Seven misunderstandings of dental implants:
1. For real teeth that can be saved through treatment, we should insist on treatment instead of considering tooth extraction at every turn;
2. This kind of dental implant is carried out on the basis of no root and needs artificial root.
3. When the teeth are implanted, titanium nails are punched in the remaining alveolar bone or jaw bone as artificial roots.
4. The service life of dental implants can reach at least 10 years, which is also related to everyone's usage habits and protection methods. Generally speaking, the implanted pure titanium artificial root is generally stable and does not need to be replaced, but it may need to be replaced if the crown of the implanted tooth is not well protected.
5, planting teeth, every place where teeth are extracted. Those elderly people who have lost a whole row of teeth or many teeth only need to implant a small number of teeth as a fixed support "pier", and the whole row of dentures will firmly act on the "pier".
6. Dental implant is actually a minor operation, and now it has developed into a minimally invasive operation. There is less postoperative bleeding and no swelling and pain. All missing teeth can be "implanted" at one time, and the pain and trauma are even less than that of tooth extraction.
7. Dental implantation can be completed at one time. In the past, dental implants had to pull out the roots, and artificial roots could only be implanted after three months, and crowns could only be installed after three months. In some cases, artificial roots and crowns can be implanted immediately after tooth extraction.

1, so that the denture can assume the chewing function reasonably. Prevent excessive pressure. Due to different factors such as bone and health. The hardness and toughness of the food that dentures can chew are also different, so giving full play to the efficacy of dentures is one of the key points of denture care.
2. Do a good job in daily cleaning of oral cavity and denture. Poor oral hygiene can easily cause inflammation around implants. Besides brushing your teeth once every morning and evening and gargling after meals, you should also pay special attention to the sanitary condition of dentures. The key parts of cleaning are the neck and surrounding gingival tissue of dentures.
3, regular review and medical care. It is not enough to brush your teeth correctly after "planting teeth". Need to go to the hospital regularly to clean dentures and natural teeth. Generally, it is necessary to go to a specialized hospital once every six months to clean up dental plaque and stones that cannot be removed by routine brushing.
