Dental Implants: Tips and Recommendations - Virtual Library

Oral Rehabilitation

Dental implants offer a number of advantages and benefits in the oral rehabilitation of edentulous patients. The loss of one or more teeth has an impact on aesthetics and especially on the oral and general health of the patient.

The professional's evaluation must be clinical and radiographic, to determine the quality and quantity of the maxillary bone, as well as some auxiliary examinations to determine the general health of the patient.

Dental Implants Post-Op Instructions

Dental Implant

Before starting the surgical procedure to place dental implants, the dentist must make a series of recommendations to the patient. These recommendations ensure an optimal healing process.

Currently, surgical techniques ensure good results, but the patient must collaborate with the post-operative process. Some of these recommendations are: rest, hygiene, food, etc.

Patient Prevention: Dental Implant Failures

TMJ

One of the great advantages of using dental implants is their stability and support, thanks to their osseointegration process. But these qualities can be affected for several reasons.

The patient must be informed before performing the surgery, about the care they should have after the surgical procedure, regarding their diet and hygiene, thus avoiding serious consequences.


Thanks to the Advances Dental Artistry channel, which offers us important advice on the care we must take to avoid failures in our dental implants.

What's the Difference Between Dental Implants and Bridges?

Dental Implants

Oral rehabilitation has several alternatives and each one has advantages and disadvantages. That is why a good evaluation by the dentist is important.

Dental implants have a great advantage over other alternatives, and it is thanks to the stability obtained by osseointegration. Dental bridges find support on natural teeth.

Problems associated with dental implants

Dental Implants

While the dental implant procedure itself has a very high success rate, there is still a small percentage of patients who experience problems. Some of these problems are minor, and some are much more serious.

The success of a dental implant procedure is often related to:

1.- The dentist or surgeon’s skill
2.- The quality and quantity of the bone available in the patient
3.- The cleanliness of the materials used


4.- The patient’s healing ability
5.- The patient’s oral hygiene habits

The best way to reduce the complications of dental implant surgery is to only receive treatment from trusted, qualified, and competent dentists and oral surgeons. Also, the patient must practice excellent oral hygiene to avoid infection. Here is a list of some of the potential problems associated with dental implant surgery:

Infection

Infection in the surrounding bone and gums is probably the most common complication experienced by patients. Infection can happen as a result of a contaminated implant, a pre-existing infection, non-sterile techniques, or poor healing ability. Sometimes, infection occurs months or even years after the procedure.

Failed Osseointegration

Osseointegration is the firm anchoring of a dental implant into the bone around it. Sometimes the bone does not fuse around the threads of the implant, causing the implant to become uncomfortable, loose, or even come out completely.

This, however, is not a common problem, since the dentist or oral surgeon will usually x-ray the patient’s mouth before the procedure in order to determine which parts of the jawbone are dense enough to successfully hold the implant in place.

If osseointegration is unsuccessful the first time around, then the dental implant procedure can be attempted again later, once the patient has fully healed.

Damage to Surrounding Areas

Adjacent teeth, tissues, and nerves can sometimes be negatively affected by dental implant surgery, too. However, in most cases the dentist is able to identify potentially problematic areas by examining x-rays or CT scans. A proper surgical approach is then planned to find the ideal location and angle, minimizing the risk for complications.

But problems can still occur, even after all of the proper precautions are taken. For example, the jawbone can fracture when pressure is applied during the implant placement. Also, the sinus cavity can be perforated if the dental implant is placed improperly or if it is the incorrect length.

Another possible damage site is the nerve that runs through the lower jawbone. Sometime this nerve can be damaged during surgery, and other times the implant itself may be placed on top of the nerve, causing pain and numbness. If symptoms persist, then the implant will most likely need to be removed.

Post-Surgical Bleeding

A minor amount of blood is considered normal for the first day or two following the surgery. However, excessive bleeding or the appearance of blood after the initial two days is usually not normal. It’s best to contact your dentist immediately if this occurs.

Rejection by the Body

It is quite uncommon, but is still a possibility, that the body will consider the implant a harmful foreign object and will proceed to reject its presence in the mouth.

What is Peri-implantitis and how do we prevent it? 3D video

Smile Desing

Peri-implantitis is the inflammatory and infectious process of the tissues that surround the dental implant, even leading to the loss of the bone that supports it.

Professional evaluation is important to determine peri-implantitis, but there are signs and symptoms that the patient may notice and that motivate him to see the specialist.

Among the risk factors for the presence of peri-implantitis we can name: bacterial microbiology, occlusal overload, poor oral hygiene, smoking, gum condition.

Prevention of peri-implantitis - 3D Video

Dental Implants

Peri-implantitis is an inflammatory and infectious process, which affects the tissues that are involved in supporting dental implants. The dental implant is osseointegrated (union of the bone with the dental implant).

In initial stages, inflammation occurs without compromising the bone. This process is called peri-implant mucositis. When the disease progresses it takes the name of peri-implantitis.

Prevention is the best way to avoid peri-implantitis, thus ensuring the permanence and stability of the dental implant. Let's see this interesting 3D video.
