Missing teeth without inlays are very harmful, why are implants favored?

People often say "old teeth", it seems that people will lose their teeth naturally when they get old. In fact, it is not the case. "Old teeth" is not necessarily the fault of age.

Dental problems are not only found in the elderly, but also gradually become younger. It is said that the post-90s have premature teeth decay. Due to tooth decay, accidents, periodontal disease and other reasons, some people have loose or even missing teeth. But most people don't take tooth loss seriously, thinking that apart from the inconvenience of eating, there are no other serious problems. Is this really the case?

After the tooth is missing, if it is not repaired in time, it will affect the health of the adjacent teeth, resulting in food impaction in the healthy adjacent teeth, which will cause dental caries, tilt, loosening, etc., and even cause loss in severe cases. In addition, diseases such as senile dementia, vascular obstruction, myocardial infarction, and digestive system are also closely related to dental health.

Therefore, once there is a missing tooth, it must be repaired as soon as possible. Dental implants have been recognized by the stomatology field as the preferred method of repairing missing teeth . Because they are almost the same as natural teeth in function and appearance, they are also called "human teeth". third set of teeth".

Dental implants refer to artificial implants, not real natural teeth. In layman's terms, a dental implant is to implant an implant made of artificial materials into the alveolar bone of the edentulous area through surgery, as an artificial tooth root, and then repair the missing tooth on this basis , mainly including the lower part of the supporting implant The body and the upper dental restoration are two parts.

Dental implant surgery is a cutting-edge technology in the field of stomatology. It has high requirements for the doctor's technical proficiency, disinfection, environment, and equipment. Only by choosing professional and skilled doctors and regular dental institutions can the postoperative effect and safety be guaranteed. more assured.

Can I get dental implants at an older age?

Many people think that the elderly have entered their twilight years, so they can bear the toothache, and if it doesn't work, they can make do with removable dentures, and consider dental implants as "unnecessary".

In fact, this is a wrong idea . Long-term lack of teeth will cause a series of problems: food cannot be chewed, and nutrients cannot be absorbed, which generally causes indigestion, gastrointestinal problems, and poor mental state. If the old man is not in good health, how can he talk about caring for his life?

At present, there are three ways to replace missing teeth: dental implants, removable dentures (dentures), and fixed dentures (porcelain teeth). Although the cost of dental implants is higher than other restoration methods, its advantages are: it is more comfortable than other bridge restorations and removable dentures, its shape and use feel are closer to natural teeth, and its lifespan is longer; for some complicated cases, Dental implants may be the only way to replace missing teeth.

"I finally persuaded my parents to get dental implants, but they are over 70 years old this year, can they still have dental implants?" Many people have similar questions, worrying that dental implants will be risky when they are older. In fact, there is no upper age limit for adults. As long as the periodontal condition permits and the general condition permits, the elderly can also be implanted. In the actual visits, there are also many dental implants for the elderly in their 80s and 90s. For the elderly, after missing teeth, they should enjoy the benefits of the successful technology of dental implants. Plant early and enjoy early, solve parents' eating problems, and regain the taste of the tip of the tongue!

Digital navigation: "BeiDou satellite navigation" in the field of dental implantology makes dental implants more accurate

Digital implant navigation uses advanced computer-aided technology, adopts special implant surgery design software to carry out reasonable plan design in a 3D simulation environment, and combines precise optical positioning technology to realize the fusion of surgical instruments, CT medical images and human anatomical structures. During the whole operation process, the system presents the patient's anatomical structure in real time, and monitors the implantation site, angle, and depth throughout the process, so as to achieve precise implantation. Its principle is like the "BeiDou satellite navigation" in the process of driving, which can accurately guide you in the direction of progress.

Oral dynamic navigation implant technology and the application of "implant robot" can enable patients to obtain a safer, more accurate, minimally invasive, efficient and comfortable experience in the process of dental implant treatment.
