Dental implant surgery

Dental implant surgery is one of the advanced medical solutions for permanently and effectively restoring lost teeth. Ibn Sina Clinics offer the latest technologies used in dental implant procedures to ensure natural, long-lasting results. The procedure is carried out according to precise medical standards to achieve the highest success rates and comfort for patients.

What is a Dental implant surgery?

A dental implant procedure is a surgical process where a titanium metal implant is placed into the jawbone to replace the lost tooth root. After a healing period, a crown or bridge is placed over the implant, making the new tooth look natural and align with the other teeth.

Reasons for opting for dental implants

Dental implants are an effective solution for replacing missing teeth, offering a natural appearance and functionality similar to the original teeth. Many individuals choose this procedure for various reasons, including:

• Replacing lost teeth
  Teeth may be lost due to severe decay or chronic gum infections, accidents, or injuries.

• Aesthetic improvement and smile enhancement
  Dental implants help improve facial symmetry and enhance the smile, boosting self-confidence and filling gaps between teeth.

• Maintaining jawbone health
  Losing teeth can lead to jawbone deterioration over time. Implants stimulate bone growth, maintaining bone strength and density, and prevent changes in facial structure caused by bone shrinkage.

• Improving oral and chewing functions
  Dental implants restore the ability to chew solid foods and help prevent digestive issues caused by poor chewing due to missing teeth.

• A more permanent and stable solution compared to removable dentures
  Unlike removable dentures, dental implants are permanent, providing higher stability and eliminating the need for adhesives or removal for cleaning.

• Preventing problems with neighboring teeth
  Unlike traditional bridges, implants don’t affect surrounding teeth and help maintain their health.

• Long-lasting comfort and convenience
  Implants don’t cause discomfort while eating or speaking and require minimal maintenance, similar to natural teeth.

If you’re suffering from missing teeth and looking for a permanent and effective solution, dental implants at Ibn Sina Clinics provide you with the most advanced technology to restore your smile with confidence and comfort.

Types of dental implant surgery at Ibn Sina Clinics

Ibn Sina Clinics offer advanced and varied dental implant techniques, with the right type chosen for each case based on bone condition and the number of missing teeth. Below are the main types of available dental implant procedures:

1. Traditional Dental Implants
   The most common approach to dental implants. It requires a recovery period of 3 to 6 months for the implant to fuse with the jawbone.

2. Immediate Dental Implants
   The implant and temporary crown are placed during the same session, reducing the number of clinic visits and speeding up the process.

3. Computer-guided (robotic) Dental Implants
   Using 3D imaging technology to accurately determine the best placement for the implant, reducing surgical intervention and enhancing healing time.

4. Minimally Invasive Dental Implants
   Using advanced techniques to minimize gum incisions, reducing pain, swelling, and recovery time.

5. Overdentures Supported by Implants
   Suitable for cases requiring replacement of a full set of teeth, supported by fewer implants, offering higher stability than traditional removable dentures.

6. All-on-4 and All-on-6 Dental Implants
   Involves placing 4 or 6 implants to support a full set of teeth in the upper or lower jaw, offering a cost-effective solution for full tooth replacement.

7. Zygomatic Implants
   For cases with severe bone loss in the upper jaw, the implants are placed in the cheekbone instead of the jaw, providing an excellent alternative to traditional bone grafting.

Steps in the dental implant procedure

The dental implant procedure at Ibn Sina Clinics follows a well-planned process to ensure the highest success rate:

1. Examination and Diagnosis
   A dental exam and X-rays are taken to assess bone condition and formulate a treatment plan.

2. Preparing the Jawbone
   If there is insufficient bone density, bone grafting is done to support the implant.

3. Implant Placement
   The titanium implant is placed into the jawbone under local anesthesia.

4. Healing and Recovery
   The jawbone fuses with the implant over a 3 to 6-month period.

5. Abutment and Crown Placement
   After bone healing, the crown is placed on the implant to match the appearance of natural teeth.

Recovery after Dental Implant Surgery

Dental implants are an effective solution for replacing lost teeth, but it is important to follow post-surgery care instructions for a smooth recovery and successful results. Ibn Sina Clinics offer a comprehensive recovery plan after implant surgery to ensure the best outcomes.

Recovery time
Recovery time typically ranges from 3 to 6 months for full bone integration, with some procedures like immediate implants reducing recovery duration.

Immediate post-surgery instructions
Rest for the first 24 hours and avoid touching or pressing on the implant site. Apply cold compresses to reduce swelling and refrain from smoking or drinking alcohol.

Oral hygiene after dental implants
Gently brush the teeth with a soft-bristled toothbrush and avoid direct brushing near the implant in the initial days. Use the prescribed mouthwash to prevent infections.

Diet after surgery
Consume soft foods like soups, yogurt, and juices for the first week and avoid hard or crunchy foods that may pressure the implant.

Common recovery symptoms

• Swelling may occur in the first 48 hours but will improve gradually.

• Mild pain can be controlled with prescribed painkillers.

• Mild bleeding may occur in the first few hours but will stop naturally.

Factors that affect recovery speed

• Bone quality: Stronger, denser bone leads to faster integration with the implant.

• Adhering to the doctor’s instructions improves success.

• General health: Chronic diseases like diabetes may affect healing.
