Much has been said about the possibilities to restore the teeth. But what is the best option? Mobile or fixed prosthesis implant?
the first step is to know the two procedures. The surgeon-dentist and dental implant Simplan Technical Director, Dr. Gabriel Lembo, explains each of the
methods.
mobile Prosthesis: better known as dentures and as the name says, it is not fixed in the teeth and mouth may be withdrawn at any time. The appearance is not natural, although, today, the production process is more modern and are sharp differences between a current prosthesis and a few years ago. Is a solution for the replacement of teeth that brings benefits, but not as much as the fixed prosthesis
.
fixed prosthesis implant: this is an invasive procedure, which consists in the insertion of titanium pins in place of the roots of the teeth lost. On top of the pins are docked fixed prostheses. And it is precisely because it is a fixed solution that the oral rehabilitation is advantageous, because the strength in chewing, comfort, cleanliness and aesthetics are similar to those of natural teeth. The entire procedure is calculated beforehand which ensures adequate adaptation to the patient to eat and smile without
fears.
the professional notes that are not in all cases that you can choose between a method or another. “Only one dental surgeon is able to indicate the best procedure, because each case is a case. It is important to understand the differences and benefits, but is more importantly consult a professional to receive the correct treatment, “says
.
the dental implant has no contraindication, and can be performed even in patients with systemic diseases such as diabetes and hypertension. Still according to Dr. Gabriel Lembo, Denture patients chew with about 20% of the strength of natural teeth, while patients with dental implant chew with about 85% of the strength of natural teeth, and can reach 95%
