Implantology
A dental implant is an artificial tooth root replacement and is used in prosthetic dentistry to support restorations that resemble a tooth or group of teeth.
Today implantology is an odontoiatric branch in full expansion. Specialists have found documents that mention about dental implants made by Chinese, Egyptians and Incas starting from 3000 years ago.
In Italy in the museum Cornetta stands a etruscan implant system consisting of a cow tooth inserted in a cellular, fixed by a ring of gold, witch continues with a link and another gold ring.
Today implantology reached a high scientific level and with the adoption of technics and methods extensively tested, we can guarantee long lasting results. Rejection, which is a defense of the organism in front of a foreign body is not happening any more because today’s materials go unnoticed by the body.
With an accurate visit and the help of appropriate diagnostic tools, like panoramic x-rays or dentalscan we are able to decide if it is possible to schedule or not a secure operation with the guarantee of time lasting.
Frequently our patients are elderly persons with paradontosys or with deficient bone. Today we can solve the problem of lack of bone with regeneration and reconstruction technics which allow create the bone and position the implants later on. Therefore we can say that if there are no clinical problems it is possible to put implants at any age because we are able to reconstruct the lost bone.
You recognize that tooth is implanted?
Is it painful operation? Absolutely NO! Besides the little nuisance of the first little anesthetic injection, the patient never feels any pain, the modern anesthetics are able to go through the operation without any pain. After the operation there could be swelling or emathoma which are not complications but that could happen and that the patient should be aware of.
How long it takes? The time needed does not depend on the number of implants but by the quality of bone and the type of implant and metodology used. CISO has the technics and the equipments for both systems: the traditional BIFASIC and the new MONOFASIC or IMMEDIATE LOAD.
