Dental Implants

A dental implant is manmade replacement in place of the natural teeth which enables a person to have fixed teeth.

Dental Implant

Introduction

When we have a missing tooth, we will think about the replacement. If the replacement options are more, we will think twice. Because we have questions like?

  • Which will give a long time solution.
  • Which is a fixed option.
  • Which is comfortable.
  • Which is aesthetically good.
  • Which will feel natural.
  • Which is efficient.

But here , No worries because the answer is simple: “DENTAL IMPLANTS”.

Why I Need to Replace My Missing Tooth or Teeth?

Difficulty in chewing?

Chewing efficiency is reduced on the side of missing tooth/teeth.Chewing on the other side or with the remaining natural tooth increases the wear and tear and longevity of the remaining natural tooth.Improper or compromised chewing takes a longer time to digest and ultimately results in gastric problem.

Drifting of natural teeth?

If one or more teeth are missing there is a tendency for the adjacent teeth to drift and opposing teeth to super erupt into the space of extracted teeth.

Multiple tooth decays?

If one or more teeth are missing there is a tendency for the adjacent teeth to drift and opposing teeth to super erupt into the space of extracted teeth.

Periodontal disease?

Food lodgement between the natural tooth affects the gums resulting in periodontal disease.

Types of Dental Implants

Endocare specializes in providing a variety of dental implant options to restore your smile and oral function. Whether you require single-tooth implants,
All-on-4, or full-arch restorations, our advanced procedures offer individualized care with lasting results. Explore the many types of dental implants we provide to discover the best match for your requirements.

Single Implants

Single implants are mostly advised for the patient if bridge option is not possible ,if the adjacent teeth is compromised as we can’t take support for the bridge and replacement option without disturbing the adjacent natural teeth. Even though there is a healthy adjacent tooth we advise implants for replacing the missing tooth to avoid the trimming of adjacent tooth

Single implant is a very minimal surgical procedure and also a perfect and healthy solution for your missing tooth.

In the case of a single tooth implant, if it is a front tooth , a temporary tooth will be given during the waiting period.

Single Implants
Multiple Implant

Multiple Implants

It is also called the Implant Bridge .In case of 2 or more missing teeth, multiple implants can be done for sectional replacement. Number of implants depends on space available for replacement, number of missing teeth and your quality & quantity of bone available.

Full Mouth Rehabilitation

  • Full mouth rehabilitation with dental implants is the best fixed replacement option for completely edentulous jaws.
  • Completely edentulous upper and lower arch.
  • Periodontally affected gum disease weakened upper and lower teeth in full arch and traumatically fractured multiple missing teeth with less number of natural teeth present.
  • Not comfortable with removable dentures.
  • In this case we can replace the entire tooth arch with 4/6/8 implants. Fixed full mouth rehabilitation of complete upper and lower arch can be done with dental implants.

This system is called the “All on 4” and “All on 6” technique.

Full Mouth Rehabilitation
All on 4/Dental Implants

All on 4 Dental Implants

  • The protocol uses two implants in the anterior part of complete edentulous jaws to support a provisional fixed and immediately loaded prosthesis.
  • The two most anterior implants are placed axially, whereas the two posterior implants are placed distally and angled to minimize the cantilever length, and to allow the fixing of prosthesis with up to 12 teeth, likewise we can enhance the chewing efficiency.

All on 6 ceramic teeth /Hybrid denture

All-on-6 ceramic teeth and hybrid dentures provide a permanent, long-lasting option for full-arch restoration by employing six dental implants to support ceramic prosthesis, resulting in a natural appearance and feel.

In contrast, Implant-supported removable dentures use dental implants with ball-shaped attachments that allow the denture to snap firmly into place. This alternative provides stability and simple removal for cleaning, making it a pleasant and convenient choice for people looking for implant-supported dentures.

Both approaches are appropriate for people who want to restore complete dental function while also improving their smile’s appearance. They offer long-lasting, dependable alternatives to traditional dentures, which improve both comfort and dental health.

Zirconium Bar Attachment

Zygomatic Implants

  • Even patients with highly compromised alveolar bone in the upper jaw can also have fixed rehabilitation with the help of zygomatic implants.
  • Zygomatic implants are longer dental implants that are anchored in the zygomatic bone rather than the maxillary upper jaw bone. This technique is used when there is insufficient bone in the upper jaw, because of more bone resorptions.
  • Zygomatic implants provide a stable foundation for supporting a fixed dental prosthesis, like an implant supported bridge or denture.
  • The decision to use zygomatic implants is typically made based on a thorough evaluation of the patient’s anatomy and specific dental needs by the implant team.

Pterygoid Implants

  • Pterygoid implants are a type of dental implant placed in the upper jaw especially for patients where traditional implant placement might be challenging due to insufficient bone in the posterior maxilla and sinus.
  • Placed in the pterygoid region, these implants provide stability for supporting a fixed dental prosthesis, such as an implant supported bridge, the decision to use pterygoid implants is typically based on the patients individual anatomy and the assessment of the dental implant team.
  • It is a specialized technique aimed at overcoming certain anatomical limitations for successful implant – supported restorations.
Pterygoid Implants
Implant Supported Dentures

Implant Supported Dentures

  • Semi fixed implants -type of replacement to enhance stability & functionality.
  • 2/4 implants with Ball attachment are used to hold the removable complete dentures in position.
  • They consist of a ball-shaped attachment on the implant fixture, to which the corresponding socket in the denture or prosthetic appliance gets fixed.
  • This attachment provides stability and retention, allowing for a secure fit of the denture on the implants.
  • Implants with ball attachment only hold and support the denture.But the dentures are not fixed permanently.
