What are dental implants, prices, types

Dental implants, also known as artificial dental implants, are not really planted with natural teeth, but through medical methods, pure titanium and other metals with high compatibility with human bone are precisely designed and manufactured into cylinders or other shapes similar to tooth roots, which are surgically implanted into the alveolar bone of the missing tooth area. Benefits of Artificial Dental Implants 1, Preservation of Healthy Neighboring Teeth Traditional dental bridges require grinding of the front and back adjacent teeth to fit dentures. Artificial dental implants (dental bridges) can create fixed dentures without destroying the real teeth. If there are many missing teeth, artificial dental implants can be used to support your removable dentures, providing better stability and chewing power than traditional removable dentures. 3. The dental implant procedure is performed under local anesthesia, and the whole procedure is almost painless. Step I First, the dentist will insert the titanium root into the flesh of the tooth to replace the lost tooth, and then sew the flesh together. Step II The next step is to cut through the flesh and place a base on the titanium root to allow for future placement of the denture. In some cases, the dentist may place the abutment at the first surgery. Step III Finally, your dentist will place your new teeth. As technology continues to improve, the new artificial teeth will look and feel like the adjacent teeth in size, shape and shade, making them indistinguishable from the real thing. The price of dental implants is generally high due to the high technology and the high technical requirements of the doctors. In addition, due to the difference in the economic level of each region, the price of dental implants also varies from region to region. At present, the price of domestic dental implants is generally around 6,000 yuan per piece, and the price of imported dental implants is generally more than 12,000, and in some areas the price of imported dental implants is even as high as 40,000 or 50,000 per piece.” The reason why the price of dental implants is higher is because the cost of dental implant process techniques as well as materials is quite high. In addition, the dental implant process also requires x-ray examination, clinical treatment, mechanic equipment and other costs are also quite high, which is the fundamental reason why the price of dental implants cannot be reduced. Compared to the price of imported dental implants, although the price of domestic dental implants is still low, the quality of imported dental implants (mainly in Europe and the United States) is more stable, the technology is more advanced, and the range of adaptation is wider. If the patient’s bone condition is very good, it is possible to choose a domestic implant, but the implant surgery is more complicated and the treatment time is longer. Types There are many types of implants, but the technology is very mature and there is no big difference.
