Dental implant
A Dental
Implant Bangkok is an artificial tooth
root replacement and is used in prosthetic dentist.
There are several types. The most widely accepted
and successful is the osseointegrated Dental
Implant Bangkok, based on the discovery
by Swedish Professor Per-Ingvar Br?nemark that titanium
could be successfully incorporated into bone when
osteoblasts grow on and into the rough surface of
the dental implanted titanium. This forms a structural
and functional connection between the living bone
and the dental implant. A variation on the dental
implant procedure is the dental implant-supported
bridge, or dental implant-supported denture.
History – Dental
Implant Bangkok
The Mayan civilization has been shown to have used
the earliest known examples of endosseous Dental
Implant Bangkok (dental implants embedded
into bone), dating back over 1,350 years before
the famous Per Br?nemark started working with titanium.
Whilst excavating Mayan burial sites in Honduras
in 1931 archaeologists found a fragment of mandible
of Mayan origin, dating from about 600 AD. This
mandible, which is considered to be that of a woman
in her twenties, had three tooth shaped pieces of
shell placed into the sockets of three missing lower
incisor teeth. For forty years the archaeological
world considered that these shells were placed after
death in a manner also observed in the ancient Egyptians.
However in 1970 a Brazilian dental academic, Professor
Amadeo Bobbio studied the mandibular specimen and
took a series of radiographs. He noted compact bone
formation around two of the dental implants which
led him to conclude that the dental implants were
placed during life.

In the 1950s research was being conducted at Cambridge
University in England to study blood flow in vivo.
These workers devised a method of constructing a
chamber of titanium which was then embedded into
the soft tissue of the ears of rabbits. In 1952
the Swedish orthopaedic surgeon, P I Br?nemark,
was interested in studying bone healing and regeneration,
and adopted the Cambridge designed ‘rabbit
ear chamber’ for use in the rabbit femur.
Following several months of study he attempted to
retrieve these expensive chambers from the rabbits
and found that he was unable to remove them. Per
Br?nemark observed that bone had grown into such
close approximity with the titanium that it effectively
adhered to the metal. Br?nemark carried out many
further studies into this phenomenon, using both
animal and human subjects, which all confirmed this
unique property of titanium.
Although he had originally considered that the
first work should centre on knee and hip surgery,
Br?nemark finally decided that the mouth was more
accessible for continued clinical observations and
the high rate of edentulism in the general population
offered more subjects for widespread study. He termed
the clinically observed adherence of bone with titanium
as ‘osseointegration’. In 1965 Br?nemark,
who was by then the Professor of Anatomy at Gothenburg
University in Sweden, placed the first titanium
dental implant into a human volunteer who was a
Swede named G?sta Larrson.
Over the next fourteen years Br?nemark published
many studies on the use of titanium in dental implantology
until in 1978 he entered into a commercial partnership
with the Swedish defence company, Bofors AB for
the development and marketing of his dental implants.
With Bofors (later to become Nobel Industries) as
the parent company, Nobelpharma AB (later to be
renamed Nobel Biocare) was founded in 1981 to focus
on dental implantology. To the present day over
7 million Br?nemark System dental implants have
now been placed and hundreds of other companies
produce dental implants.
Procedure – Dental
Implant Bangkok
A typical Dental
Implant Bangkok consists of a titanium
screw, with a roughened surface. This surface is
treated either by plasma spraying, etching or sandblasting
to increase the integration potential of the dental
implant. At edentulous (without teeth) jaw sites,
a pilot hole is bored into the recipient bone, taking
care to avoid vital structures (in particular the
inferior alveolar nerve within the mandible).
This pilot hole is then expanded by using progressively
wider drills. Care is taken not to damage the osteoblast
cells by overheating. A cooling saline spray keeps
the temperature of the bone to below 47 degrees
Celsius (approximately 117 degrees Fahrenheit).
The dental implant screw can be self-tapping, and
is screwed into place at a precise torque so as
not to overload the surrounding bone. Once in the
bone, a cover screw is placed and the operation
site is allowed to heal for a few months for integration
to occur.
After some months the Dental
Implant Bangkok is uncovered and a healing
abutment and temporary crown is placed onto the
dental implant. This encourages the gum to grow
in the right scalloped shape to approximate a natural
tooth's gums and allows assessment of the final
aesthetics of the restored tooth. Once this has
occurred a permanent crown will be constructed and
placed on the Dental
Implant Bangkok.
An increasingly common strategy to preserve bone
and reduce treatment times includes the placement
of a dental implant into a recent extraction site.
In addition, immediate loading is becoming more
common as success rates for this procedure are now
acceptable. This can cut months off the treatment
time and in some cases a prosthetic tooth can be
attached to the dental implants at the same time
as the surgery to place the dental implants.
Complementary procedures – Dental
Implant Bangkok
Sinus lifting is a common surgical intervention
nowadays. The oral surgeon thickens the adequate
part of atrophic maxilla towards the sinus with
the help of bone transplantation or bone expletive
substance and as a result enables the dental implantation.
Bone replacement will be necessary in case of lack
of adequately thick bone, which could hold the dental
implant. Substances used during the process of bone
replacement can be the own bone of the patient (auto
transplantation) or artificially produced bone expletive
substance. The intervention can be carried out in
the maxilla and mandible as well.
Considerations – Dental
Implant Bangkok
For dental implant procedure to work, there must
be enough bone in the jaw, and the bone has to be
strong enough to hold and support the Dental
Implant Bangkok. If there is not enough
bone, more may need to be added with a procedure
called bone augmentation. In addition, natural teeth
and supporting tissues near where the dental implant
will be placed must be in good health.
In all cases, what must be addressed is the functional
aspect of the final dental implant restoration,
the final occlusion. How much force per area is
being placed on the bone dental implant interface?
Dental Implant
Bangkok loads from chewing and parafunction
can exceed the physio biomechanic tolerance of the
dental implant bone interface and/or the titanium
material itself, causing failure. This can be failure
of the dental implant itself (fracture) or bone
loss, a "melting" of the surrounding bone.
The restorative dentist must first determine what
type of prosthesis will be fabricated. Only then
can the specific dental implant requirements including
number, length, diameter, and thread pattern be
determined. In other words, the case must be reversed
engineered by the restoring dentist prior to the
surgery. If bone volume or density is inadequate,
a bone graft procedure must be considered first.
Computer simulation software based on CAT scan
data allows virtual dental implant surgical placement
based on a barium impregnated prototype of the final
prosthesis. This predicts vital anatomy, bone quality,
dental implant characteristics, the need for bone
grafting, and maximizing the dental implant bone
surface area for the treatment case creating a high
level of predictability. Computer CAD/CAM milled
or stereo lithography based drill guides can be
developed for the dental implant surgeon to facilitate
proper dental implant placement based on the final
prosthesis occlusion and aesthetics.
Success rates – Dental
Implant Bangkok
Dental Implant
Bangkok success is related to operator
skill, quality and quantity of the bone available
at the site, and also to the patient's oral hygiene.
Various studies have found the 5 year success rate
of dental implants to be between 75-95%. Patients
who smoke experience significantly poorer success
rates.
Failure – Dental
Implant Bangkok
Failure of a dental implant is usually related
to failure to osseointegrate correctly. A dental
implant is considered to be a failure if it is lost,
mobile or shows peri-dental implant bone loss of
greater than one mm in the first year after dental
implanting and greater than 0.2mm a year after that.
Dental implants are not susceptible to dental caries
but they can develop a periodontal condition called
peri-dental implantitis where correct oral hygiene
routines have not been followed. Risk of failure
is increased in smokers. For this reason dental
implants are frequently placed only after a patient
has stopped smoking as the treatment is very expensive.
More rarely, an dental implant may fail because
of poor positioning at the time of surgery, or may
be overloaded initially causing failure to integrate.
Contraindications – Dental
Implant Bangkok
There are no absolute contraindications to dental
implant dentist, however there are some systemic,
behavioral and anatomic considerations that should
be considered.
Particularly for mandibular (lower jaw) dental
implants, especially in the vicinity of the mental
foramen (MF), there must be sufficient alveolar
bone above the inferior alveolar canal or IAC (which
acts as the conduit for the neurovascular bundle
carrying the inferior alveolar nerve or IAN). The
standard of care for mandibular dental implants
calls for 3D or cone beam X-ray imaging (computer
assisted tomography) because 3D enables precise
measurements to 0.1mm by the dental implantologist,
followed by precision treatment planning with surgical
guides. Patients should be referred to an appropriate
cone beam imaging center if 3D is not available
in the dental implantologist's practice.
Failure to precisely locate the IAN and MF invites
surgical insult by the drills and the dental implant
itself. Such insult may cause irreparable damage
to the nerve, often felt as a paresthesia (numbness)
or dysesthesia (painful numbness) of the gum, lip
and chin. This condition may persist for life.
Uncontrolled type II diabetes is a significant
relative contraindication as healing following any
type of surgical procedure is delayed due to poor
peripheral blood circulation. Anatomic considerations
include the volume and height of bone available.
Often an ancillary procedure known as a block graft
or sinus augmentation are needed to provide enough
bone for successful dental implant placement.
There is new information about bisphosphonates
(taken for osteoporosis and certain forms of breast
cancer) which put patients at a higher risk of developing
a delayed healing syndrome called osteonecrosis.
Dental implants may be contraindicated in patients
who take this class of drug.
Bruxism (tooth clenching or grinding) is another
contraindication. The forces generated during bruxism
are particularly detrimental to dental implants
while bone is healing; micromovements in the dental
implant positioning are associated with increased
rates of dental implant failure. Bruxism continues
to pose a threat to dental implants throughout the
life of the recipient. Natural teeth contain a periodontal
ligament allowing each tooth to move and absorb
shock in response to vertical and horizontal forces.
Once replaced by dental implants, this ligament
is lost and teeth are immovably anchored directly
into the jaw bone. This problem can be minimized
by wearing a custom made mouthguard (such an NTI
appliance) at night.
The market – Dental
Implant Bangkok
There are over 100 dental implant companies available
on the U.S. market. Notable companies include BioHorizons,
Nobel Biocare, Straumann, Osteo-Ti, 3i, Zimmer,
Astra Tech, Ankylos, Dental implant Direct, Intra-Lock,
Lifecore, and Bio-Lok.
Specialists such as oral and maxillofacial surgeons
and periodontists play a role in the placement of
dental implant fixtures, however these procedures
are not beyond the scope of general dentists or
prosthodontists. Regardless of who places the Dental
Implant Bangkok, it is most appropriate
for either a prosthodontist or general dentist to
initiate and coordinate dental implant service,
since they can best assess the merits of this treatment
against other prosthetic options.
Cost – Dental
Implant Bangkok
The price of dental implants varies greatly between
countries. In the United Kingdom, a single tooth
dental implant generally costs around ?2000. Similarly,
in the United States, dental implants average around
$2500, in addition to the cost of the crown. The
cost of full mouth reconstructions with dental implants
begin around $12000 per arch, and can approach $50000,
depending on the complexity of the case. In Israel,
single dental implants begin around 5000 NIS, comparable
to Turkey, where they begin around $800. Dental
implants performed in Colombia cost around $2000
