What characteristics and problems exist with dental implants?
Friday, December 21st, 2007In general implants (such as hip joints), it is always “closed” implants that is, they are completely surrounded by body tissue. A risk of infection outside of this kind is not given.
In dentistry, only the bone implants (eg: Alveolarkammplastik) for the construction of missing jaw bone, the transaction Fixation (a implantation through an existing tooth root through, even as endodontisches implant), and some other “exotic” forms, such as magnetic implants, purely “closed” the overwhelming proportion is as a “semi” because a part (of the implant posts, which include the replacement tooth is needed) in the bacteria with plenty of oral cavity for its towers. The gums may be the only part visible implant add, and is not similar to natural teeth (Fig. below left) through a complex biological system with the firm to grow.
A good oral hygiene and particularly at the transition between the implant and gum optimal plaque freedom to the amount of bacteria in this area as low as possible to keep (things). Without this measure hygiene is the failure of this costly treatment measure inevitable.
Satisfactory anatomical conditions: where hardly jaw bone is present-eg Through a highly advanced “parodontosis”, nothing more can be implanted. An exception was the subperiostalen implants and sinus lifting dar. Generally, the quality of bone mass and its tightness and therefore the success of implants in the lower jaw better than in the upper jaw.
Even in the recently offered “short implants” are subject to physical laws. Such a deployment, which is a significant cost saving and surgical intervention, is only in good quality bone successfully.
No serious underlying diseases, such as Blood disorders (leukemia), not adjusted diabetes (diabetes mellitus), continuous supply of Blutverdünnern (Marc Umar therapy as Infarkt-Prophylaxe), chronic disorders of the immune system, rheumatic disorders, severe liver and kidney disorders, poor general body condition, alcohol, nicotine and drug addiction. Even with regular intake of cortisone, Immunsupressiva and cytostatic drugs is not an implant.
In adolescents can be due to the strong growth in the jaw when girls are only starting 15 and boys at 18 years of implant ions.
The implant, and later the dentures supply place high demands on time, technology and skill of Behandlers. It must therefore be scheduled numerous dates and corresponding financial resources available.
