Tooth issues faced today are quite a handful. However, there is nothing more aesthetically crippling than missing tooth. Maxillofacial dental implants are the latest in demand solution for this issue and has become quite popular for its natural functioning as well as appearance.

Maxillofacial dental implants can simply be defined as artificial tooth roots that is used as a replacement for natural roots damaged due to decay, periodontal disease or trauma. The implants are made of inert metal like titanium, shaped as screws or poles and fused with the jaw bones, to hold artificial teeth or crown.

Dental implants can either be mandible dental implant or maxillary dental implant based on the requirement of the patient. The implants provide a solid foundation to place the artificial teeth or crown. Maxillofacial dental implants are surgically fused with the jaw bones to ensure maximum support.

Maxillofacial Dental Implant Procedure

The procedure for placement of dental implants are initiated after a detailed analysis of the patients bone structure and quality, at the area of missing tooth. The procedure is done after the administration of local anaesthesia. The Osseo Integration concept forms the basis of dental implant procedure here.

The implant is fused with the jawbone and left to heal for a few days, before the crown is placed on top of it. The inert metal build of titanium ensures that the implant do not react with the adjoining tissue or bones causing infections. The support and sturdy base strength imparts a natural look as well as functionality.
