Dental Implants

• A dental implant (also known as an endosseous
  implant or fixture) is a surgical component that
  interfaces with the bone of the jaw or skull to
  support a dental prosthesis such as a crown,
  bridge, denture, facial prosthesis or to act as
  an orthodontic anchor. The basis for modern
  dental implants is a biologic process called
  osseointegration where materials, such as
  titanium, form an intimate bond to bone. The
  implant fixture is first placed, so that it is
  likely to osseointegrate, then a dental
  prosthetic is added. A variable amount of healing
  time is required for osseointegration before
  either the dental prosthetic (a tooth, bridge or
  denture) is attached to the implant or an
  abutment is placed which will hold a dental
  prosthetic.

Do I need Dental Implant?

• If you are missing one or more teeth, then you
  may be a candidate for dental implants. A
  candidate for dental implants should be in a good
  state of health. You should inform your dentist
  of any systemic illness or condition that may
  adversely affect healing. Conditions such as
  diabetes may not prevent you from having dental
  implant surgery provided that the disease is
  being treated successfully. Any concerns that you
  may have regarding your medical history should be
  discussed with your dentist at the consultation
  appointment. A candidate for dental implants
  should have enough high quality bone to support
  the implant(s).
• When a tooth is lost, the surrounding bone begins
  to change and may slowly disappear. This slow
  process is called resorption. If the amount of
  resorption is slight, then a dental implant may
  be placed into the bone. However, if the amount
  of resorption is too great, there may be
  insufficient bone available to support the
  implant and bone grafting may be required prior
  to implant surgery. At the consultation
  appointment, a complete examination will be
  performed and you will be informed of the
  condition of your bone and the options you have
  with regard to dental implants. Also if you are
  an inveterate paan or paan parag eater, less than
  good at maintaining oral hygeine,you shouldnt
  consider implants.

Dental Implant Surgery

• Dental implant surgery requires prior detailed
  planning. Study of vital structures in the bone.
  This is done with the help of X-rays. Some times
  dental implant can be done immediately after
  extraction and in same cases we have to wait for
  few month for bone formation. Dental implant
  procedure is usually done under local
  anaesthesia. Flap is raised and a pilot hole is
  made in the bone. Before placing implant in the
  bone drilling of bone done in several separate
  steps. Then the implant is screwed into proper
  place. Special instruments and machines are used
  for placing Dental implant.

Major and Minor Bone Grafting

• Over a period of time, the jawbone associated
  with missing teeth is reabsorbed. This often
  leaves a condition in which there is poor quality
  and quantity of bone not suitable for placement
  of dental implants. Today, we have the ability to
  grow bone where needed. This gives us the
  opportunity to place implants of proper length
  and width.
• Bone grafting can repair implant sites with
  inadequate bone structure due to previous
  extractions, gum disease or injuries. Sinus bone
  grafts are also performed to replace bone in the
  posterior upper jaw. In addition, special
  membranes may be utilized that dissolve under the
  gum and protect the bone graft and encourage bone
  regeneration. This is called guided bone
  regeneration or guided tissue regeneration. Major
  bone grafts are typically performed to repair
  defects of the jaws.

Sinus Lift Procedure

• The maxillary sinuses are behind your cheeks and
  on top of the upper teeth. Some of the roots of
  the natural upper teeth extend up into the
  maxillary sinuses. When these upper teeth are
  removed, there is often just a thin wall of bone
  separating the maxillary sinus and the mouth.
  Dental implants need bone to hold them in place.
  When the sinus wall is very thin, it is
  impossible to place dental implants in this bone.
• There is a solution and its called a sinus graft
  or sinus lift graft. The dental implant surgeon
  enters the sinus from where the upper teeth used
  to be. The sinus membrane is then lifted upward
  and donor bone is inserted into the floor of the
  sinus. Keep in mind that the floor of the sinus
  is the roof of the upper jaw. After several
  months of healing, the bone becomes part of the
  patients jaw and dental implants can be inserted
  and stabilized in this new sinus bone.
• If enough bone between the upper jaw ridge and
  the bottom of the sinus is available to stabilize
  the implant well, sinus augmentations and implant
  placement can sometimes be performed as a single
  procedure. If not enough bone is available, the
  Sinus Augmentation will have to be performed
  first, then the graft will have to mature for
  several months, depending upon the type of graft
  material used. Once the graft has matured, the
  implants can be placed.

Ridge Expansion

• In severe cases, the ridge has been reabsorbed
  and a bone graft is placed to increase ridge
  height and/or width. This is a technique used to
  restore the lost bone dimension when the jaw
  ridge gets too thin to place conventional
  implants. In this procedure, the bony ridge of
  the jaw is literally expanded by mechanical
  means. Bone graft material can be placed and
  matured for a few months before placing the
  implant.
• Dental implant is a little costly
  procedure. In U.S.A U.K it cost around 2000
  and in India Dental Implant are available at
  affordable cost.
• Dental implant is done under anaesthesia .
  During procedure and post operative also it is
  painless.
