Dental Implants Clinic

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots placed in the jaw to support a replaced tooth or a bridge. Apollo medical center Abu Dhabi is offering this treatment for those who have lost teeth and worried for its replacement. This treatment provides a long-lasting and highly effective solution for those who have lost teeth due to injury, decay, or other reasons. Dental Implants are directly fixed into the jaw, to replace with a permanent and stable solution for a missing tooth, unlike dentures or other removable tooth replacements which are not that durable.

Dental implants are made from materials like titanium or other biocompatible substance that gets easily fuse with the jawbone and provides a strong base for a replaceable tooth or a bridge over it. Apart from that, unique benefit of such implants is their quality of providing a natural-looking and functionally replaced tooth. These implants are placed into jawbone through surgical procedure and gets heal and integrate with the bone over a period. Hence a restoration process in complete form happens once the implant has fully integrated, and a crown or bridge is placed into the implant. The crown or bridge, provided over it will be custom-made to match the nearby tooth appearance of their color, shape and size. In addition, these dental implants do not require a separate care other than normal brushing and flossing, making them the most convenient and low budget maintenance option for a replaced tooth. With appropriate care, it can be maintained for many years, even your life time, which makes it a special and cost-effective alternative for replacing a damaged or replaceable tooth. Additionally this treatment with dental implants can prevent bone loss and preserve the natural structure of the jaw, which could get compromised by a missing teeth.

TYPES OF DENTAL IMPLANTS:

There are several types of dental implants commonly used in dentistry. The choice of implant type depends on various factors, including the patient's oral health, bone structure, and individual needs. Types of dental available are listed below:

Endosteal Implants

These are the most commonly used dental implant types that act as artificial teeth once surgically fixed into the jawbone.

Endosteal implants are specially made from titanium and can support one or more artificial teeth.

Subperiosteal Implants

Subperiosteal implants are placed on or above the jawbone beneath the gum tissue. They are made from a metal frame that attaches to the jawbone, and prosthetic teeth are mounted onto the frame.

Subperiosteal implants are used when there is insufficient bone height or density for traditional implant placement.

All-on-4 Implants

This is a specialized technique where only four dental implants support an entire arch of teeth. These implants maximize stability and provide a strong foundation for a complete set of fixed prosthetic teeth.

Mini Dental Implants (MDIs)

MDIs are smaller in diameter compared to standard implants. They are primarily used to stabilize removable dentures and may be suitable for patients with limited bone structure or those seeking a less invasive option.

Zygomatic Implants

Zygomatic implants are an alternative solution to bone grafting and are preferred in cases with severe bone loss in the upper jaw. They last longer than traditional implants and are anchored in the cheekbone (zygoma) rather than the jawbone.

They are used in cases of severe bone loss in the upper jaw, providing an alternative solution to bone grafting.

It's important to note that the dentist or oral surgeon determines the suitability of a specific implant type for an individual's case after a thorough examination and assessment of the patient's oral health.
