Tooth loss affects the appearance and the normal functions of an individual. The causes of tooth removal can be accidental trauma, periodontal diseases, or oral pathology. In all situations, the replacement of absent tooth is mandatory for all patients. For the successful rehabilitation of the mouth, one of the most ideal and practical approaches is to have a dental implant in place of natural missing teeth. Implant Cambridge provides Dental implants that are appropriate for all patients, with just a few factors affecting the dental implant’s prognosis for each person.
In healthy patients, dental implants are more robust and have a success rate of up to 98 percent for tooth replacement. Different factors are responsible for the longevity of dental implants. Due to their stress-bearing and functional reliability, dental implants exceed most restorative tooth replacement approaches.
Implant Care in the healing phase
Two-stage surgery is the most common surgical technique for implants. In the first. The first stage is for the bone to implant union is osseointegration. Direct union of implant and bone is critical for the stress-bearing ability of implants. Any malfunction during the healing phase results in implant failure. It is necessary to wait at least 6 months for complete healing of the implant before initiating any functional activity on the implant. Osteointegration can improve the life span of dental implants and any failure in the healing leads to implant loss and failure.
Excessive loading of the implant
Heavy occlusal forces in the healing phase or after implant placement can cause implant mobility and lower strength and durability. Avoid biting on the hard object before completion of the implant-bone union.
Oral hygiene and brushing habits
A regular tooth brushing with flossing helps to last dental implants for many years. Good oral health prevents bacterial attacks on the oral tissues that can affect the strength and durability of the implant. A routine dental checkup also prevents any potential implant damage or failure of implants.
Dental implants for full mouth
In edentulous patients, the implants ensure denture stability and support. The suggested implant configuration for that patient is 4 implants or 6 implants in a single arch for denture support. The implant can easily support the complete denture and offers long-term strength and durability in full mouth tooth replacement.
For long-term stability of the dental implant, select experienced Dental Implant dentists. Good oral health is a key component for the long-term success and reliable prognosis of dental implants. Poor oral hygiene raises the bacterial load, increases the risk of peri-implantitis or implant inflammation and implant mobility, which may lead to procedure failure.
