Dental Implantology is
a set of surgical techniques aiming at the functional
rehabilitation of a patient affected by total or partial edentulism,
by using dental implants, i.e. metal elements surgically
inserted in the mandibular or maxillary bone, or above
them but under the gum. These elements are fitted with connectors to
fasten them to fixed or removable prostheses, to enable chewing
functionality. Such implants can have different shapes; they can be
inserted in different positions, with different techniques, and then
connected to prostheses at different times.
Currently,
implants are almost all made of titanium. Dental implants
are man-made tiny titanium posts. They are inserted in the jawbone
where teeth are missing. These metal anchors act as tooth root
substitutes and are surgically placed into the jawbone.
Dental
implant surgery is generally carried out under local anesthesia. This
means that your mouth will be numb but you will stay awake.
Benefits of
dental implant:
1.
Unlike dental bridge, implants do not require the grinding of
adjacent teeth for support.
2.
Implant restores the ability to chew properly, thus allowing a
healthy and complete diet.
3.
Enables you to speak properly.
4.
Dental implants look and feel like your own teeth.
5.
Many patients report that implants, despite the initial costs are
more comfortable in long term than other conventional techniques and
are considered the best option for replacement of teeth.
In
India the dental implant cost in India starts around $500 which is
very cheap compared to other countries like US and UK where implants
cost is around $1200.
