Dental bone graft surgery complications

People must pay attention to their oral hygiene and protect their teeth. Bad teeth can bring a lot of inconvenience and even affect the health of the body, causing malnutrition due to the inability to eat many foods. When teeth are damaged, you can choose to have them implanted, which is a popular method nowadays. Although the price is high, the effect is very good. However, patients also need to understand the relevant content about the sequelae of dental bone grafting surgery.

1. Titanium metal, which is commonly used in planting, spontaneously forms a surface oxide film (Tio2) in air, water, and other electrolytes. It has excellent biocompatibility, is stable, and is harmless. Harmless to human body.

2. It takes a long time to complete dental implants: The treatment time is: from the consultation to the first surgery, it takes 2-3 months for the bone and implant to be tightly combined and then the upper restoration to be made. The treatment time may vary depending on the patient's alveolar bone morphology, oral condition, bite force, and the selected implant system. Some bone grafting cases require 6-9 months to complete, but with the improvement of implant systems and surgical methods, the treatment time is constantly decreasing.

3. Some side effects of implant surgery. Adverse reactions after surgery are generally autoimmune reactions.

Why is bone grafting necessary for dental implants?

Oral experts explain that if patients who want dental implants do not take care of their missing teeth, or if the teeth themselves have periodontitis, these can easily lead to alveolar bone atrophy. If the patient's alveolar bone is severely atrophied and he still wants to implant teeth, bone grafting may be needed. Experts say that bone grafting requires taking bone tissue from the patient or using artificial bone to increase the bone volume and meet the oral foundation required for dental implants before dental implant surgery can be performed.

The bone grafting process is much more complicated than dental implants, so it is recommended that patients, whether they want to get dentures or dental implants, fill the missing teeth as soon as possible for the sake of their own oral health to avoid a deterioration of the foundation. At the same time, bone grafting surgery must be performed in a large professional hospital to avoid unnecessary risks.

Experts remind you that dental implants have a wide range of indications for patients who have difficulty wearing traditional dentures, who cannot chew food, or who have special requirements for the beauty and functionality of dentures, or who are missing the ends and cannot undergo traditional fixed restorations. However, patients who undergo dental implants should be physically and mentally healthy, with established bone and tooth development, and good gum bone morphology and quality. At the same time, dental implant surgery must ensure that there is no obvious inflammation or lesions in the patient's mouth. Patients who undergo dental implants should not have organic diseases of various organs and osteoporosis.
