Did you know that dental implants have a huge advantage over the traditional method?
Teeth play a much more critical role in the healthy functioning of the human body than many would think. When it comes to the health of our teeth, it must always mean increased attention and care. Neglected teeth mean insufficient chewing ability, which can negatively affect digestion. Furthermore, inflamed gums and teeth can harm other organs of the human body. Teeth that are unsuitable for prosthetic care have to remove. The best solution known today for their replacement is dental implants, especially immediate loading implants. So, let's talk about them.
What is a dental implant?
An implant is a high-purity titanium alloy artificial tooth root that can perfectly replace a natural tooth root. We mention only one of its enormous advantages: the metal tooth root will not inflame, won't cause pain, and lasts forever. And that's just one of many benefits. Today, two different implants and implantation methods are prevalent. One is the conventional two-phase implants, and the other is the one-phase implants, in other words, immediate loading implants. This writing will be mainly about the latter, but anyone interested can read more about two-phase implants here.
What do the words one-phase implants mean?
As its name implies, they implant them in a single phase. Unlike two-phase implants, which take two different steps, 3-6 months can elapse between each time. In the case of immediate loading implants, these dental implants can be implanted right after removing the teeth that are not suitable for dental care! So, the implantation occurs in a single phase, even for a complete denture. The unique feature of a one-phase implant is that it is loadable right after insertion allowing the implantation to occur in a single phase, in one treatment.
What are the key benefits of a one-phase implant?
1.) Perhaps the most crucial advantage is that the process takes a short time since it is loadable immediately! For example, complete oral rehabilitation means entire lower and upper implantation plus long-term temporary dentures complete in 3-5 days. Not to mention with a double guarantee!
2.) Another essential advantage is that these dental implants and implantation methods may be the solution for those who do not have adequate quality and quantity of dental bone. That is excellent news for the older age group.
3.) The implantation of a one-phase implant is an effortless invasive surgical procedure. One-phase implantation occurs through the gum through a tiny hole drilled in the tooth bone. So, there is no need to incise the gingival and then suture it back as it happens with the two-phase implantation process. That means much more minor inconvenience to patients.
In addition, there are numerous other benefits to one-phase dental implants, which you can read about in more detail here.
What is the implantation PROCESS for a one-phase implant?
1st Session: IMPLANTATION, SAMPLING
Removal of teeth unsuitable for prosthetic care, implantation of the needed number of Immediate Loading Implants, taking Impressions for dentures.
2nd Session: FRAME and DENTURE FITTING
Fitting the metal frames carrying the teeth on the denture(s). Possible Fitting and adjustment of the long-term, temporary denture(s)
3rd Session: DENTURE FITTING, INSTALLATION
Fitting and adjusting the long-term, temporary denture(s).
4th Session: RESERVE DAY, CHECK UP
Backup day in case there is a delay due to some unexpected events.
5th Session: RESERVE DAY, CHECK UP
Backup day in case there is a delay due to some unexpected events.
How and who should I choose if I want a one-phase dental implants-based denture?
Your dentist may be excellent and knowledgeable, but that doesn't necessarily mean an experienced implantologist. That is because it requires special knowledge and skills. Even if you think you have the best implantologist to do the work, you still need to research before making a final decision. Therefore, for one-phase implantation, always consult the appropriate oral surgeon who has the knowledge and practices to perform such implantation perfectly.
