Thus, it becomes a necessity for those who are afraid to smile, cannot enjoy their favorite foods or live with the discomfort of a mobile prosthesis. This type of prosthesis replaces natural teeth without problems, being made of aesthetic materials that manage to perfectly imitate the shape and color of the teeth.

This type of prosthesis replaces natural teeth without problems, being made of aesthetic materials that manage to perfectly imitate the shape and color of the teeth. At Dent OP we analyze each case very carefully, depending on the dental X-ray and the discussion with the patient. Most of the time we notice that the teeth cannot be saved, their mobility being in a severe stage, with aesthetic disorders and chewing.

Is fixed teeth on implants recommended for people suffering from periodontal disease?This is, in fact, the primary indication given by doctors. The fixed dental prosthesis technique on dental implants is recommended for all patients whose teeth are affected by periodontal disease. First, the affected teeth are extracted, the local infection is cleaned, the implants are placed, and bone grafting is performed to remodel the affected bone – all of these are done in a single session.

Is the anesthesia done during the intervention local or total? We usually use local anesthesia, but if we perform the intervention with fixed teeth on dental implants in 24 hours, we also use conscious sedation, another anesthesia technique that allows the treatment to be carried out without pain or fear.We usually use local anesthesia, but if we perform the intervention with fixed teeth on dental implants in 24 hours, we also use conscious sedation, another anesthesia technique that allows the treatment to be carried out without pain or fear.Conscious sedation involves the controlled and monitored injection into the vein of substances such as midazolam or propofol, which have the role of relaxing the patient and eliminating any trace of fear or discomfort. The patient is not completely asleep, as in the case of general anesthesia, but he can fall asleep in places and thus the patient is induced a state of tranquility. Conscious sedation involves the controlled and monitored injection into the vein of substances such as midazolam or propofol, which have the role of relaxing the patient and eliminating any trace of fear or discomfort. The patient is not completely asleep, as in the case of general anesthesia, but he can fall asleep in places and thus the patient is induced a state of tranquility. We apply sedation to relax and detach from everything that happens during the intervention and we also administer some substances with an analgesic and anti-inflammatory role. Also, conscious sedation has a variable retrograde amnesia effect – this translates into the fact that some patients do not remember the steps of the intervention. The technique can be used in any type of treatment, whether we are talking about the treatment of a simple cavity or more complicated treatments, such as implantology.

• What to do if the patient experiences gingival retraction? What does the treatment consist of?

What to do if the patient experiences gingival retraction? What does the treatment consist of? If the patient has gingival retractions, the gum transplant intervention is performed. The intervention begins with the harvesting of a small fragment of gum from the palate (roof of the mouth), and will then be applied to the area of interest. This way we can cover the exposed roots of the teeth or improve the quality of the gums around the dental implants. After the intervention, it is recommended to avoid the following: spicy foods, fizzy juices, citrus fruits. Also, a diet with a soft semi-liquid diet is indicated in the first week after the intervention. If the patient has gingival retractions, the gum transplant intervention is performed.

Is it advisable to perform extractions and dental implants in the same session? If so, why? Are there no risks? Shouldn’t the gum heal after extractions? In most situations, it is even advisable for the dental implant to be inserted in the same session as the tooth extraction, as long as the bone allows it. In this way we can speed up the waiting period until we can fix a crown on that implant. With the addition of bone we can ensure a better healing of the bone and gum after tooth extraction and insertion of the dental implant.

It is advisable to do it on the right side, on the left side or bilaterally if a long period of time after the extraction of molars or premolars. long period of time after the extraction of molars or premolars. After tooth extraction, the bone atrophies in the remaining areas, decreases in height and does not allow the insertion of dental implants. In other words, if we were to insert a 10 mm long implant into a bone 2-4 mm high, we would directly perforate the cavity of the maxillary sinus and enter the maxillary sinus with the implant. This incident can lead to maxillary sinusitis or even implant integration failure. In order for this to be prevented, bone of animal origin is added to that area, thermally and biologically processed, which will completely surround the implant along its entire length, with the intraoperative lifting of the maxillary sinus membrane.

• What is the origin of the bone that is used in bone additions or sinus lift?

What is the origin of the bone that is used in bone additions or sinus lift? Most of the time, the bone used is of animal origin, more precisely of porcine origin. It is thermally, chemically and biologically processed, in the form of granules with a diameter of 1 mm. These granules are mixed intraoperatively with the growth factors collected from the patient’s plasma (by the PRF technique) and applied to the area of interest to increase the thickness or height of the bone.

However, if the patient uses drugs such as bisphosphonates for osteoporosis, surgical maneuvers such as tooth extraction or the insertion of dental implants are totally contraindicated because they can lead to serious complications. In order to benefit from dental implants, however, the patient must interrupt the treatment for a period of at least 6 months and then perform a special blood test known as Beta Cross Laps that will indicate if bone metabolism is restored.
