What are digital guided Dental Implants?

Similar to conventional dental implants digital guided dental implants are titanium screws that are cylindrical in shape. It consists of two parts implant itself that acts as a root and the crown, which is placed on the top of it so that it performs the functions of the natural tooth. The material of the dental implants is biocompatible and placed surgically into the jawbone in place of a missing tooth. Dental Implant is a restorative option to replace non-functional, missing, or severely decayed teeth. Dental implants help to maintain face shape and prevent bone degradation caused by missing teeth. People are regaining the comfort and confidence to eat, speak, laugh, and enjoy life thanks to dental implants. Digital guided dental implants are biocompatible screws that act as roots of the tooth and a crown is then placed on the top of it that performs the functions of the tooth. This screw and crown are formed using digital technologies such as CAD/CAM and are surgically fixed into the jawbone.

Digital guided implant surgery

Three dimensional computer simulation is used to examine the bone health and nerve position during digital guided implant surgery. A dentist will be able to assess the health of the treatment area and plan surgery with few incisions using this information. In comparison to traditional implant surgery, there is substantially less discomfort with digital implant surgery because it focuses on making the smallest incision feasible. During the dental implant treatment, a guide is placed over the teeth to ensure that no nerves or teeth are damaged. Also, the guide is helpful to dentists in making tiny incisions for implants.

The Advantages of Digitally Guided Implants

Digital guided implants can make better visualization of key anatomical features can be achieved. Traditional surgical guides, on the other hand, can produce a predictable outcome but are more difficult to employ, especially in the absence of any anatomical references. Before surgery, detailed treatment planning can help to avoid or eliminate unexpected events. Digital guided implant surgery is less invasive and less bleeding possible. No sutures are required as it precisely cuts the necessary hard and soft tissue. Moreover, the time it takes to do implant surgery can often be significantly decreased, which is beneficial to the patient.

Is digital guided dental implants are more comfortable than other dental implants?

With traditional dental implants, the gum must be cut along the whole length of where the implants will be placed. This is why a growing number of people are opting for digital guided implants. Because 3DCT scans are used to assess the bone state and nerve position, digital implant surgery requires a little incision. Traditional dental implant surgery, on the other hand, necessitates a wide incision down the length of your gums to the bone which can be painful for most patients during the healing phase.

Maintenance

It is important to consider that maintenance of digital guided dental implants is necessary. Implants are precious and do require regular follow-up visits and clinical maintenance. Clinical management, as well as home management, is crucial. Oral hygiene regimens (brushing 3 times with correct techniques and flossing) must be followed religiously to keep the oral cavity bacteria and plaque-free. Incorporate super floss and interdental brushes as part of the oral hygiene regimen if required. The plaque and bacteria destroy soft and hard tissues within the oral cavity by producing inflammatory processes around and beneath the implant, making it lose and weak. It is, therefore, crucial to keep the teeth clean regularly.

But if you’re very nervous about the surgery, you have sedative options to make you more comfortable during the operation.
