Implant is a new name in dentistry and maybe ten years ago we had heard less about it. In this article, we will first introduce you to the different parts of the implant structure, and after explaining about the different parts of the implant, we will discuss the general aspects of its surgery.
Dental implants and replacement of missing teeth In the text below, you can get useful information about the different parts of the implant. If you have any questions, please post them in the comments section to receive an answer in less than 24 hours.
1- The main body of the implant:
The main structure of the implant is a page-shaped titanium base that is placed inside the jaw bone. After cutting the gum area and accessing the jawbone with drills that are the same size as the base, the jawbone is drilled and this base is placed inside the cavity. One of the reasons for the high cost of implants, in addition to titanium, which is expensive, is the way these bases are made in such a way that these bases are made on their surface in such a way that they stimulate the adjacent bone to ossify in its vicinity, and therefore it can be said that These levels are smart. After some time, the ossification around the base causes the base to adhere firmly to the surrounding bone and provides strength similar to the root of a natural tooth. This part of the work, which is the basis of the implant, is the most important part of the work and the most accurate stage of the work and has a decisive effect on the success of the treatment.
2- Abutment or implant connector with implant crown:
This part is placed on the implant after the main trunk is placed and is used to maintain the prosthesis or the upper structures of the implant system. There are different types of abutments, the three main types of abutments are screw type, cemented type, which is attached to the main trunk with The bonding is strong, and the third type is used as overdenture connections for complete or partial dentures secured with implants. These connections are like push buttons that fit with pressure and are separated with a short pressure. Abutments may be straight or angled in relation to the main trunk, each of which has its own specific applications, and it is the dentist who chooses the right type and angle of the abutment according to the treatment area.
3- The crown part of the implant:
This part is made in the laboratory after molding, and the coating form and color depends on the available space and the accuracy and taste of the dentist. The duty of the dentist is to provide the right color and form to provide the desired beauty by making a suitable cover for the implant, the chewing surface suitable for the patient's nutrition, and at the same time, these covers should be made in a form that is easy to maintain hygiene and can be cleaned in the usual ways. kept
Implant installation steps:
The general method of implant placement is that after planting the main base of the implant, we should consider time for this titanium base to be strengthened inside the jaw bone. Today, with the progress made in the field of implant surface construction and the changes that have been made in the form of the implant surface as well as the materials that are placed on the implant surface, the stimulation for bone formation and as a result the faster hardening of the implant body inside the bone has been accelerated and this It has made it possible to make and install the crown part of the implant at the same time in two back-to-back sessions. If a person has lost one or more teeth or is completely toothless, in order to replace the lost teeth, he can use the implant. Use dental floss. A dental implant is a small base made of titanium metal or titanium alloys. This metal is easily accepted by the bones and the connection of the jaw bone with this metal is done well. The word implant to bone connection (Osseoitgration) is used a lot in this regard, which means the connection and connection of the dental implant with the jaw bone. The dental implant that replaces the root of the tooth has fine grooves on its surface that are screwed into the jaw bone. The implant is placed inside the hole created by the drill. The main goal in installing an implant is to achieve an immediate connection with the surrounding bone. This will provide an initial stability that will be strengthened over time by increasing bone mass on the sub-microscopic surface of the implant.
