Dental implant

Dental implants represent the most modern and efficient solution for replacing lost teeth.

Whether you lose a tooth, several teeth or all teeth, implants and modern implantology techniques can perform miracles. Thus, patients no longer need to sacrifice natural teeth to anchor dental bridge work types, mobile dentures are no longer used, that creates a permanent discomfort, but instead can benefit from fixed denture, anchored on implants, that looks and feels the same as natural teeth.

Teeth loss represents a real problem, even if their replacement, unfortunately, is frequently postponed or even ignored.

What is a dental implant?

A dental implant is a pure titanium piece (99.95%), generally in the form of a screw. It has the purpose of creating an artificial root within the maxillary bone, where a single natural tooth or several teeth are missing.

Reconstruction is made up of two segments – one intraosseous (implant) and one supraosseous called prosthetic abutment.

Over the prosthetic abutment we can anchor crowns, bridges or dentures.

The treatment is conservatory compared with a traditional bridge work because dental implants remove the necessity of sacrificing neighboring teeth. In case we manufacture a dental bridge, it requires a minimum of two pole teeth for anchoring, teeth which unfortunately will have to be sacrificed (nerves are extracted, root canals are filled and teeth, once healthy, will be polished).

Dental restoring on implants brings extraordinary esthetic and functional benefits, patient not being able to perceive the “artificial” sensation. Shortly after insertion, he actually forgets about losing a tooth in that area.

Dental Implants frequent questions

What is the lifespan of an implant?

How long does a dental implant last/resist? Several dental implants successfully fulfill functions even after 25-30 years. Prognosis for patients with periodontal issues in the past, with bone disorders surrounding natural teeth roots, is less optimistic than for healthy patients. A major influence is the way the patient handles all instructions received at the clinic. As every artificial replacement within the body, there are no promises or guarantees regarding implant’s lifespan.

It’s impossible to know how long a certain type of implant will last but by following specialist’s suggestions at Implantodent, the success rate will increase considerably on the long term.

Is there pain or discomfort?

Will the dental implant hurt? Many patients claim that the implant surgical procedure is less problematic then a wisdom tooth extraction. With modern equipment, perfect sterilization, latest generation anesthetics, specialized medical personnel with vast experience in the field, discomfort will become a foreign concept.

How long does a complete dental implant treatment last?

Depending on implant type, location and selected type of work, total period of time can range between 3, 6 or more months. There are special dental implants (used in Implantodent clinics) which due to composition and surface treatments can be loaded prosthetic (with teeth) immediate (Nobel Biocare, Straumann).

If bone transplant is necessary, healing period will become longer. We will discuss with you all of these aspects and we will advise you on the recovery period.

Will I stay without teeth throughout this whole period?

Immediately after surgery you will be advised not to wear any king of prosthesis in the operated area. In this short period we will produce temporary works for you to continue life with all its social implications. However, if your social and professional lifestyle doesn’t allow you this, there are modern techniques that can produce an immediate temporary prosthesis (implants which allow immediate prosthesis load – Nobel Biocare, Straumann)

How much does a dental implant cost?

The price for a dental implant is actually the dental implant treatment fee. Total price doesn’t include just the dental implant but also of the prosthetic components: prosthetic abutment and dental crown.

Type and material from which it’s produced dramatically modify treatment price. In another train of thoughts, implant type and quality differ from one producer to another.

Other essential factor with determining role in the final cost equation is the specialist’s experience and reputation as well as equipment and facilities of the respective clinic. We cannot leave out procedures and additional materials necessary in certain cases for restoring altered tissues by resorption, necessary for additions and augmentations, for hard as well as soft tissues. That is why the question “how much will an implant cost?” is totally unsuitable in dental implantology.

Dental implant in INDO AMERICAN DENTAL Clinic

Intensive overspecializations on niche areas of dental medicine as well as advanced technology use have imposed INDO AMERICAN as the first clinic in HYDERABAD and among the few in INDIA where digital implantology is practiced on a large scale. Thus, laser unit ZOLAR, dental tomography and cad/cam systems from the clinic’s equipment allow fast rehabilitations, minimally invasive and precise with modern implants. In this manner, three dimensional virtual planning on 1:1 implant scale as well as dental work, right before initiating the surgery helps in the surgical guide development, instrument which allows the operator to insert implant in the safest conditions, decreasing the risk of failure close to zero.

“One visit implantology” or “One visit dentistry”

“One visit implantology” and “One visit dentistry”are practical concepts, in our daily activity. Thus, an immediate dental implant is used whenever necessary for rehabilitation in the esthetic area, meaning the front part of the teeth. Even after tooth extraction, in the same session, patient receives an implant, a zirconium prosthetic abutment as well as a dental crown, so he won’t be deprived in any way of continuing his socio-professional activities.

Orthodontics is an important component in our clinic’s portfolio. Thanks to special miniimplants, called orthodontic, our specialists can recover healthy teeth, efficient and non-invasive, often saving them from extraction or prosthetic recovery crown covering.

We have our own ENT and special therapy specialist, with pain therapy specialization, classic and with laser. Therefore, besides local anesthesia, we are offering anxious patients or ones with intricate interventions, several other options for anesthesia: inhalosedation, intravenous drug sedation and even general anesthesia through naso-tracheal intubation.

Our clinics include multiple rooms dedicated exclusively to implantology and oral surgery, as well as operating blocks, equipped with everything that is needed for safe and painless interventions under local anesthesia. Postoperative rooms are modern and comfortable, so the patients can feel protected and even spoiled, their surgical experience being unique in this domain.

Dental RVG SCAN represents the golden standard in dental disorder investigation and diagnosis. We own such scanner which offer results in different volumes, from the smallest, when working in isolated areas to ones that comprise the whole when upper and lower jaws implants cases or high maxillofacial region disorders. Small radiation dose and images with special resolution recommend two dimensional investigations conducted at Indo american as being highly valuable for the treatment equation.

Any existing problem and disorder in teeth level, diagnosis as well as treatment options, main and recommended one, as well as alternative ones, are explained in detail and substantiated to the patient, with an adequate language according with his level of medical terms understanding during the specialty consultation session that lasts approximately 2 hours. The cost for this important session, which includes all investigations, including dental tomography is zero for patients who choose to undergo treatments at INDO AMERICAN DENTAL HOSPITAL.

Dental implants serve their purpose perfectly, as artificial roots, for many decades, placing within bone being carried out by experienced specialists with advanced technology. Implants still require attention and special care, being properly and constantly cleaned by the patient at home and periodically and professionally by doctors or specialized hygienists in implant cleaning within the office. Smoking and lack of hygiene represent the main enemies of dental implants.

However, professional experience is decisive when choosing a doctor or clinic where you would like to be treated. That is why, words can be useless and the best thing is to be personally convinced, by scheduling an appointment over the telephone or through our website form.
