Implant Foreign Body Sensation: Could a Tiny Difference Be the Cause? Finding the Right Prosthetic and Solving the Feeling of Something in Your Mouth at Haru Plant

Hello.

This is Haru Plant Dental Clinic, where a comfortable daily life begins with Haru.

Many people lose teeth and go through significant discomfort, then return to a comfortable daily life through implant treatment.

On the other hand, some patients say that even after recovery is complete, they still feel a foreign body sensation from the implant,

or that the treated area feels awkward and uncomfortable.

However, this feeling is actually very natural and quite understandable.

Implants are precisely made and placed, but in the end they are artificial teeth, so

it is difficult to perfectly reproduce the exact feeling of the natural teeth you once had.

In particular, because there is no nerve, sensory differences occur, and areas with sensitive sensation such as the tip of the tongue or the inner cheek mucosa can make even a very slight sense of incongruity feel pronounced.

In addition, if you have been without teeth for a long time, it is only natural to feel unfamiliar.

Most patients usually adapt to this feeling after about 1 to 2 weeks.

Even so, if you still feel implant foreign body sensation, you should have your condition checked at the dental clinic.

Beyond an adaptation issue, there may rarely be a possibility that peri-implantitis or inflammation is progressing.

Even if there are no clear signs of pain or abnormalities in the early stages, leaving it untreated can cause damage to the surrounding tissue or affect implant stability, so prompt checking is important.

Meanwhile, even if you have been diagnosed with no major medical problem, if the implant foreign body sensation still does not go away, you should now check whether the position or shape of the prosthetic matches you.

In many cases, this comes from the subtle interaction between the oral structure and the prosthetic.

Because the mouth is a sensitive area, even a 1 mm difference can be felt as something unfamiliar.

If it is an area exposed to the outside, such as the front teeth, it can even lead to an aesthetic imbalance.

Therefore, even if there appears to be no problem on the surface, implant foreign body sensation should not be taken lightly.

The Dental Laboratory Center at Haru Plant for Accurate Prosthetic Fabrication

Usually, dental clinics commonly take impressions of the teeth using materials such as plaster or gel.

Since patients have to bite into the material, it can strain the jaw, and the bite alignment is also more likely to be off.

At Haru Plant Dental Clinic, to minimize implant foreign body sensation and discomfort,

every part of the treatment process is managed and operated with greater precision and a more systematic approach.

One of the most essential elements among these is accurate prosthetic fabrication.

For this, we use advanced digital imaging technology instead of traditional methods.

In contrast, Haru Plant Dental Clinic precisely scans the patient’s dentition and oral cavity with a high-resolution intraoral scanner. There is no need for the patient to keep their mouth open wide for a long time, and precise data can be obtained more quickly and comfortably. Thanks to this approach,

the accuracy of the prosthetic is very high, and errors that could cause discomfort are significantly reduced.

Another major strength of Haru Plant Dental Clinic is that it operates its own dental laboratory center.

In general, after taking an impression at the clinic, the prosthetic is sent to an outside lab for fabrication,

which takes a long time, and if the prosthetic does not fit well, a request for modification must be sent again.

On the other hand, at Haru Plant Dental Clinic, all fabrication and adjustments are done immediately through the in-house dental laboratory center, so if the prosthetic feels strange when worn, adjustments can be made on the spot.

Moreover, even if it is difficult for the patient to accurately describe the implant foreign body sensation themselves, it is not a problem.

At Haru Plant Dental Clinic, the oral cavity is scanned in 3D, and by checking through data which area has minute interference,

even feelings that are difficult to explain in words can be objectively diagnosed and resolved.

In addition, even after treatment, the implant condition is regularly checked through periodic examinations,

so if discomfort arises after long-term use, a quick response is possible.

Because all data are stored in the in-house dental laboratory center, retouching can be done right away.

Today, we took a detailed look at the causes of implant foreign body sensation.

Haru Plant Dental Clinic’s treatment philosophy is not simply to end with implant placement, but to carefully care for patients so that their daily life after surgery can continue comfortably.

Precise diagnosis, fast fabrication and adjustment, and continuous aftercare.
