Before the treatment with dental implants
Before treatment a CBTC scan must be performed, the images provide extremely important information concerning the size of the alveolar bone, the position of important anatomical structures like the mandibular nerve and artery or the maxillary sinuses.
The CBCT scan shows the width and height of the alveolar bone, if the bone is not sufficient for placing a dental implant, bone augmentation should be performed.
The precision in treatment planning provides long term results.
Not always the recipient bone is sufficient for placing a dental implant.
Treatment procedure
-
Surgical stage- the placement of the dental implants in the bone.
-
Time for the implant integration in the alveolar bone.
-
Placement of a sulcus former which prepares the gingiva for the future crown and abutment placement
-
Placement of an abutment and a crown.
Successful therapy factors
-
The implant treatment stages are individual for each patient. It is possible to be implanted immediately after tooth extraction or after a certain period.
dental implants
The dental implant is made of titanium and replaces the tooth root. Depending on the case, a single tooth crown, bridge or a dental prosthesis could be mounted on the top of the implant
