About Dental Implants in Kolkata

People with missing tooth often feel anxious about their looks. However, the problem of a missing tooth is not solely a cosmetic concern but also a functional concern in terms of chewing. If not replaced at the right time, this missing tooth can cause a lot of permanent damage, including periodontal infection, deterioration of bone, dropping gums and more.

Therefore, to prevent these problems and to improve the smile, many patients undergo dental implant surgery. A dental implant is a medical treatment that permanently substitutes natural teeth. Implants are small screw-like instruments that are installed within the jaw in the root part of the missing tooth. Later, when this implant attaches to the bone, it assists as the new root for the crown to support the missing tooth. Finally, a crown that appears like a natural tooth is placed on the implant to replace the lost tooth permanently. With years of practice and expertise, we can address a wide range of issues related to lost teeth.

We have helped many patients attain a gorgeous smile and recover their oral health. We are recognized for delivering the best dental implants in Kolkata over the years.

About Dental Implants in Kolkata

The science behind working of the dental implant

Once the dental implant is inserted surgically inside the bone, it is allowed to stay there for the bone formation part on the dental implant, which is also called osseointegration. A variety of other surgical procedures exist, such as sinus augmentation techniques, grafting materials, and alternative techniques, such as tilted implants, zygomatic implants, and short implants that can be used.

Types of Dental Implants we offer

Dental Implants are Artificial Teeth that last for a lifetime. A dental implant is an artificial tooth root that is fixed into your jaw to support the artificial tooth or bridge. Dental implants are an ideal replacement option for people who have lost a tooth or teeth due to periodontal infection, damage, or some other reason. Dental implants are advanced dentistry's best option for replacing lost teeth.

Why Do We Need Dental Implants in Kolkata?

Teeth play an essential part in the overall health and social life of a person. So losing one tooth influences the quality of life to a great extent. The most fundamental being changed is nutrition and taste. Besides this, after the loss of teeth, the residual bone also experiences accelerated degeneration. A person's social life is changed to a great extent due to the absence of teeth. While a beautiful smile charges you with confidence, lack of it decreases it.

  • Gained self-confidence and improved quality of life
  • No need to scrape the adjoining teeth to form the conventional bridge
  • Improves communication
  • Enhanced comfort relative to removable dentures
  • Check further loss of teeth and bone support
  • Developed oral health

Procedures Involved in Dental Implant

1st Step:
Dental Examination by the dental implant expert and as per the instructions of the dental implant expert certain diagnostic tests are done like

  • Dental Digital Xray - RVGs
  • Panoramic films- OPGs, Lateral Cephs
  • Dental CBCT Scans

2nd Step:
The dental implant surgery is planned and done under local anaesthesia. The site for a dental implant is prepared with specific bone drills, and a dental implant is then inserted surgically and then left for few months.

3nd Step:
Once the osseointegration is completed, the dental implant expert checks the whole implant site with X-rays and then necessary steps are taken for the replacement with a dental crown or dental bridge.

In the case of cortical dental implants and immediate dental implants, the dental implant is loaded immediately after the dental extraction is performed.

Immediate Dental Implant loading versus Conventional Dental Implant (delayed) loading.

Previous studies by several researchers concluded that after implantation in the jaw for a future prosthesis, titanium implants should be left submerged to experience a therapeutic process before they are capable of functional loading. Osseointegration could be effectively accomplished in a period from 3 to 6 months.

The concept behind delayed loading was to avoid micro-movement on the implant, which could interfere with the healing process. Connective tissue can occur at the interface between the implant surface and the bone. The result would be a failure of the implant due to not being able to resist the chewing forces.

With the recent advances and the development of technologies and the widespread implantation in dentistry, more recent research has focused on the mechanism of bone healing. It has proffered a better knowledge of osseointegration. It was suggested that it would be possible to reduce the time between implantation and prosthesis placement.

Over the past 18 years, numerous studies and trials have reported similar results with trans-mucosal implants as compared with submerged implants. As a result, it is unnecessary to submerge the implants under the mucosa during the healing period, which eventually introduced the immediate loading protocol. This protocol was initially developed to treat edentulous patients, and its main purpose was to restore immediate function and aesthetics, which are usually the main concerns of patients.

Many recent studies that focused on this concept have shown excellent results because the primary outcome was the survival of the implant.

Basal Bone Cortical Dental Implant in Kolkata – New Modern approach to get fixed teeth within a short period of time.

Basal implants are dental implants that use the jaws' basal cortical portion for retention of a dental implant. These dental implants are unique, and they are designed for the only purpose of gaining anchorage from the basal cortical bone. They have gone through several changes and modifications in the past several decades. The advanced basal implant has a refined yet manageable design, surgical protocol, and a prosthetic-friendly system.

The basal bone is less prone to bone resorption because of its highly dense structure take support from the basal bone, which offers an excellent and long-lasting solution for tooth loss take support from the basal bone, and it offers an excellent and long-lasting solution for tooth loss.

Intra Oral Welding Technique – A revolutionary technology that is available in Kolkata.

Immediate solidarization of the cortical or basal bone dental implant increases the success rate. An intraoral welding unit is then used to join and stabilize implants as an orthopaedic splint to break down forces applied on permanent restorations during healing and osseointegration. This approach allows for the immediate loading of basal bone dental implants in bone-defective areas where multiple implant systems have been loaded.

FAQ

Is Basal Cortical Implants available in Kolkata?

Yes, you can contact us as we are constantly treating patients through basal cortical implant treatment. It is the modern and advanced way of dental implants that can save your time, and you can get new teeth fitted within 3-5 days instead of 4-6 months.

How much time is it needed for placing Basal Bone Cortical Implants after extraction and loading it with a Fixed Dental Bridge?

Basal bone cortical implants, also known as an immediate dental implant or same-day dental implant, generally takes about 48 hours to 5 days after placement of the implant and inserting a fixed dental implant.

Are all dental implants successful?

According to research done, around 95% of lower jaw implants are successful, whereas 90% of upper jaw implants are successful. The success rate for upper jaw implants is lower because the upper jaw is less compact than the lower jaw, making implantation more complicated for the oral surgeon and more complex for osseointegration (the method where the implant blends with the jaw bone) to attain a position.

Do dental implants look like real teeth?

Yes, dental implants look like natural teeth; we prepare a set of teeth or a single tooth in the same shade as your existing teeth to make it look more realistic.

Can You Turn Dentures Into Implants?

No, dentures can’t be turned into implants. Dental implants are metal screws that the dentist fixes into your jawbone to aid support and secure your artificial teeth (dentures). It might be feasible for your dentist to restore the implants below existing dentures to help support and strengthen them. However, the dentist can only do this if your existing dentures are in great condition. The dentist will inspect your present dentures to scrutinize their condition.
