Dental implantation

The most demanded method of prosthesis and dental restoration is implantation, which deserved its popularity thanks to its quality and durability results. The most frequently asked questions about dental implantation will be answered by M. A. Slytskiy, surgeon dentist of Master Level:

— What are the advantages of the implantation over other methods of dental prosthesis?
— The main advantages of up-to-date implantation methods over traditional ones, serving to the purpose of tooth restoration, can be divided into five basic groups:

Any not functioning organ will atrophy by the time and lose its functional properties. This happens with the bone tissue of maxilla after tooth extraction. It becomes thin in height and depth, forming uncomfortable conditions for adjacent healthy teeth. The implant helps to avoid such unpleasant situation.

— What is the core of implantation method?
— The technique of dental implants is quite simple: in the area on absence of one or more teeth the implant titanium screw is placed. A ceramic crown is installed over it.

— Does this procedure make any pain?
— The placing of titanium implant is less painful, than regular tooth extraction. This applies both to procedure itself and to recovery period. Patient returns to his daily life next day after surgery.

— Can your dentistry guarantee the successful survival of the implant?
— Implant surgeries in our dentistry are being performed for about twenty years, we have achieved consistently good results for this time. Implant placement surgeries are performed every day in our dentistry, we have all necessary equipment for that. We use high-frequency ultrasonic scalpels and laser tools, centrifuges, allowing us to make platelet concentrates and accelerate tissue regeneration. All surgeries are worked out with the help of three-dimensional digital tomograph, which helps us to calculate thickness of tissues. Using this machine we can control quality of implant placement at all stages, starting from preparative one. In another words, the dentistry is equipped with up-to-date equipment of European manufactures in order to avoid adverse events after surgery. This allows us to provide a guarantee for implant placing. The implantation surgery is performed by M. A. Slytskiy, surgeon dentist of Master Level.

— Have your doctors an appropriate training for such surgeries?
— All dentists-implantologists of our dentistry are recognized as the best in their field among the specialists of Volgograd. Dental technicians, orthopedists, surgeons and their assistants were trained in Moscow in representational office of world implantation leader "Astra Tech" Group. We regularly receive invitations to congresses of dentists from Sweden, Israel, Greece and other European countries for experience exchange.

— Are there any restrictions for placing of dental implants?
— Dental Health Center "Lazur" is medical institution of European level. We use only medicines, materials for implantation of European manufacture. The implantation procedure is performed using up-to-date high-tech equipment of foreign origin. All these points along with experience of our specialists allows us to perform the implantation without age restrictions. "Lazur" accumulated a huge experience of implant placement for patients with diseases such as hepatitis, pancreatic diabetes and other diseases, that a few years ago were restricted for dental implantation procedure.

— You say, that 4 implant systems can be chosen by a patient in your dentistry. Please, advise about the choiсe?
— Our specialists work with implant systems from the USA, Sweden, South Korea and Brazil. Each of them showed its good side, but the system from Swedish Group "Astra Tech" deserves the greatest attention. It is applied practically in all countries of the world; in case of long business trip to any country, a patient can get high-quality dental service, if neсessary. The quality of Swedish implants is so high, that "Astra Tech" provides a lifetime warranty on them.
