Front teeth implantation

Losing front teeth significantly reduces a person's quality of life. It not only impairs chewing of food, but also spoils the appearance of your smile and also affects the clarity of speech. Often the restoration of lost teeth is carried out using dental implantation. This method involves placing an artificial tooth root. The procedure is recommended in cases where teeth are lost due to injury, disease or root damage.

Requirements for implantation of maxillary anterior teeth

Implantation of anterior teeth requires special diagnosis and planning due to the aesthetic significance of this area. One-stage implantation is often used with the installation of an implant immediately after tooth extraction, which promotes rapid recovery. In cases of bone tissue atrophy, osteoplasty is necessary before installing an implant.

To achieve a positive result, it is important to choose the right implant. Doctors often prefer thin and long options for reliable fixation in the gums. The best option is biocompatible zirconium implants that are not visible through the gums.

Titanium models can also be used. They are durable, resistant to mechanical stress and chemical attack.

Installing anterior dental implants requires taking into account certain features. The bone tissue in this area is less dense and stable, which complicates the implantation process. In this case, preliminary bone grafting is required.

The low alveolar ridge in some patients and the proximity to the maxillary sinuses increase the complexity and risks of the procedure. Long-term osseointegration is also required, which lasts 3-4 months. Often a sinus lift is performed before implantation. Usually this stage and installation of the implant occur in one visit to the doctor.

How much does it cost to insert upper front teeth? The cost of the operation depends on three factors: the materials used, the qualifications of the dentist, and the condition of the patient’s bone tissue.

Benefits of the procedure

  • Durability. Properly installed implants can last for decades, sometimes throughout life
  • Aesthetics. Artificial teeth look like natural teeth, provide an attractive smile and give the patient self-confidence
  • Protection of adjacent teeth. Implantation does not require treatment or trauma to adjacent healthy teeth, unlike the installation of dental bridges
  • Comfort and naturalness. Implants function like natural teeth, without causing discomfort when eating or talking
  • Prevention of bone tissue atrophy. Implants help maintain the health of the jaw bone tissue and prevent its atrophy
  • In case of damage, the crown on the implant can be easily replaced without affecting the adjacent teeth

Osteoplasty before implantation

Osteoplasty is not always required before installing an implant in the anterior jaw. The procedure is prescribed if the volume of bone tissue is not enough to securely secure the implant. Indications include:

  • Long-term tooth root loss
  • Jaw injuries
  • Osteomyelitis

Before dental implantation, it is important to conduct a comprehensive examination of the patient.

General information about the procedure

Contraindications to implantation of anterior teeth

There are certain contraindications for installing implants in the front of the mouth. These include:

  • Strengthened work of the masticatory muscles
  • Significant bite problems
  • Active inflammatory processes in the tissues surrounding the teeth
  • Under 18 years of age
  • Pregnancy
  • Serious chronic and neurological diseases

Also during surgery, the risk of bleeding increases in patients with bleeding disorders. People suffering from diabetes, cancer, infectious diseases, including AIDS and the active phase of tuberculosis, may encounter problems with implant healing and worsening infectious processes.

Preparation and the process of dental implantation of anterior teeth

Before installing an implant on a front tooth, careful preparation is required. It consists of the following stages:

  1. Choice of a clinic, visual examination, consultation with a therapist and orthopedic dentist. Doctors evaluate the condition of the mouth, bite, adjacent teeth and gums
  2. Instrumental research. Includes x-rays, panoramic images and computed tomography. They help the doctor determine the appropriate types of implants and surgical technique
  3. Laboratory tests. Includes a general blood test and additional studies depending on the individual characteristics of the patient
  4. Professional teeth cleaning, treatment of caries, periodontitis, removal of damaged molars. In some cases, bone grafting is required

The process of installing a front tooth involves dividing the gums, forming a socket for the implant, screwing in the implant, installing a plug and applying sutures. Engraftment of the structure is carried out within 3-6 months.

After time, the doctor removes the plug and screws the former into the implant to create natural gum contours. It must be worn for 1-2 weeks, after which a permanent abutment is installed. It serves as a connecting element between the implant and the crown. At the last stage, the doctor fixes the crowns to the already installed implants.

Implantation of lower front teeth

When it comes to implanting lower front teeth, the process is much simpler. The density of bone tissue in the lower jaw is higher, which facilitates implantation and reduces the period of osseointegration to 2-3 months.

A sinus lift procedure is required less frequently, only in cases of significant bone loss. If there is slight atrophy, the specialist will select the optimal type of implant for installation.

Implant care

To ensure that artificial teeth look flawless for as long as possible, it is important to follow a number of recommendations:

  1. Brush your teeth twice a day using a soft toothbrush and anti-caries toothpaste
  2. Use dental floss to remove food debris and plaque between teeth and implants
  3. Avoid solid foods, otherwise you may damage the implants or the tissue around them
  4. Stop smoking, as it negatively affects blood circulation and can cause implant rejection
  5. Visit your dentist regularly to monitor the healing process
  6. Reduce physical and psychological stress, as stress slows down the healing process

Following these simple rules will help maintain the health of your implants and prevent complications.

Consequences of implantation of anterior teeth

If medical protocols are followed, the risk of complications after implantation of anterior teeth is 1-2%. The main risk factors include the individual characteristics of the patient, the use of low-quality materials, medical errors, as well as poor care and smoking on the part of the patient.

Early complications include:

  • Infections
  • Bleeding
  • Increased body temperature
  • Swelling at the surgical site
  • Nerve damage

Late complications include peri-implantitis and implant rejection. Peri-implantitis is manifested by pain, swelling, purulent discharge and can lead to loss of the implant. Failure of an artificial tooth is characterized by mobility, pain, inflammation and can occur due to a variety of reasons, including disease and poor care.

Important! The onset of complications is indicated by symptoms such as persistent pain, persistent swelling, bad breath, pus discharge, fever, bleeding and numbness in the surgical area, as well as any changes in the condition of the implant.

If such signs appear, you should immediately consult a doctor to diagnose and correct the problems that have arisen. Timely help will help avoid serious consequences.

Which implants are best for the front teeth?

To achieve the best appearance and strength, doctors place narrow and long anterior implants that can be mounted at different angles. They are made from the following materials:

1
Titanium alloys of classes 4 and 5 are durable and hypoallergenic, but can show through the gums
2
Pressed ceramics – used for crowns, they are durable and aesthetically pleasing, compatible only with zirconium abutments
3
Zirconium dioxide is a white and durable material, less aesthetically pleasing than ceramics
4
The combination of zirconium dioxide and aluminum oxide is highly durable and does not cause allergies.
5
Ceramic coated zirconia – combines durability and aesthetics at a more affordable price
6
Ceramic metal is a less preferable option due to the high likelihood of color change over time
7
Roxolid (a mixture of titanium and zirconium dioxide) – accelerates the process of osseointegration, suitable for thin implants

Abutments can be either integrated with the implant or removable. They are made from materials that match the color of natural teeth.

What implants are placed on the upper and lower front teeth? In choosing a specific implant model, a significant role is played by the individual characteristics of the patient, the quality of the material, its survival rate and aesthetic characteristics.

Among the well-known brands offering products for anterior dental implants are Straumann, Nobel and Hi TEC. Their products are highly durable, quick to survive and have a lifetime warranty.
