Does dental implant have any effect?

Denture implant is a dental technique that helps restore chewing ability and aesthetics for people who have lost teeth
Each person has about 32 teeth in both the upper and lower jaw. Except for 4 wisdom teeth that may or may not grow in adulthood, the remaining teeth all play a very important role.
Some consequences when losing teeth such as:
Reduced chewing power: Losing teeth makes chewing and biting food difficult, leading to a restriction in nutrient absorption, increasing the risk of diseases about the gastrointestinal tract. Jaw resorption: Jaw bone density is maintained by stimulation when chewing force occurs. When the tooth is lost, the impact force is no longer, the jaw bone will gradually disappear. Long-term jaw bone loss, if you want to recover, you must perform a bone graft. Premature aging: When the process of jaw bone loss occurs, the cheeks will sink in, the facial skin will sag, causing wrinkles to appear. Affects surrounding teeth: When teeth are lost, adjacent teeth lose support, hindering chewing activities, causing temporomandibular disorders for a long time, jaw fatigue, neck muscle fatigue, teeth grinding... The front teeth are also subjected to chewing force, and for a long time, they will be protruded forward, affecting aesthetics. For the loss of front teeth will lead to incorrect pronunciation, slurred speech or windy speech. Losing teeth causes headaches: Losing teeth causes the remaining teeth to move, shift, chewing force acts on the teeth in an abnormal way, affecting the nerves connecting the two jaw bones. Difficulty in oral hygiene, low alveolar bone leading to receding gums, affecting eating preferences...

2. Is there any effect of denture implantation?


Is dental implant dangerous? Dental implant is a technique to restore lost teeth without affecting health. In contrast, the implantation of dentures also restores chewing ability, aesthetics and helps you feel more comfortable in eating, more confident in communication.
However, implantation of dentures needs to be done at a reputable and quality dentist, because if there is a mistake in the implementation process, the doctor with poor skills will cause some unwanted effects such as:
Gingivitis, inflammation of the roots: Because the patient does not clean his teeth, thoroughly treat the diseases left by the old teeth before planting new teeth. In addition, shortcomings in the technique of poorly skilled doctors can also create gaps between teeth, accumulating bacteria that cause infection for a long time. Pulp death: Too much tooth grinding causes invasion to the pulp, leading to pulp death in the long run. Misalignment: During the grinding process, fix the teeth and adjust the teeth if there are any errors that can affect the jaw structure, causing the bite to be deviated.

3. Methods of planting dentures


Currently, there are 3 methods of denture implantation that many people choose: removable dentures, fixed porcelain bridges, Implants,... Each method has its own techniques, advantages and disadvantages. Specifically:
3.1 Removable dentures Removable dentures are composed of a jaw base or a jaw with a similar shape to gums made of plastic or metal. The jaw base has the function of supporting the plastic or porcelain teeth at the top, which can be removed or inserted as needed.
Dental restorations with removable dentures are applied to cases where many teeth are lost or the elderly lose all their teeth. Accordingly, there are two types of dentures manufactured: partial removable dentures and fully removable dentures.
Advantages:
Simple and easy disassembly. No pain when disassembling. Low cost. Ensure basic, gentle chewing function. The base of the jaws and dentures are made from materials that are safe for the body. Cons:
Weak chewing force, can't chew hard, tough, and flexible foods. Because it is only fixed with metal hooks, it causes a feeling of entanglement and looseness. After a period of use, the jaw is easy to fall off when chewing. Wearing dentures for a long time can cause gum atrophy, open gums or even gingivitis, affecting adjacent real teeth. Do not prevent jaw bone loss caused by tooth loss. If the jaw base is not tight, it can cause bad breath. Need to clean after each meal and before going to bed causes many inconveniences. The lifespan of dentures is short, after 3-5 years, you have to start over. 3.2 Porcelain bridge This is a form of fixed dentures. To perform this method, the doctor will grind two adjacent healthy teeth, then take a picture of a porcelain bridge consisting of many porcelain teeth that are crafted together. After implanting dentures, customers can chew and bite easily without fear of falling or dislodging like removable dentures.
Advantages:
High aesthetic. More chewing function than removable dentures. Quite safe for the body. Cons:
There is a risk of tooth decay or periodontitis because 2 adjacent teeth must be worn to make abutments. In the long term, there is a situation of receding gums, exposing the roots of the teeth, which does not prevent the alveolar bone resorption process. Only applicable for cases of missing 1 tooth or a few teeth. It is easy to cause bad breath and lose confidence in communication. The cost is high but it has to be redone many times. The average tooth life is 7-10 years if well cared for. 3.3 Implant Dental Implant Currently, Implant is applied by many people when planting dentures
Implant is a method of fixed dentures to help restore chewing ability and the most comprehensive aesthetic today. When implanting teeth, the doctor will implant the Implant cylinder inside the jaw bone, then attach the Abutment joint and the crown of the porcelain tooth on top.
After the Implant post is implanted into the jaw bone, the bone will integrate itself into the surface of the cylinder, creating a solid grip for the denture. As a result, the teeth attached to the Implant pillar do not move when eating, drinking and talking.
Advantages:
No need to grind adjacent real teeth. Restore the ability to eat and chew almost like real teeth, helping you comfortably feel the full flavor of the food. Implant posts are made of safe materials with high mechanical properties and are perfectly compatible with the body. Preventing consequences caused by tooth loss such as: gingivitis, protrusion of opposite teeth, tooth decay, jaw bone loss, bad breath, gap between teeth, adjacent teeth are displaced. Applicable to all cases of tooth loss. Cons:
High cost of implantation, longer time for implant treatment than porcelain bridges, but only need to be done once because the tooth life is very high (over 20 years), even almost permanently if good care.
