Dental Implants

Replacement of missing teeth is a huge and evolving area of dentistry. Obviously the great variety in patients, the amount of teeth and the quality of the neighbouring teeth affect the specific treatment needs.

To simplify matters; missing teeth are replaced using bridges or implants. Bridges rely on the support of adjacent teeth where as implants have the benefit of relying only on themselves and any other teeth can remain untouched.

Dental Implants in Sydney

Dental Lounge dental implants are titanium screws of a specific size and shape that are delicately placed into the jaw. Once they have had time to heal and they are embedded strongly enough to support a new tooth or teeth are fabricated and placed in the site of your implant. Our dental implants in Sydney clinics are the best dentistry has to offer in reattaining what nature ideally meant for you.

Dental Implants Success

Success of an implant is affected by many things. Primarily however they depend on the amount and quality of bone at the intended site and the proper design of the subsequent restoration. If these two things are in place studies have shown the success rates to be around 97%-99% (Alberktsson 1986, Zarb et al 1996, Tarnow 1997, Branemark 2000)

Basically if infection or overloading the implant doesn't occur then the implant will work. Other factors that affect implant success are a) biocompatibility of the implant material i.e. titanium, b) the primary stability achieved at the placement, c) the shape of the flutes of the screw i.e. the surface area available, d) an undisturbed healing period and e) an appropriately designed final restoration.

It should be noted that while implant placement is a fantastic way to give you back teeth, it is a course of treatment that requires team work. Part of which is the participation of the patient with this is mind, smoking causes impairment of the microvasculature (small blood vessels that surrounds the implant).Therefore healing can be stifled leading to failure of the implants.
