Traditional Implant
Traditional implant treatment is a surgical procedure used to treat tooth deficiencies. This treatment method involves placing the implant in the jawbone and replacing the natural tooth root.
Conventional implant treatment usually involves the following steps:
Assessment and planning: Firstly, your dentist will assess the condition of your missing tooth and its suitability for implant treatment. Necessary x-rays, analyses of your tooth and jaw structure will be performed and a treatment plan will be created in which the implant will be placed appropriately.
Anaesthesia Implant treatment is performed under local anaesthesia. This ensures that you do not feel pain or discomfort during the procedure.
Implant placement: Surgically, an incision is made in the jawbone through which the implant will be inserted. A pilot hole is drilled in this incision and the implant is inserted into the jawbone as an artificial root in the form of a titanium screw. The implant is usually fixed in the jawbone and fuses with the bone during the healing process (osseointegration).
Healing process: A healing process is necessary for the implant to fuse with the bone and be fixed in the jawbone. This can usually take several months. Sufficient time is given for the implant to integrate and stabilise in the jawbone.
Abutment placement: After the healing process, the dentist places an abutment (a piece used to attach the denture) on the implant. The abutment goes above the gum line and ensures that the denture is securely attached.
Prosthesis fitting: A permanent or temporary prosthesis (crown, bridge or denture) is attached to the abutment. The prosthesis replaces the missing tooth or teeth and provides an aesthetic and functional solution.
Traditional implant treatment is usually a multi-stage process and the treatment time can take several months, including implant placement, healing and prosthesis fitting. The treatment time and procedure may differ for each patient, so Mandarindent will determine the most appropriate treatment plan for you.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a conventional implant and how does it work?
Conventional implants are artificial tooth roots made of titanium and inserted into the jawbone. These implants are accepted by the jawbone in a biologically appropriate way. After placement, they integrate with the bone. The prosthetic tooth or bridge placed on them provides an aesthetic and functional solution.
Is traditional implant application painful?
Traditional implant placement is usually performed under local anaesthesia, so pain sensation during the procedure is minimal. Mild discomfort or swelling may occur after the procedure, but this is usually temporary and can be controlled with painkillers.
Who is a suitable candidate for implant application?
Suitable candidates for implant placement are usually individuals with good general health and a sufficiently dense jawbone. Smokers, diabetic patients and those with low bone density are subjected to a detailed evaluation before implant application.
