Implant installation is the process of restoring the chewing function and appearance of one tooth. The implant can be inserted either in the front of the dentition or in the back. The specifics of the procedure and the health requirements of the surrounding tissue will vary. In the article we will find out what these differences are and how the operation takes place.

Features of single tooth implantation

An implant is a dental structure that is inserted into a specially prepared place in the jaw. Titanium alloys and ceramics are used for manufacturing. There are one-stage and two-stage (traditional) methods of implanting one tooth. The choice of technique depends on the condition of the gums and bone tissue. An implant can replace any missing tooth in a row, regardless of its location on the jaw.

General information about the procedure

Stages of implantation of one tooth

Before the operation, the dentist assesses the condition of the oral cavity, studies the structural features of the jaw, conducts X-rays and computed tomography to analyze bone tissue.

Implantation consists of several stages:

  1. Preparation. Making an incision in the gum to access the bone
  2. Formation of a bone bed using drills, selection of depth and diameter according to the size of the implant
  3. Installation of the implant in a prepared place in the bone
  4. Placement of a plug for protection and proper osseointegration
  5. Putting sutures on the gum for healing

The implant healing time in the lower part of the jaw is 2-3 months, in the upper part - up to 6 months. Usually the gums hurt for the first 5-6 days after implantation, which is considered a normal reaction. If the pain intensifies, you should consult a doctor.

Pros and cons of implantation

According to implantation specialists, interest in it will grow in the coming years. This trend is due to many advantages.

Category Pros Cons
Durability An implant can last a lifetime with proper care and installation, avoiding additional replacement costs in the future Implantation is an expensive procedure, the initial costs are significantly higher than with other types of prosthetics
Saving teeth Does not require grinding of adjacent teeth, maintaining their integrity
Functionality Implants provide the comfort and functionality comparable to natural teeth: you can chew, speak and smile with confidence. In rare cases, implant rejection and infection may occur, which requires additional intervention
Risk of complications Complications after implantation are extremely rare Possible complications include: infections, swelling, pain after surgery, which disappear after 3-5 days

Many patients are interested in whether there is an age limit for getting a dental implant. All types of implants are available for adult patients. The exception is people over 70 years of age with chronic diseases. They are recommended to wear removable dentures. For teenagers, the age limit is 17 years for girls and 19 years for boys. This is due to the need for full development of bone tissue.

Indications for implantation

Indications for implantation include:

  • Absence of one tooth
  • Need to remove a molar in the near future
  • Damage to the root that cannot be restored
  • The patient's unwillingness or inability to use a bridge prosthesis

Also, a single-tooth implant is placed in case of bone atrophy, rotten teeth, discomfort from wearing dentures. In case of periodontitis and tooth mobility, implantation helps to avoid tooth loss.

Contraindications

Children under 18 years of age cannot have an implant due to insufficient bone tissue development, incomplete growth of the facial skeleton and a high risk of complications. Other contraindications include:

  • Recent heart attack or stroke
  • Uncontrolled diabetes
  • Circulatory disease
  • Hepatitis, HIV or AIDS
  • Mental disorders
  • Alcohol or drug abuse
  • Tuberculosis
  • Bone disease

If the condition stabilizes, many of these contraindications can be reconsidered. The success rate of a titanium implant is 95-98%. The osseointegration process varies from 3 to 6 months, depending on the individual.

Alternative methods of treating 1 tooth

Dentists offer two alternatives to implantation - removable and fixed dentures. They help restore your smile at any age.

Prostheses for dental implantation are made from various metal alloys, ceramics, metal-ceramics, zirconium, and acrylic. Fixed dental prostheses are easy to care for, have a long service life, are securely attached, and provide high aesthetics.

The main types of prostheses for dental implantation include:

  • Clasp Used for partial or complete loss of teeth. Consist of a metal base and fastening elements in the form of hooks or locks
  • Mini implants They are compact in size and can be installed deeply. Divided into removable and permanent
  • Acrylic They are rarely used because they can cause allergies and inflammatory reactions. Also makes it difficult to speak and eat

Answers to popular questions

Doctors at the K+31 clinic in Moscow answered frequently asked questions about single tooth implantation.

What type of prosthetics is best to use if one tooth is lost?

The best solution for the loss of 1 unit is to place a dental implant followed by a crown. This technique does not affect adjacent healthy teeth, preserves the jaw structure, prevents bone loss, and recreates the appearance of a natural tooth.

How much does it cost to install 1 implant?

The price of implanting one tooth ranges from 30,000 and 150,000 rubles, depending on the location of the clinic, the qualifications of the doctors, the chosen implant and the complexity of the operation. See the price list for “K+31” services at link.

What is included in the price of installing one turnkey implant?

The price of complete implantation of one tooth on a turnkey basis includes the following services:

  • Initial consultation and work on a treatment plan.
  • X-ray or computed tomography.
  • Implant installation.
  • Fixation of a temporary crown.
  • Medical procedures to prepare bone tissue, such as increasing bone volume.
  • Work on a permanent crown based on individual measurements.
  • Installation of a permanent crown after successful osseointegration of the implant.

Repeated examinations and corrections are also included in the cost of services.

Can an implant fail and for what reasons?

Yes, implant failure occurs in approximately 5% of patients. If the implant does not take root the first time, we find out the reasons for this outcome (for example, hidden diseases) and wait 4-6 months to try again.

Should you rush to get an implant to replace a lost tooth?

Yes, it is worth installing an implant without delay. In the absence of a unit, nearby teeth begin to take on additional load while chewing food. The adjacent teeth gradually move towards the empty space, and the opposite tooth moves down. This complicates the prosthetic process and negatively affects the bite. Also, the absence of a tooth leads to a decrease in the volume of bone tissue.

I had an appointment with Artur Tamerlanovich. He thoroughly discussed everything before (he had a wisdom tooth removed), during the surgery, and aftercare measures to speed up recovery and minimize pain. The tooth extraction itself took less than 10 minutes and was completely painless. I highly recommend Artur Tamerlanovich as a highly qualified specialist!

A wonderful doctor, with a gentle touch and expert treatment. It's immediately obvious that he knows what he's doing and what he's talking about. The treatment immediately brought relief to a long-troubling tooth, and any pain or discomfort disappeared. The treatment is performed under a microscope, and the doctor always monitors the results with interim dental x-rays and is very thorough in assessing the results. I plan to have all my problematic teeth treated again with Eldar Rasimovich. I especially want to note how empathetic he is, how he connects with everyone, and how he always has a very positive attitude.
