What is the process of tooth implantation?
The artificial tooth root made of pure titanium alloy is embedded in alveolar bone tissue, and the porcelain teeth are installed on the tooth root after the tooth root is combined with bone tissue.

1, oral test

Patients should have oral CT examination, and doctors should examine the oral cavity to see if there are any symptoms such as inflammation and alveolar bone absorption. If yes, oral diseases must be cured first, because dental implant surgery must be carried out in a healthy environment to avoid side effects.

2. Bone assessment

Patients must have enough gum bone to implant teeth, so as to avoid the failure of dental implants caused by unstable implants. If the patient has insufficient bone mass, artificial bone powder should be implanted.

3. Start dental implant surgery.

First, give local anesthesia to the missing tooth, so that the patient will not feel pain. Then, open the gum and make a hole in the bone tissue of the gum with a drill pipe. Then an artificial implant is implanted, and the cut gingiva is tightly sutured, so that the foundation of the dental implant is fixed.

4. Wait for the bone tissue to heal with the implant.

The length of time depends on the person and the implanted system. A few months later, the second operation was started to open the gums and install the connecting abutment.

5. Put on the crown to complete the third operation.

Put on the crown that the doctor tailored for the patient before. In this way, the whole process of tooth implantation is completed.

Precautions:

1. Doctors need to know the patient's medical history before they can determine the dental implant scheme.

2. Dental implant actually sounds terrible, but it's actually only a minor operation about 10 minutes, and there is no need to be hospitalized. The surgical wound is smaller than the tooth extraction wound.
