WHAT IS THE BEST METHOD FOR CORRECTING ISSUES WITH FAILING DENTAL IMPLANTS?

Let’s begin with understanding why dental implant fail, starting with the types of failure that generally occur. There are two classes of dental implant failure that are based on the length of time after your procedure.

DENTAL IMPLANT FAILURE

In most cases of early dental implant failure that occur in the first few months, this means after the abutment is placed into your jaw, these some of the causes and options of treatment:

1. Impaired Healing

The bone surrounding the abutment has not adhered rigidly into the jawbone and the dental implants become loose are usually very easy to remove also called Lack of Osseointegration Integration.

What is Osseointegration?

Osseointegration refers to the direct attachment of bone to a metal implant (titanium) and exit the gum. These dental implants are used for permanent anchorage of artificial limbs.

2. Poor Healing Ability of the patient, sometimes because of diabetes, smoking.

3. Lack of Stability when abutment was placed, poor placement (not firm enough in the bone) also called Occlusal Overloading.

4. Micro Motion (too much movement of the implant during the healing process). In most cases, an artificial tooth isn’t attached to an implant until after the jaw bone properly heals to the abutment, but if the crown is attached, it can also put extra stress on the implant and lead to failure. Also called Implant Micro-Movements,

5. Infection at Your Dental Implant Area

If you have pain, see gum discoloration or excessive bleeding, this can indicate a gum infection that has developed during or after surgery. This infection can be the result of from smoking, a failed oral hygiene routine, diabetes, a compromised immune system, bite misalignment, parafunctional habits (bruxism), or an allergic reaction to the implant itself. An infection around a dental implant is a form of gum disease known as in its early stages as Peri- Mucositis Disease, and later stages Peri-Implantitis Disease.

Later Implant Failure

Later Dental Implant Failure often occurs after a year of placement and has been in function. In some cases, the dental implant was firm and then becomes loose. Possibly due to infection or too much force on the tooth and abutment. This can occur with premature overloading of implants where it’s rejected. This type of late dental implant failure is easy to remove and the process is much like the early failure treatment.

In other later dental implant failure, the dental implant is rigid and this can be confirmed by the X-rays taken at your exam, they may show a pattern of implant disease called “perio-implantitis”, where bacteria has developed and is destroying the bone surrounding the neck of the implant.

Perio-Implantitis Disease is a growing concern because it represents an active infection with a dental implant. This infection symptoms sometimes include pain, plus, abscess and bad odor. Unfortunately in many cases, the implant will need to be removed to prevent spreading pain, infection and further bone loss.

Treatments:

 Laser Correction For Saving Dental Implants 

  • COVERED BY MOST DENTAL INSURANCE. 
  • Dental implants are an excellent choice for replacing missing teeth, as are laser periodontists a smart choice for replacing your dental implants.
  • Good bone remodeling, favorable bone quality for dental implant re-placement and tissue surface treatment for achieving successful osseointegration can be treated in most cases successfully with application of low-level laser therapy.

Bone Grafting

If Dr. Winson determines that your tooth implant needs to be replaced, under local anesthesia is easily removed with local anesthesia. Next after gently cleaning the gum tissue, if the bone is intact around the area of the removed dental implant, no bone graft should be be necessary.

With bone loss, Dr. Winson will use bone grafting to improve the area for replacing your tooth implant. Healing from a bone graft can take several months before a new abutment and crown can be replaced. During this healing process, Dr. Winson will discuss ways to reduce the risk factors that caused the implant to fail with you.
