Immediate loading for dental implants – indications

Immediately loaded dental implants are a technique in which the procedure of placing a dental implant and fixed prosthesis is carried out more quickly. In this way, it helps patients regain their self-esteem and their smile without the need to visit the dentist’s office several times. Immediate loading means placing a prosthesis – usually temporary – on the implants immediately after surgery.

Here at the ImplArt Dental Clinic we perform implants with immediate loading. However, each case is assessed on its own merits to see if it is the most appropriate and safest way to ensure the success of each treatment. See more information below.

Learn more about the technique – indications

But can it be done in all cases?

The answer is no. The possibility of an immediately loaded implant depends on fulfilling pre-requisites that can only be ascertained at the time of implant insertion. In addition to checking all the preoperative X-rays and CT scans, there are factors related to the surgery itself. Thus, the final torque of the implant at the time of bone insertion must be verified. It must therefore be checked after the implant has been installed.

In addition, it is important to note that the ideal is always to wait for the dental implant to heal before loading it. The making of a final prosthesis certainly involves aesthetic and functional studies, which have their own timeframe for preparation and testing by the patient. Therefore, if immediate loading is possible, it should ideally only involve a temporary prosthesis. In this way, the final prosthesis can be made with the implants already healed, and the aesthetics and functionality can be studied in depth, without putting the newly inserted implants at risk.

Immediately loaded implants – indications

The dental implant technique with immediate loading can be carried out when bone quantity and quality are normal and also when occlusal habits are favorable for the procedure so that there is no overload from chewing on the site.

Therefore, technique depends on certain conditions in the patient’s dental arch and general oral health. These conditions are assessed individually during a consultation here at the ImplArt Clinic.

What if it can’t be done?

If the technique is not possible, the dentist will look for another solution for the patient’s temporary prosthesis:

  • Adhesive prosthesis
  • Removable prostheses (mobile prosthesis)
  • Reinstatement of the old prosthesis (temporary refitting)
  • Fixed prosthesis on neighboring teeth
  • Devices to disguise the aesthetics of the area
  • Braces with a stuck tooth

Rapidly loaded dental implant: provisional prosthesis installed

The immediate loading dental implant technique can therefore be indicated for the following cases:

  • People with a completely missing lower arch,
  • Full arch with a few teeth,
  • Single or individual teeth in the anterior region of the mouth,
  • In some cases, dentures are fixed on some continuous teeth,

In all cases and situations, first and foremost the best course of action is to consult an implant dentist and carry out a full assessment to determine what and how will be done. Only this assessment can determine whether an immediately loaded dental implant is indicated or whether another rehabilitation procedure would bring a better result. In any case, implants are a great way to replace teeth, see before and after cases with dental implants.

Fixed dentures with individualized separate teeth

Fixed zirconia prostheses with individual teeth (one by one) is the technique that fixes the crowns on each tooth individually, i.e. the crowns are separate and not joined together. Discover our new model of fixed dental prosthesis with teeth separated one by one, made using computerized techniques. It’s our best dental prosthesis on a total implant, made with the best materials and techniques, check it out!

This type of prosthesis is made on dental implants and is an excellent option for those looking for a complete zirconia implant prosthesis on implants and seeking the most natural result possible. In this option, the patient can floss between the teeth, simulating the same situation as natural teeth.

ImplArt Digital Dentistry 2020 launch

dentures with individual teeth
Dentures with fixed crowns allow flossing. With other types of fixed prosthesis, it is not possible to use dental floss for cleaning, as the teeth are made together.

New fixed zirconia prosthesis with individual teeth brings great satisfaction due to its naturalness

The main indication for the one-to-one fixed prosthesis technique is to replace teeth that have been lost for an entire continuous stretch, or for all the teeth in the mouth.

However, fixed prostheses with individual teeth are not suitable for those who have lost only one tooth, or teeth in alternating positions.

The procedure to further individualize teeth with a fixed dental prosthesis consists of inserting dental implant pins into the bone. The zirconia crown is then fixed onto a framework, which in turn is attached to the dental implants.

However, the indication for a fixed prosthesis with individual teeth needs to be examined by the implant dentist. In this way, the indication for a dental implant must be made and the feasibility of making this modern type of prosthesis with individualized teeth verified.

The dental implant specialist must determine whether the case meets the requirements to receive individualized zirconia crowns or single dental porcelain crowns on a fixed prosthesis.

immediate loading
In fixed prosthetics with one tooth at a time, there is a reinforcing structure, and then each individualized zirconia crown of just one tooth is cemented onto this structure.

Can I make a more individualized fixed prosthesis in which the teeth look more natural?

In principle, the basic requirements for making fixed zirconia prostheses with individualized teeth are:

  • Possibility of dental implants: The bone should allow the necessary implant pins to be made. However, if the bone is not sufficient, bone grafting can be carried out in the area.
  • Small bone volume: Fixed prostheses with more separated teeth require a large volume of components. This is why in cases of severe bone loss or when the patient has lost their teeth a long time ago, it becomes easier.

The main advantages of a fixed prosthesis with one tooth at a time:

immediate loading
Fixed dentures with separated teeth offer an extremely natural and comfortable result.

Which materials can be used for prosthetic work on separated teeth?

For the structure: the main material used today for the structure of this type of fixed dental prosthesis is translucent dental zirconia. However, we can also use a very resistant metal as a reinforcing material (hybrid prosthesis), and there are now more technological resins (PEEK) that make it possible to make fixed prostheses.

For dental crowns: to make individual crowns (one by one), we can use any material that is used for this purpose, such as ordinary porcelain crowns. However, we prefer to use translucent dental zirconia, an extremely resistant and aesthetic material.

Other materials that can be used to make the teeth of the prosthesis are: pure porcelain (emax, common feldspathic porcelains), or even the old metal-ceramic crown (but the aesthetics are not so good).

During the provisional phase, the crowns are made of resin so that we can check the aesthetics and symmetry of the smile together with the patient and make the necessary corrections before finalizing the individualized and customized dental prosthesis.

Digital Dentistry – High technology applied to dentistry

Digital dentistry and the use of advanced technologies are already a reality in dentistry. The ImplArt Dental Clinic is always investing in technologies that make computer-planned treatments not only faster and more precise, but also more comfortable.

Digital Dentistry – Discover the advantages of using computers in dental treatments

3D tooth printer

3D printers are very versatile, because they are able to build objects of various shapes according to a three-dimensional digital design. Prostheses and dental restorations are also being made using this concept at Clinica Dentaria ImplArt.

We have the two main 3D tooth printers developed in the world: Cerec from the German company Sirona (including the most up-to-date version of the system, Cerec Primemill), and Ceramill Motion II from Austria’s AmannGirrbach. They have robotic arms that mill the chosen dental material (which can be porcelain, ceramic, zirconia, etc.) until it acquires the shape of the computer-designed restoration.

The result is a piece made very quickly, completely customized to the patient’s needs, with perfect color and fit. It is also possible to make an identical copy of the shape of a prosthesis that the patient is already used to, but which needs to be replaced because it has suffered a fracture or was made with unsightly material (metal or stained resin).

Digital smile project

We use modern digital dentistry software to design computerized dental treatments. With the help of these programs, we can design aesthetic dental restorations, crowns, dental contact lenses and even full dentures on implants.

We also design orthodontic treatment by simulating tooth movement and planning dental implant treatment. The aim of the digital smile project is to carry out a treatment that seeks to harmonize the functionality and aesthetics of the smile.

We create restorations and prostheses with customized shapes and colors for each patient.

Intraoral scanner

The intraoral scanner is a high-precision camera that captures intraoral images, i.e. of the teeth and gums. These images are transferred to a computer which creates a three-dimensional digital mold of the dental arches, the basis for planning the entire treatment.

With digital modeling, our team is able to design restorations and prostheses according to each patient’s needs, even mimicking the shades of neighboring teeth.

For the patient, this type of molding is much more comfortable and faster, unlike the old putty molds. Computer modeling also avoids errors in dental prostheses made with conventional putty molds.

Zirconia implant: made of Straumann Pure Ceramic porcelain – In Brazil

The Pure Ceramic zirconia implant from the Swiss company Straumann is a highly resistant and aesthetic option for replacing a natural tooth. The dental implant is made of metal-free ceramic material and has a white color, which is more similar to the roots of natural teeth. With this implant, it is possible to achieve an aesthetic and functional result that is far superior to metal implants. In addition, zirconia is a biocompatible and anti-allergic material, which minimizes the risk of rejection or complications. Therefore, the Pure Ceramic zirconia implant is a great choice for anyone looking for a beautiful, healthy smile.

YouTube video player

The dental zirconia implant combined with the use of a pure 3D zirconia crown is the complete combination for metal-free oral rehabilitation. This treatment is especially suitable for people seeking excellence in aesthetic results, both when choosing dental implants and prostheses. In addition, it can be used for those patients who want to avoid the use of metals due to an allergic condition.

This option is gaining more and more ground as many patients want to eliminate the use of metal in their arches, either out of preference or even medical restrictions. There are currently several types of implant, each with its own characteristics, making it easier to choose according to the patient’s wishes. Let’s find out more about this very modern white implant option, which has allowed one version of the implant to be made of titanium.

Using a zirconia implant is an option in cases of allergies or major aesthetic needs

In addition to their natural color, Straumann Pure Ceramic implants have a surface developed with ZLA technology, similar to SLA, which favors and accelerates the osseointegration process, important for the success and stabilization of the implant.

The implant has the color of a natural tooth, because it has no sparkling reflections, and is very useful in cases of thin or atrophied gums. This makes it possible to obtain a natural-looking and aesthetically pleasing end result, especially for application in the anterior region (the most visible part of the arch).

In these images of a surgery carried out in our clinic with a zirconium dental implant, the aesthetic nature of the material can be seen. After initial gum healing, bone healing begins, which takes an average of 2 months. After this time, the porcelain crown can be fitted over the implant.

The best types of dental crowns to complement these ceramic implants are the Pure Porcelain Crown, and the translucent zirconia crown, both made in our in-house dental laboratory.

The zirconia implant: Straumann Pure ceramic has been extensively tested and proven

The Straumann Pure ceramic implant was subjected to rigorous scientific research before being introduced to the market. Each implant is mechanically tested before being delivered to the dentist. This quality can only be guaranteed by a world leader in scientific research and the development of solutions for implant dentistry.

Straumann has been researching and developing dental implants, surgical instruments, prosthetic components and biomaterials for oral tissue regeneration since 1974. Straumann’s products and services are available in more than 70 countries.

implante de zirconia straumann pure neodent zi 2
Image of the types of zirconia implants currently available in Brazil. We have the Straumann Pure Ceramic zirconia implant and the Neodent Zi implant available.

What is the healing time for zirconia dental implants?

The recovery period for the Straumann Pure zirconia implant can vary, depending on several factors, including the patient’s oral health and the type of procedure performed.

After implant surgery, the gums around the implant site need time to recover. This usually takes two to four weeks, but can vary according to the patient’s individual response.

In addition, the process of osseointegration, which is when the bone fuses to the implant, is a crucial part of recovery. Specifically for the Straumann Zirconia implant, osseointegration can occur between 2 and 6 months, while in the case of the ZI implant (Neodent) it can take 3 to 6 months to fully integrate.

Remember, each case is unique and recovery time can vary. It is always important for us to examine the patient in order to offer personalized advice.

Conclusion

Implant dentist Dr. Roberto Markarian, director of the ImplArt dental clinic, is a member of the ITI – International Team for Implantology, an entity linked to Straumann that brings together the world’s best specialists for the development of new products and techniques.

We are among the clinics that use the most Zirconia Dental Implants in Brazil today, so we are used to carrying out such treatments.

Computer-guided implant surgery

Computer-guided implant surgery is certainly a technique that makes implant surgeries less invasive, precise and comfortable. Currently, the most modern materials are zirconia protocols and porcelain protocols on total implants.

Full arch implant with zirconia and porcelain prosthesis

This technique eliminates the need to make large cuts and sutures in the gums, making the post-operative period easier and the recovery faster.

The surgical guide acts as a template with indications of where the incisions should be made to place the dental implants. The surgical guide is custom-made according to the patient’s CT scan images, using a 3D printing method.

CT makes it possible to analyze the bone volume of all regions of the maxilla and mandible in order to select the best distribution of implants. In this way, it is also possible to choose the most suitable implants, taking length and diameter into account.

Another advantage of computer-guided implant surgery is that it helps to avoid surgical accidents, such as hitting delicate structures like nerve pathways.

GUIA CIRÚRGICO

The patient can leave the office with temporary teeth or with the mobile prosthesis they were already wearing over the implants until the definitive prosthesis is finished (in 3 to 6 months), or with an immediate load in up to 72 hours.

Immediate loading ranges from the guided implant surgery for placing the implants to the fixing of the fixed dental prosthesis, usually of the dental protocol type. The patient can quickly speak, smile and eat safely (the masticatory effort should progress little by little, according to the surgeon’s instructions).

Learn more about total implants

Indications for a computer-guided implant surgery:

  • Any completely edentulous patient, whether recent or having worndentures for years, who has good bone availability is likely to be a good candidate for this technique.
  • Diabetic and/or hypertensive patients who generally have no indication for surgery or when it should be performed with caution due to bleeding. Computer-guided total implant placement surgery is, in principle, an excellent option for this patient, as bleeding is less with this technique.

See also this moving testimonial from a patient who had her whole mouth implanted.

Contraindications to guided surgery:

– Very advanced bone atrophy makes it impossible, in principle, to place neodent dental implants. In some cases, this problem can be solved with another technique, bone grafting.

The entire procedure is carried out with great peace of mind and safety. Computer-guided implant surgery represents a major advance in dental surgery and our team at the ImplArt dental clinic, led by Dr. Roberto Markarian – a doctor in dental implants and a specialist in prosthetics – has full command of the techniques.

To find out if you could benefit from this technique, our team needs to carry out a thorough assessment of your case. Contact us and make an appointment at the ImplArt dental clinic to see other cases and photographs. We will be happy to try to solve your problem.

Immediate loading for a single dental implant

Single-tooth implants with immediate loading consist of placing one or a few dental implants and then attaching a fixed prosthesis. This technique is used to reduce the stages of the procedure and allow the smile to be restored more quickly with implants. The tooth is fixed directly to the implant during surgery or within a few days.

The single-tooth implant immediate loading technique makes your treatment faster

In a common procedure, a temporary acrylic tooth is placed in the correct position for a period of one to four months (healing period), depending on the type of implant chosen. Soon after this period, the implant and bone are closer together and the gums are more stable, making it possible to make the molds for the permanent porcelain tooth.

In the case of immediate loading for single implants, the technique is used to rehabilitate just one tooth. This type of intervention is used when the tooth is severely compromised by cavities, periodontal disease, fractures or simply the absence of a tooth (a tooth that hasn’tbeen born).

The extraction of a problem tooth is followed by the installation of the implant and the fixing of an immediate prosthesis by the implant dentist. Even with planning, in some cases there are uncertainties about the use of immediate loading. Some factors cannot be predicted, such as the stability of the implant (insertion torque) and the quality of the bone.

single tooth implant

The technique is particularly suitable for the front teeth, especially the incisors, which require less chewing force. The bottom teeth are not suitable for immediate loading because chewing exerts too much force. Therefore, immediate loading in this area reduces the chances of successful treatment.

To carry out the single implant immediate loading procedure, the patient must be in good health with good oral conditions to facilitate the primary stability of the implant. In addition, favorable bone structure is essential for immediate loading.

Uncontrolled systemic diseases and smoking are factors that should be assessed by the dentist, as smoking reduces the chances of osseointegration.

Digital radiology center at the ImplArt Clinic

For your convenience, the ImplArt Dental Clinic has a digital radiology center for carrying out radiological examinations, which are essential for diagnosis and planning/monitoring various dental treatments. Diagnostic examinations certainly play a key role in the planning of an excellent dental treatment by an implant dentist. They are indispensable for planning bone grafting, periodontal grafting, dental implants, total impl ants and protocol prostheses.

In this sense, digital radiology at the ImplArt Clinic is linked to the One Stop Solution concept, where patients can carry out everything from diagnostic examinations to complete dental treatment within the complete structure of the Dental Clinic.

Digital radiographs and examinations at the ImplArt clinic help with rapid diagnosis and treatment planning

The ImplArt Clinic’s digital radiology center facilitates diagnosis and speeds up the start of treatment, since patients don’t have to travel to another address to have their tests carried out.

The ImplArt radiology center is equipped with a state-of-the-art digital x-ray machine (manufactured by Dabi Atlante), which enables digital panoramic x-rays and computed tomography, both with real-time image results.

With these high-precision tests, the diagnosis is made quickly and reliably. They also support treatment planning, avoiding wasted time, unnecessary procedures and possible surgical accidents.

Digital radiography is a way of capturing images by emitting x-rays, but with digital sensors rather than traditional film.

Advantages of Digital Radiology

There are many advantages to using digital radiography:

  • Patient exposure to radiation is much lower in digital radiology compared to traditional film.
  • The patient doesn’t have to repeat the examination until the image is good.
  • Diagnoses are faster and more accurate, as the image captured in digital radiology has excellent resolution and the dentist can view it directly on the computer screen (no need to wait for it to be developed).
  • It allows small details such as tooth or root fractures to be analyzed. The dentist can enlarge the image when necessary.
  • It allows interaction between dentist and patient, since with the digital image on the computer screen, it is possible to better discuss the diagnosis and treatment planning.
  • It can be filed in the patient’s chart and opened by any member of the dental team involved in planning and treatment.
  • The test is sustainable, as there is no need to print film or use toxic chemicals to develop it.

immediate loading

Computerized Tomography (CT-scan)

Thishigh-precision radiological examination, available at the ImplArt Clinic’s Digital Radiology Center, is designed to visualize bone structures. In dentistry, it is very useful because the three-dimensional image makes it possible to analyze teeth, bones, joints, occlusion, soft tissues, nerve pathways, etc. Here are some of the main uses of CT in dentistry.

  • Diagnosing periodontal diseases, even at an early stage.
  • Measuring bone volume for planning dental implant surgery. Knowing the exact measurements of the bone tissue is an extremely important factor when planning dental implant surgery, because in this way it is possible to choose implants with dimensions suited to the needs of each patient and also to respect the limits of the tissues in order to avoid affecting sensitive structures such as nerves.
  • CT assists in what we call computer-guided surgery, a technique that makes surgery precise and less invasive, and therefore with the expectation of a quicker and smoother recovery.
  • Monitoring the implant healing process (osseointegration).
  • Identify possible problems with the implant, especially peri-implantitis (infection around the implant that can lead to mobility or falling out).
  • Identify fractures or defects in the maxilla or mandible that affect the health and stability of teeth or implants.

Contact lenses for teeth

Dental contact lenses in São Paulo to improve the aesthetics of your smile

Contact lenses for teeth are ultra-thin porcelain veneers (0.3 to 0.7 mm) used to correct certain aesthetic problems in the teeth. They work like “covers” or ceramic fragments, which are bonded to one or more teeth to better cover stains, small fractures and other defects, as well as to change the shape and size of teeth. Dental contact lens treatment is often used to beautify the smiles of famous people.

At the ImplArt Clinic, dental contact lenses are completely designed on computer and then better executed in dental porcelain by milling machines (3D printers) in our digital laboratory. This method is far superior to the traditional manual method of working with dental porcelain. Dental porcelain is a vitreous ceramic material (lithium disilicate) that is very resistant and mainly imitates the texture and shades of natural teeth.

It is therefore an aesthetic material, safe and totally biocompatible with the human body. The computerized design is based on images obtained by an intraoral scanner – a high-precision camera available at ImplArt Odontologia.

Do contact lenses work?

In this way, dental contact lenses have a shape, color and texture comparable to natural teeth, even imitating the characteristics of neighboring teeth. Because they are ultra-thin, their installation requires little or no wear on the natural teeth. Indications for dental contact lenses:

  • Covering teeth stains
  • Change in the shape of the teeth
  • Change in tooth color
  • Enlargement of small teeth
  • Aligning crowdedteeth
  • Covering small fractures
  • Uniformization of uneven and asymmetrical teeth

Advantages of dental lenses

  • High resistance and long durability of the dental contact lens
  • Very aesthetic look, comparable to natural teeth
  • Minimally invasive restorations
  • Completely painless procedure
  • They don’t require much tooth grinding to be installed
  • Preserves the structure of the teeth
  • No discomfort in chewing function
  • Porcelain doesn’t change color over the years
  • Incredibly natural and harmonious result
  • It can be designed and executed in a short time, in some cases even in a Day Clinic.

At ImplArt Odontologia, a specialized clinic, we make dental contact lenses with work that is precise and personalized for each patient. This is only possible because we have a prosthetic laboratory on our premises, and the best CAD/CAM-based technologies, from the computerized design of the treatment to the execution of the dental contact lenses.

In most cases it can be done quickly by Dayclinic. Ask about fast dental lenses at Dayclinic. If you have any questions about the price of lenses, forms of payment, planning, and a better approximate value or treatment time, then please contact us.
