Dental Implant

When a natural dental root is lost, it can be replaced with a dental implant. Dental implants are becoming a popular alternative to traditional, removable bridges and dentures.

Dental Implant replacement process

  • Oral checkup / X-ray to plan the proper treatment
  • Oral cleaning to prepare for dental implant surgery
  • Dental implant surgery by making a hole in the bone where the implant will be placed. The implant will be placed into the hole, and the incision is stitched closed.
  • After dental implants are placed and the jawbone has healed, permanent teeth can be built on top of them. For example, a crown or bridge.
  • Follow-up periodically

A dental implant is like an artificial tooth root that takes over the function of a real root.

Please note that some patients might need jawbone surgery before undergoing dental implant replacement.

The Age of Digital Dentistry “Endoscopic root canal treatment”

When your tooth has decayed or broken causing pain around your gum, extracting a tooth may not be the best solution once you know the way. Root Canal Treatment allows you to keep your tooth after the procedure.

Thanks to the technology and invention that introduce the Endoscopic Root Canal to enhance the treatment capability, and reduce the complications.

WHAT IS ROOT CANAL TREATMENT?

Root Canal Treatment uses to repair a tooth that badly decayed or infected by removing the damaged nerve and pulp to clear all infectious tissue or clean it. Preserving a natural tooth, the dentist seals the root canal as the same.

WHEN SHOULD I TREAT MY ROOT CANAL?

  • Decayed, broken, chipped, cracked tooth damaged to inner tooth layer or pulp
  • You feel a serious toothache especially during the night
  • Serious accident cause trauma to the tooth
  • Your tooth’s color has changed
  • Swelling in the gums or face

ENDOSCOPIC ROOT CANAL TREATMENT

Nowadays, there’s technology facilitating root canal treatment (Dental Operating Microscope: DOM) which allows dentists to see more detail, improving accuracy, especially in a more challenging case due to the complication of canals within a tooth which cannot be seen by human eye. So, the endoscopic procedure enhances more effectiveness of root canal treatment.

BENEFITS OF ENDOSCOPIC ROOT CANAL TREATMENT

  • Higher resolution better visualization
  • Assist your dentist to identify the infected root canal
    Allows your dentist to see possible disease or other abnormalities not being seen by human eyes
  • Instead of extracting a tooth, a patient can preserve a natural tooth
    After receiving the root canal treatment, patients can chew as similar to the natural tooth compared to the chewing by a denture. They don’t require much adjustment because the technologies itself that help reduce complications and ensure the outcomes.

Digital Dentistry: A More Precise & Less Invasive Implant Placement Procedure

DIGITAL DENTISTRY: A MORE PRECISE & LESS INVASIVE IMPLANT PLACEMENT PROCEDURE

Dental Implant is an excellent way to replace a missing tooth. This technique became a widespread and acceptable treatment modality and can provide a beautiful, natural-looking appearance. This procedure is safe; however, it requires fusing the implants into the jaw through oral surgery which can damage nearby vital structures.

Fortunately, the use of digital dentistry instead of the traditional technique enables the dentist to know the exact location of vital structures including nerves, teeth roots, bone and sinuses. This can reduce the risk of unexpected complications during surgery as well as allowing the dentist to know exactly where the implant should be placed.

The Role of Digital Dentistry in Implant Surgery

Nowadays, we are very lucky that the digital age of dentistry has brought more innovative dental techniques. Furthermore, dental implant placement is more efficient with The Computer-Guided Implant Surgery which was designed to be more precise and less invasive.

The Computer-Guided Implant Surgery is a great advancement in dental implant surgery and treatment planning. This system gathers accurate information about the anatomy of the jaw in 3D presentation. The dentist is able to locate and identify important internal structures through in 3D as well as gather information about bone quality and quantity. The detailed scan images of the oral structures can be used to explain the dental implant procedure to patient and allow the dentist to make a precise treatment plan and create a more accurate dental implant placement.

Moreover, studies found that an error of The Computer-Guided Implant Surgery can occur averagely 0.7-1 mm which is a very rare error compared to conventional method of implantation. This process provides greater patient satisfaction, health, and recovery; and it helps to simplify the treatment process.

Computer-Guided Implant Surgery: How the Process Works?

  • The dentist evaluates the site for dental implant placement.
  • Create a 3D digital scan of the patient’s oral structure using Intraoral Scanner.
  • Then the 3D scanned images will be used for planning implant placement.
  • With computer-guidance, the dentist can determine the very best placement for the implant.

Advantages of Computer-Guided Implant Surgery

  • Prevent critical vital structures injuries.
  • The time required for implant surgery can be substantially reduced.
  • Increase the accuracy of implant placement.
  • Creates a good understanding of the treatment plan between dentist and patient.
    However, the success of implant surgery and placement will not be achieved by the computer program alone, but it is important to be performed by an experienced dentist for best results.
