Dental implants are an innovative solution that is increasingly used in modern dentistry. Their use in reconstructing dental sequences and improving smile is often the best choice. Implant placement requires a detailed plan, basic preparation, and advanced technique to achieve a flawless result. However, there is still a small risk of implant rejection.

Why choose dental implants?

First of all, the patient must be thoroughly informed in order to make a decision in accordance with his or her wishes and real possibilities. Essentially, the installation of a dental implant is a technique that supstitutes the root of the missing teeth. Some time ago as a revolution, and today as a standard, dental implant is usually the best choice when reconstructing teeth and smiles.

The dental implant is a permanent solution and offers the same chewing efficiency as natural teeth with very little risk. The decision to install the implant can directly affect whether you will have a fixed remuneration (crown, bridge, …) or mobile compensation (partial or total denture), which completely changes the way you live, the comfort and quality of your life.

It should be known that there is no ideal age for implants, it is as long as the body and health condition give support to the surgical procedure, which is up to 70 years of age.

What causes the rejection of dental implants?

Detailed overview and analysis was carried out to assess the risks of infection, biocompatibility, and patient’s tissue status, in order to opt for the best plan of therapy and implantation technique.

The dental implant is made of titanium, a material that has been scientifically proven biocompatible with human tissue, so tissues do not consider it a foreign body. In this way, the risk of implant rejection is extremely small. However, preparation is mandatory, and the necessary precautions must always be taken to avoid unexpected reactions. Basically, the rate of success of dental implants is over 95%.
