Because of their visual appearance, patients like to compare this artificial tooth root with the dowels made by traditional craftsmen. Implants are anchored directly into the jawbone at the point where the tooth is missing. Implants almost always consist of three parts: the <strong>implant body<\/strong> , which is anchored in the bone, the <strong>neck part<\/strong> and the <strong>crown<\/strong> . The crown optically imitates the tooth.<br\/>However, the implant has to fulfill other tasks. So they must last a lifetime at best, or under <strong>chewing stress<\/strong> , must <strong>not cause any allergic reactions<\/strong> and must be completely absorbed by the jawbone.<\/p>\n\n<p>Nowadays, materials are used for the manufacture of implants that meet the important requirements in terms of <strong>strength<\/strong> and <strong>compatibility<\/strong> . Most <strong>implants<\/strong> are made of <strong>pure<\/strong> titanium or <strong>titanium alloy<\/strong> . For the most part, titanium lasts a lifetime, but is also very well tolerated and also suitable for allergy sufferers. But also special ceramic implants. However, although the ceramic implants are whiter, they are also less resistant to breakage. Whether you are the patient for whom titanium implants or the shape of the ceramic implants is more suitable, you decide together and calmly with your trusted doctor before the operation.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What types of implants are there anyway?<\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Immediate implants<\/h3>\n\n<p>As the name suggests, these are the fastest possible way for a dental prosthesis, in the form of an implant. The immediate implants can be incorporated into the jaw directly or delayed (6-8 weeks) after tooth loss or tooth extraction.<\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The implant bridge<\/h4>\n\n<p>This can replace several teeth in a row. The <strong>implant<\/strong> bridge is fixed on dental implants that have been inserted into the jaw. Alternatively, there is also the <strong>composite bridge<\/strong> , which damages the neighboring teeth because they have to be ground so that the conventional crown can be used without any problems. The <strong>implant<\/strong> bridges are very easy to set and have a high, long-term prospect of success.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mini implants<\/h3>\n\n<p>Also called <strong>MDIs<\/strong> , they are very small and very thin. The mini-implants are <strong>screwed into the jaw like small screws<\/strong> and, like their larger relatives, can easily take on the function of a tooth root. Mini-implants are often <strong>titanium implants<\/strong> , as this <strong>high-quality alloy<\/strong> has proven itself to be quite useful for several decades.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">CAMLOG implants<\/h3>\n\n<p>These are special dental implants made by a <strong>Swiss dental company<\/strong> . The special thing about CAMLOG implants is their particularly high-quality primary stability. The dental implant consists of a <strong>conical screw<\/strong> that is even more stable than conventional jaw screws. This means that the entire jaw can be loaded again immediately after the implantation, as it was screwed so tightly into the bone that nothing really can go wrong. However, in order to enable immediate loading, no bone augmentation must have been necessary beforehand. <strong>CAMLOG<\/strong> also offers temporary abutments so that immediate restoration is possible and the patient does not have to live long without a denture. In addition, with CAMLOG implants the healing time in the jaw is significantly shorter than is the case with conventional implants. It only takes up to six weeks, instead of the usual average 6 months, until you can load your jaw again at the very latest.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3d implantology<\/h3>\n\n<p>In computed tomography, X-raying takes place in layers. This is used for more precise diagnostic use. This implantology is a lot more precise and so doctors can no longer miss out on findings and information. In addition, contrary to what was feared, the jaw skin no longer or hardly has to be opened. This in turn enables a process that is more gentle on the substance and tissue. Cutting and punching are sufficient to insert the implant into the jawbone with almost no bleeding. A drilling template enables the guide sleeve to guide the drill to the affected area with millimeter precision. As a result, an unprecedented level of precision is now possible. Another advantage is that it saves time. Multiple implants can be placed in one session, as there is no need to take any x-rays during the procedure. <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Alternatives to implantations<\/h3>\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Bridge supply<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Part &#8211; full dentures (removable)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">OP and follow-up treatment of the implantations<\/h3>\n\n<p>Before you go to the operation, you first go to a screening appointment. They will check whether your <strong>gums are inflamed<\/strong> or whether a bone structure is advisable before the operation. If both of these are not the case, a few days or weeks later there will be a conversation in which you will be informed about the risks of an operation. Then the operation takes place. This can take place with a local anesthetic by injecting an injection, but also under <strong>general anesthesia<\/strong> for <strong>anxious patients<\/strong> . If the operation is over, it is important to ensure <strong>good oral hygiene<\/strong> . This is done through frequent check-ups at your dentist and at home by <strong>thoroughly brushing<\/strong> your teeth and rinsing with a disinfectant mouthwash. Also, after the operation, avoid exertion and get a good rest. Smoking and drinking alcohol should also be avoided for the time being. Oral hygiene therefore plays such an important role, because otherwise inflammations can occur, which, beginning around the implantation, can spread to such an extent that the implantation can, in the worst case, fall out.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">advantages<\/h3>\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Bone is preserved in place<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>both neighboring teeth do not have to be ground and remain healthy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">disadvantage<\/h3>\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>It may take 6 months for the body to connect to it<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>High costs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Which implant is right for you?
