What materials are dental implants?
The materials have the metal titanium and different types of ceramics (glass ceramics, Aluminiumoxydkeramik, Zirkonkeramik) enforced:
Titan (Fig. li. O.), or a Titanoxyd coated metal body, the General Medical a proven and stable material, such as Countless experiences with artificial hip joints. Besides his excellent load it in his size is always more of a natural tooth root can be simulated. Because of its excellent biocompatibility deposited relatively rapidly to the surface of his jaw bone and the implant is a permanent body maintenance (osseointegration). This characteristic makes the material but also sensitive to the accumulation of unwanted bacteria, and thus emerge with the part of the implant, which in the oral cavity rises (implant posts), problems such that on the surface very well liked bacteria fix the implant along wander into the depths (problems), and so the preservation of artificial tooth root endanger. An excellent oral hygiene is essential at this eingepflanzten material!
Ceramics (Fig. li. U.) - also very good bio-known mainly because of the smooth surface of the previously described problems is not as strong. The threat of invasion by bacteria on the implant posts is considerably smaller. A major disadvantage of ceramics is low but their resilience and strength and the lack of osseointegration. The implant body must be very much larger dimensions, what with an “unnecessary” victims of jaw bone is connected to single tooth implants to space problems, to the neighboring natural teeth out there.
The future is the so-called Verbund include implants, which in the mouth of the cave-eminent ceramic part, or sometimes Thus coated and tissues in the body are part (implant body) is made of titanium or coated:
Zukunftsträchtig are also implants exclusively from Zirkonium-Materialien
