How do Dental Implants work?

 

Dental Implants are Titanium Alloy Prosthetics that are surgically placed directly into the jawbone where the teeth/tooth are missing. Its osseointegration – the process of fusing the implant to the surrounding bone, is achieved via the composition of the titanium alloy used.

 

1. Depending on the case the gum may be incised to accurately drill into the bone (this is not absolutely necessary unless the bone thickness is poor), a pilot drill is used to guide the main drill followed by the Implant.

 

2.  After the Implant is placed inside the jaw, a healing cap will be used to prevent tissue or bone from blocking the internal cavity of the Implant, the gum is sutured to protect the Implant during the recovery period. 

 

3. The recovery period can take between 6 months to 1 year for some patients depending on their bone health, in some rare cases the recovery period can be skipped in favor of the Immediate Loading System. 

 

4. When the recovery period is concluded and the panoramic x-rays and CBCT show good results for Implant osseointegration, the gum will be opened slightly to expose the Implant healing cap – which is removed, and then a Dental Abutment is installed in its place.

 

5. When the Abutment is secured an Alginate or Rubber Impression is made to create a mold for our Laboratory to produce your Dental Crown, Bridge, or Denture. Bridgework and Dentures require more than 1 Implant to support them. (See our Prosthetics List for more information on options for Dental Crowns, Bridgework, or Dentures for your Dental Implant)

 

Then over the course of several months, the implants gradually bond with the bone, creating a very strong and stable foundation for your brand new teeth. From there small posts will be attached to the implants, and finally, the new artificial teeth are placed on top the posts Once completed your new teeth will be completely natural-looking and you will be able to eat virtually any type of food.

 

What Type of Treatment is Right For Me?

If you are considering dental implant surgery with us the specific type of procedure that’s best for you will depend on a number of factors.

This will include the location and number of the teeth that are missing, whether you require extractions, the condition of your jawbone, and of course your overall health in general. Dr.Dyson at her Manila surgery with her many years of experience will carefully assess your own personal state of dental health and from there recommend a personalized treatment plan that’s right for you. Dr. will also be able to assist you with any tooth extraction’s and any bone grafting you may require, and of course the placement of the implants and posts.

Am I Suitable For Dental Implants?

In order for the best possible result from a specific dental implant procedure, the patient should be in good overall health and have a sufficient amount of healthy jawbone as this will serve as a foundation for the dental implant procedure. However, even in the case that you don’t have the optimal jawbone, Dr. Dyson may still be able to perform some advanced techniques, such as a sinus lift or bone grafting, to assist in the successful placement of dental implants. The best approach is to make an appointment for a personal consultation with Dr. Dyson in Manila today then you will have a clear idea if you’re a good candidate for dental implants.
