What are the benefits of dental implants? How long will this process take? Does it hurt?
In life, many people neglect their oral health because they are afraid to do their teeth or feel pain. Neglect often leads to the "aggravation" of oral problems, and small problems become big troubles. Many people choose to endure the situation of missing teeth because they are afraid of seeing the pain of teeth. In the long run, the teeth around the missing teeth will be inclined or the teeth will become longer, which will lead to the decrease of chewing power and affect the daily diet.

Secondly, the time of dental implant surgery is relatively short, usually ranging from a few minutes to an hour, because we don't have to be too afraid. After the operation, everyone just felt uncomfortable after the anesthetic was pushed off, and the situation varied from person to person. Therefore, from all aspects, dental implant surgery is actually painless.

Implants, including abutments, are generally made of titanium or titanium alloys. Titanium has excellent biocompatibility, good combination with human body, stable performance, wear resistance and corrosion resistance, and is widely used in medicine, such as heart stents, artificial bones and joints. Implants made of titanium will not only produce side effects, but also gradually fuse with our alveolar bone and be more stable.

Don't brush your teeth in the operating area within 24 hours after dental implantation, so as not to irritate the wound. After that, it is necessary to clean the implant abutment operation area with a soft brush every morning and evening. Do not chew food with your teeth in the operation area during planting. After planting, don't worry about eating hard things to "test" it. Instead, we should start with soft food, so that dental implants can gradually adapt to chewing foods with various hardness.

If you feel pain during the operation, you must tell the doctor immediately and check the cause in time. If the anesthetic effect is not enough, you can replenish anesthetic in time to prevent pain. In fact, people with high pain threshold can tolerate more pain and discomfort than others. For people with high anxiety, just seeing the injection needle is completely uncomfortable.

Individuals are different. In the process of accepting planting, you must give your own situation to the doctor in time, and try your best to maintain your comfort and success rate of planting. Most patients who have undergone implant surgery report that the postoperative pain is tolerable. Because after the anesthetic effect fades, the operation area will feel some discomfort, and the dentist will prescribe some painkillers accordingly to relieve the discomfort. So basically, the pain after implantation is tolerable, so there is no need to be nervous and afraid.

If you can check it once a year, your oral hygiene habits are better at ordinary times, and you may use it all the time. Periodontal diseases are the main problems that should be paid attention to when dental implants are completed. Periodontal disease is the basis for the stability and survival of any tooth, including dental implants. Once periodontal disease occurs, it will not only affect the stability of real teeth, but also affect dental implants.

We can basically feel the discomfort of real teeth, but it is difficult to implant teeth, so we need to ask a doctor to help us check whether there are hidden problems through inspection. At the same time, the doctor will ask us how to use and maintain dental implants in our daily life, and will correct them in time if we find improper behavior.

A dental implant can be used for about 10 to 50 years. Service life Because everyone's living habits and oral cleaning habits are different, the use time of dental implants is different. In the normal use of dental implants, everyone should eat less hard food to avoid damaging dental implants. Pay attention to maintaining oral hygiene at ordinary times. Good oral hygiene can not only prolong the service life of dental implants, but also be the key to oral health.

In fact, dental implant surgery is painless! It is not only painless, but also helps to enhance our chewing power and restore the vitality of our teeth. Therefore, in daily life, if you find that your teeth are missing, you must remember to contact a regular hospital for dental implant surgery in time!
