Implant Procedures: The Experience of the Medical Team Matters!

Hello! Today, I’d like to talk once again about implant procedures. You may have heard the saying, “It’s not the tooth but the gum,” but in fact, it means that both teeth and gums are important. If you do not manage your dental health properly, you may lose your teeth, and the jawbone supporting the gums can also weaken, causing significant inconvenience in daily life.

The Importance of Implant Procedures

Implants are one of the good ways to restore the health of teeth and gums. Depending on the condition of the teeth, the procedure can be carried out in various ways, and it is important to find a dental clinic that can perform implant surgery suited to your condition.

Various Implant Procedure Methods

• Full-arch implants: This is a method that can be applied when all natural teeth have been lost. After placing 8 to 10 implants in the upper and lower jaws respectively, a bridge-type prosthesis is attached to restore the entire set of teeth.

• Sinus lift implants: When there is insufficient bone in the upper molar area, the sinus is lifted upward to secure space, then bone is added before placing the implants.

• Navigation implants: This is an advanced digital surgical method that analyzes the oral condition in advance through 3D CT scans and predicts the outcome. It is popular these days because it hurts less and recovery is faster.

• Same-day implants: This is a method that allows implants to be placed on the day of the visit for busy people.

• Bone graft implant: When there is not enough jawbone, the patient’s own bone or artificial bone is grafted to form strong jawbone before the implant is placed.

Implants and National Health Insurance

Currently, patients aged 65 or older can receive National Health Insurance benefits and only need to pay a portion of the treatment cost for up to two implants in their lifetime, regardless of the site.

Choosing a Trustworthy Dental Clinic

It is important that various types of implant procedures are carried out quickly and carefully. It is best to receive treatment from medical staff with extensive clinical experience. You should also check whether advanced equipment is available and whether one medical professional is responsible for the entire treatment process from start to finish.
