For Our Mother and Father

With Respect

Implants for Those Aged 65 and Over

Time waits for no one, no matter how cruelly it may seem

To the parents who carried me on their backs and raised me from childhood,

So that it is not too late when you look back and want to repay their love,

How about deciding on the best filial gift of 2024?

An implant is for those aged 65 and over

It is an innovative dental procedure that can perfectly replace

our father’s and mother’s lost teeth.

The Relationship Between Aging and Replacement Teeth

The reason implants for those aged 65 and over are needed is

that natural tooth wear and loss due to aging

are natural phenomena.

As we get older,

Tooth enamel wears down,

and periodontal tissues are also lost and recede,

which can cause teeth to become loose and fall out.

Replacement teeth for such lost teeth

help restore appetite and chewing function,

which are the most important elements for satisfying

basic human survival needs.

Bone Graft for Replacement Teeth

One of the symptoms of aging,

loss and recession of periodontal tissues,

includes the gums and jawbone,

which are the tissues that surround and support the teeth.

Because they are the tissues that surround and support them,

if they are lost and recede due to aging,

replacement teeth procedures may also become difficult.

In such cases, through alveolar bone grafting,

regeneration and recovery of the gums and jawbone are attempted,

and the replacement tooth procedure is carried out.

Alveolar bone grafting requires skilled treatment

based on accurate diagnosis and stable predictability

according to the anatomical classification of the jaw.

Types of Replacement Teeth

The main types of replacement teeth are

Bridge

Denture

Implant

These three types.

Bridge

A bridge is a method of filling a lost tooth

between teeth,

and requires adjacent teeth on both sides,

with those adjacent teeth being reduced.

A prosthesis is placed over the reduced adjacent teeth

to fill the missing area with an artificial tooth.

Denture

Dentures are attached directly to the gums

to fill multiple missing teeth.

They are removable and inexpensive,

but have the side effect of gum recession.

Implant

An implant is a method of filling the space by

fixing a prosthesis modeled after the structure of a tooth

directly into the jawbone.

It is convenient as a fixed option,

but has the disadvantage of being expensive.

Combined Use of Replacement Teeth

It is possible to combine bridges, dentures, and implants

to maximize each of their advantages and compensate for their disadvantages.

Full-Arch Implant

This is a method that combines implants and bridges,

where implants are placed in the positions that are absolutely necessary,

and the empty spaces that are not are completed with bridges.

Denture Implant

This is a method that combines implants and dentures,

where implants are placed in the positions that are absolutely necessary,

and dentures are connected on top of them to complete the treatment.

Diabetes, High Blood Pressure, Osteoporosis

Factors that can interfere with implants for those aged 65 and over include

diabetes, high blood pressure, and osteoporosis.

If these conditions develop due to aging,

the body becomes more vulnerable to bacterial infection and recovery slows down,

which can cause implant surgery to fail.

In such cases, PRF is used

to maximize the regeneration of the gums and jawbone

and increase the success rate of implant surgery.

This is a growth factor concentrated through a dental centrifuge

after collecting the patient's own blood,

extracting white blood cells and platelets,

which helps improve immunity and healing ability and supports osseointegration.
