorous preoperative evaluation, improvement and control of their condition.

2. Severe diabetes and other systemic diseases.

Patients with severe diabetes mellitus have poor healing ability of alveolar bone and soft tissues, and it is difficult to complete osseointegration, so dental implants are not recommended. If the blood sugar can be controlled below 7 and it remains stable for a period of time before surgery, dental implants can be performed, and the success rate is also high.

3. Smoking, drinking and poor eating habits.

Light smoking has little effect on the success rate of dental implants, but moderate and heavy smoking does. Long-term smoking, oral blood vessels narrow, resulting in a decrease in blood **, poor soft tissue healing, affected the service life of implant nails, and a high risk of failure. Therefore, it is recommended that people who have smoking habits should quit smoking before dental implants.

Drinking alcohol generally does not affect the success rate of dental implants, but alcohol abuse does. Eating sour and hard foods is a bad eating habit and can also cause damage to dental implants.

4. Patients who are receiving radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

Osteosintegration cannot occur due to the destruction of osteoblasts by drugs. Patients with endocrine diseases that affect metabolism, such as parathyroid disease, do not have normal bone metabolism. Patients with night grinding can only be implanted after **.

In case of acute infection such as cold and fever, the patient's resistance is poor, and dental implants need to be postponed.

5. Women in a specific period.

Dental implants are not recommended for women who are menstruating, pregnant, or breastfeeding with severe decalcification, menopausal women's bone conditions are more variable, and osseointegration may not be possible, as well as in women taking estrogen (such as anti-decalcification drugs).

1. The patient's own physical constitution should be good. Dental implants are surgery to restore the soft tissues of the oral cavity. Therefore, the first step is to have good oral hygiene.

If you have diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, etc., you need to postpone surgery, and if you have periodontal disease, you must do ** before you can get a dental implant. Good physical condition is a must for dental implant conditions.

2. The patient's gum bone must be suitable for dental implants, and it must have a certain width and height. After jaw and alveolar bone surgery, trauma or tooth extraction, the bone defect has been recovered, and the bone shape and quality of the implant bed are good. Because the length of the nail is 10-14 mm, and the diameter is mm.

If the gum bone is not wide and tall enough, bone grafting should be done before implantation is considered.

3. Everyone's bone quality is different, some people have too loose bone layer, and dental implants are adults who are in good condition and have physical and mental health, bone and tooth development has been finalized, artificial dental implants cannot be closely combined with alveolar bone, and dental implants are bound to fail. In this case, the patient has no choice but to abandon artificial dental implants and use traditional dentures for restoration.
