The procedure for implant placement is carried out under minimal sedation of the patient. Before the treatment can be performed, a thorough examination and an X-ray are necessary. It is also necessary to collect measurements of the jaw bones and remaining teeth. When it comes to placing dental implants, there are two possibilities. After the implant has been put, a temporary cap is added as part of the one-step surgery. In the two-stage procedure, once the dental implant has been put, it is covered with gum and allowed to recover for some time. After that, the prosthetic heads are connected. In both situations, a temporary bridge is implanted, and it is believed that the lower jaw will heal in three months and the upper jaw will recover in six months in both cases. In certain cases, freshly created teeth may be implanted on dental implants the same day they are created. The patient may safely laugh and eat after receiving a dental implant.
Implants are usually made of zirconium. Zirconium implants are designed to strengthen the resistance of titanium implants, which are already in use. It is used to boost endurance, particularly in those with narrow jawbones. Except for the fact that it is more durable than titanium, it is identical to titanium. Zirconium is also employed in the fabrication of dental veneers. Zirconium possesses a whiteness that is comparable to that of real teeth, and it reflects light. It is advantageous in both aspects of aesthetics and durability. However it can be a bit more costly than titanium dental implants which are almost as good as titanium ones.
