Implant

What is a dental implant?
Dental implants are strong substitutes for natural teeth that can create a strong base in the jaw bone, mount a dental veneer on it and replace the original tooth for a long time. This method can be considered as one of the more popular and practical methods compared to other methods such as artificial teeth and crowns, which can be very suitable for those who suffer from the problem of missing teeth.

In fact, implant is the name of a piece and a treatment method in which implant specialists use titanium fixtures or other materials to replace the tooth root and as a base for installing veneers. Then they put the veneers on it and can reconstruct a complete tooth. The use of this method is very practical today to restore chewing power and smile beauty.

Implant components
It should be said about the components of the implant, as you can see in the figure below, the implant is also the name of a piece, which itself consists of three parts. These parts are:

Implant base or fixture:
The implant fixture replaces the root of the tooth and by making a hole in the gum, it is placed in the jaw bone so that it is welded with the jaw bone and creates a strong base for connecting the veneer.

Abutment:
It is a middle piece that can be made of titanium, zirconium, gold, etc., and its task is to create a strong connection between the coating and the base of the implant.

the cover:
The cover is the final part and the surface that is mounted and fixed on the abutment and fixture.

Dental implant procedures
Implants can be done in different ways, which include:

Endostyle dental implant:
This type of dental implant can be considered as one of the most common types of implants, which is often performed as a two-stage operation and the implant is placed inside the jaw bone.

Subprio steel dental implant:
This type of dental implant is placed on the jaw bones and under the gum, and a part of it remains outside the gum to hold the tooth.

One-stage dental implant:
In this type of implant, the relevant piece is placed inside the jaw bone, but a part of it remains outside the gum tissue, so that after the recovery period is completed, there is no need for surgery again to place the tooth crown.

Two-stage implant:
In this common method, the implant is placed inside the jawbone and the gum tissue is sutured, and after the implant is welded to the jawbone, the crown is connected.

Advantages of dental implants
Regarding the advantages of dental implants, it should be said that this method has a very high resistance and usability, and today it is used globally, which shows the reliability of this method for replacing lost teeth. Also, implants can be an effective method in terms of aesthetics, and it is a much better method than fixed bridges or movable prostheses.

In general, the most important advantage of the implant can be considered its long life and good quality. Also, by placing the base of the implant inside the jaw bones, the bone is supported by the implant and does not weaken after welding. This method is also not associated with teeth slipping if installed correctly.
