Straumann implants advantages

In collaboration with leading clinics, research institutes and universities around the world, Straumann has been researching and developing high-techdental implants, surgical instruments, prosthetic components and biomaterials for oral tissue regeneration since 1974.

Straumann’s products and services are available in more than 70 countries. This standard of excellence certainly allows dentists to offer their patients less traumatic, less invasive treatments with predictable long-term results, both aesthetic and functional.

Straumann implants are manufactured with three basic requirements in mind: reliability (scientific research), simplicity (ease of use) and versatility (diverse applications).

The brand has an extensive range of implants with different sizes, diameters, angles, material composition and surface technologies, which considerably increases the possibilities for rehabilitation in various situations.

Straumann Implants Technologies

Regarding the level of implant positioning compared to the bone and gingiva:

Straumann Soft Tissue Level Implants – higher tooth connection implants, at gingival level.

Straumann Bone Level Implants – bone level implants with internal connection, with the aim of preserving bone and gum tissue, as well as favoring aesthetic results.

Regarding the material that makes up the implant and its healing time

PURE Ceramic impl ants – pure white ceramic, zirconia implants that are mainly indicated for the anterior region of the arch. This provides a better aesthetic result for the treatment (estimated healing time = 2 months)*.

SLActive implants – implants with surface technology that not only favors but also accelerates the osseointegration process (estimated healing time = 21 days – 1 month)*

Roxolid SLA implants– implants made with titanium and zirconia reinforcement. They are small in size and highly resistant, making them ideal for patients with little bone volume (estimated healing time = 2 months)*.

* According to the manufacturer. Compliance with the deadline will depend on other factors such as the quality of the bone, the presence or absence of a bone graft, associated tooth extraction, infections at the site and insertion torque.

implante de zirconia Pure Ceramic Straumann — *Straumann Pure ceramic: White ceramic implants, suitable for highly esthetic situations.*

Regarding the type of connection between the implant and the dental prosthesis – type of platform

Cone Morse connection – a locking system that favors better stability of the tooth and thus prevents it from loosening in the future. In addition, the cone-morse connection promotes a better seal in the implant-tooth connection, reducing infiltration and the number of bacteria around the implant. This effect is known as Platform Switch in scientific literature.

Straumann short implants

Straumann Standard Plus Short (SPS) implants are the shortest implants available on the market (they are only 4mm long) and are especially suitable for patients who, for whatever reason, find themselves with limited bone availability.

The lack of sufficient bone height in the mandible contraindicates the use of normal-length implants, unless this height is first reconstructed with bone grafting. The most common cases that compromise bone availability are:

Severe mandibular bone resorption – very common in people who have been edentulous for many years;
Poor bone quality; History of periodontal disease;
Patients with other medical conditions, such as diabetes, osteoporosis, etc.
Poor bone quality;
History of periodontal disease;
Patients with other medical conditions, such as diabetes, osteoporosis, etc.
Severe mandibular bone resorption – very common in people who have been edentulous for many years;
Poor bone quality;
History of periodontal disease;
Patients with other medical conditions, such as diabetes, osteoporosis, etc.

Short implants for difficult rehabilitation cases

These implants give the dentist more confidence to recommend them to patients who were not previously candidates to receive them. They also improve the predictability of treatment and the chances of acceptance.

Because these implants are very versatile for use in patients with compromised bone availability, the indication of bone grafting for vertical reconstruction can be dispensed with in many cases, offering greater peace of mind and speed of treatment. Standard Plus Short implants are indicated for:

Fixed partial dentures/units with splint (one implant per unit);
Cases of pontics in combination with a longer implant;
Totally edentulous cases with at least two SPS implants in combination with two longer implants in the anterior region.

Straumann Standard Plus Short (SPS) implants are made from a titanium-zirconium alloy called Roxolid, which is proven to be stronger and better than pure titanium.

They also have a surface with SLActive technology which facilitates the start and acceleration of the osseointegration process. The indication of this or other dental implant models is subject to professional analysis of each case.

Straumann implants price

It’s common to be asked about the price of Straumann dentalimplants online. However, the price varies according to the clinical indication, the need for grafting or not, the number of implants used and the professional.

That’s why the price of a Straumann dental implant can only be estimated once the patient has been assessed in person. We are talking about the best brand of dental implants, accepted by patients who want the best for their dental treatment.

Tooth replacement in just 1 month with Straumann implants and CAD/CAM crown

In selected cases, it is possible to install a dental implant with a CAD/CAM-designed crown within 1 month. This is possible because the ImplArt Clinic works with Straumann Slactive implants.

These implants have surface technology that favors and accelerates healing and the biological interaction between implants and bone (osseointegration). It’s worth remembering that dental implant surgery doesn’t hurt at all, and that implants can be placed at the same time as the bad tooth is extracted.

Successful osseointegration is certainly what guarantees the stability of the implant to support the prosthesis and the masticatory load over the years. With normal implants, osseointegration usually takes place between 6 and 8 months, while with Straumann Slactive implants the healing time can be reduced to 3 to 4 weeks (21 days).

Temporary prosthesis for healing and aesthetics

During this healing period, the patient wears a temporary prosthesis so that they don’t lose their tooth. In the meantime, our prosthetics laboratory carries out the digital CAD/CAM design and makes the definitive prosthesis using 3D printers.

The project starts with a digital mold that is taken using an intraoral scanner, an intraoral camera that captures precise images inside the patient’s mouth. This way, with these three-dimensional images, it is possible to design a prosthesis with the best fit and perfect shape for each need.

The prosthesis is made using a 3D printer. It can be made of porcelain, a very resistant, aesthetic material comparable to natural human teeth, and with a metal or zirconia internal structure.

It is worth noting that the possibility of installing a dental implant and definitiveprosthesis in just one month is only possible in selected cases. An assessment by our specialized team will determine this possibility taking into account certain characteristics, such as the volume of bone available and the patient’s general state of health.

Fixed dental prosthesis for Straumann implants

The rapid installation of a dental implant with a permanent crown restores chewing ability, the aesthetics of your smile and the confidence to speak and smile. The decision on which implant is best for you will be made between you and your ImplArt dentist.

The advantages and disadvantages of each system will be presented so that the choice can be made carefully. ImplArt Odontologia relies on all this technology to promote the treatment of its patients.

Bruxism and Dental Clenching: Understanding the Causes, Symptoms and Treatments According to Dr. Roberto Markarian

Bruxism and Dental Clenching, popularly known as the habit of grinding and dental clenching are dysfunctions that affects around 40% of the Brazilian population, according to data from the World Health Organization (WHO). At the ImplArt Clinic, located in São Paulo, this disorder is one of the most frequent complaints from patients seeking treatment for orofacial pain, tooth wear and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) problems.

Dr. Roberto Markarian, director of the ImplArt Clinic, stresses that it is important to emphasize that the treatment of bruxism and clenching must be individualized, taking into account the specific needs of each patient. A consultation with a dental surgeon is essential for a proper diagnosis and definition of the best therapeutic approach. Even patients with dentures and dental implants who suffer from bruxism should seek treatment.

What is bruxism and how does it manifest itself?

Bruxism can occur both during sleep(nocturnal bruxism) and while awake(daytime bruxism). In both cases, the patient performs the unconscious act of grinding or clenching their teeth with excessive force, causing consequences such as pain in the jaw, temples, etc.

According to Dr. Roberto Markarian, specialist in implant dentistry and clinical director of ImplArt,

“Bruxism is often silent and is only noticed when the symptoms become more intense. These include jaw pain, headaches, tooth wear and fractures in restorations or dentures and even dental implants.”

Main causes of Bruxism and Dental Clenching

Bruxism and dental clenching are associated with multiple factors, including:

Emotional stress and anxiety
Changes in sleep (such as apnea)
Dental malocclusion
Use of medication such as antidepressants
Neurological or muscular problems

Dental clenching, on the other hand, is a form of bruxism in which the patient keeps their teeth pressed together without lateral movements, and is equally harmful.

BRUXISM AND dental CLENCHING — *Pain caused by bruxism and dental clenching*

Most common symptoms

Tooth wear or fracture
Pain or tiredness in the chewing muscles
TMJ clicking
Headaches, especially on waking
Tooth sensitivity
Insomnia or non-restorative sleep

Personalized diagnosis at the ImplArt Clinic for Bruxism and Dental Clenching

The ImplArt Clinic carries out the diagnosis by means of a detailed clinical assessment, imaging tests (such as CT scans and intraoral scans) and functional analysis of the bite. Dr. Markarian highlights:

“In many cases, bruxism is discovered during planning for dental implants, dental contact lenses or oral rehabilitation, as signs of wear are visible on the tooth surfaces. That’s why a multidisciplinary approach is essential.”

Effective treatments for bruxism and clenching

The treatment of bruxism is very specific and often multidisciplinary, as it is usually linked to the patient’s mental state, in the vast majority of cases. Given that modern lifestyles are accompanied by a great deal of stress, it is important to find out the reasons that trigger the symptoms and try to treat them.

Major-relaxing bite plates or occlusal plates

Miorelaxing bite plates are removable intraoral devices, usually made of acrylic resin, which cover the surfaces of the teeth. Their purpose is to protect the teeth from damage caused by clenching or grinding and to reduce the associated muscle sensitivity. The use of these plates can reduce the activity of the masticatory muscles, helping to relieve the symptoms of bruxism. At the ImplArt Clinic, myorelaxing bite plates are made and designed using modern computer graphics systems to study the patient’s ideal bite.

Major-relaxing bite plates: Custom-made devices used during sleep, usually made of acrylic resin, which cover the surfaces of the teeth.
They reduce tooth wear and relieve muscle tension.

💉 Botulinum toxin (Botox)

The application of botulinum toxin type A to the masticatory muscles, such as the masseter, has been used to reduce the excessive muscle activity associated with bruxism. This approach can relieve pain and muscle discomfort, improving symptoms.

Applied to the masticatory muscles to reduce the force of clenching.
Effective results for up to 6 months.

💊 Medicines

In some cases, medication may be indicated to control bruxism. Muscle relaxants can be prescribed to reduce muscle activity during sleep. In addition, in specific situations, anxiolytics or antidepressants can be used, always under medical supervision.

Muscle relaxants or anxiolytics (when indicated by health professionals).
Relief of symptoms related to pain and tension.

🧘 Complementary therapies

Bruxism is often associated with stress and anxiety. Cognitive-behavioral therapies, relaxation techniques, meditation and other psychological approaches can be effective in reducing bruxism episodes, especially when emotional factors are involved.

Psychotherapy, relaxation techniques, mindfulness and physiotherapy.
Treatment of the emotional or postural cause of bruxism.

Occlusal rehabilitation

In cases where there is occlusal interference or bite problems, occlusal adjustment may be indicated. This procedure aims to correct inadequate dental contacts that may contribute to bruxism. In addition, dental rehabilitation, including restorations and prostheses, may be necessary to restore proper bite function.

Adjustments to the bite or replacement of missing teeth with prostheses or implants.
In advanced cases, occlusion correction is essential.

Is it possible to eliminate bruxism and dental clenching?

According to Dr. Roberto Markarian, it is important to emphasize that in order to mitigate the effects of bruxism, multidisciplinary treatment should be adopted, with a view to the patient’s well-being in a holistic way, i.e. treating the individual as a whole and not just from a dental point of view.

If we think only of a bruxism plate, what is expected is an immediate reduction in the symptoms of bruxism, but the plate itself will not cure bruxism and teeth clenching. The bite plate helps to redistribute the pressure on all the teeth, protecting the teeth from the force of the bite and easing the patient’s pain.

With this in mind, the ImplArt Clinic offers patients who need Porcelain Crowns and Protocol Prostheses, and who suffer from bruxism, the option of using Zirconia Prostheses. Zirconia is a highly resistant and biocompatible material that is very suitable for those who suffer from bruxism precisely because of its high resistance.

When Bruxism and Dental Clenching are not treated

Untreated bruxism can lead to:

Loss of tooth structure
Need for rehabilitation with dental implants or fixed prostheses
Chronic pain in the temporomandibular joint
Aesthetic impairment of the smile

Dr. Markarian adds:

“We have seen several patients who, after years of untreated bruxism, suffer from constant headaches and tooth wear. In addition, intensive clenching can lead to tooth fractures and even dental prostheses such as implant protocols.”

Schedule your evaluation at the ImplArt Clinic

If you feel pain in the jaw joint, or even notice that your teeth are wearing down, schedule an evaluation with Dr. Roberto Markarian, director of the ImplArt Clinic. Early diagnosis and proper treatment can prevent serious consequences for your oral health.

The Dangers of the Resin Veneer Trend in Young People

The popularity of resin veneers has increased significantly among young people in recent years. This trend, which has become a real trend, arouses curiosity and the desire to improve the appearance of the teeth. However, it is essential to be aware of the dangers involved in this procedure.

Resin veneers are thin sheets of aesthetic material placed on the surface of teeth to correct imperfections such as stains, misalignment and irregularities. Although they can provide an aesthetically pleasing appearance, you need to understand the risks to your oral health and consider carefully before going down this route.

In this series of articles, we’ll explore the dangers of resin veneers in young people and help you make an informed decision about this procedure. We’ll talk about the possible risks involved, the impacts on long-term oral health and the alternatives available. In addition, we will highlight the importance of a consultation with a qualified professional and post-procedure care so that you are prepared and aware before following this trend. We will also show you other treatment options such as tooth whitening and Porcelain Contact Lenses, which are considered a more durable and aesthetically superior treatment option. They can also be combined with other treatments such as dental implants.

Check out the following articles for complete and relevant information on resin veneers in young people, ensuring that you are well informed before making any decisions.

What is a resin veneer?

Resin veneers are a dental procedure that consists of applying thin layers of composite resin to the teeth to improve their aesthetic appearance. These veneers are a popular option for correcting dental imperfections such as stains, chips or misalignment.

To place the resin veneers on the teeth, the dentist removes a small amount of tooth enamel to ensure that the veneers fit correctly. The resin is then carefully applied to the teeth and molded to obtain the desired shape. Finally, the resin is polished to provide a natural, long-lasting finish.

Resin veneers are a popular option for correcting dental imperfections such as stains, chips or misalignment due to their low cost and speed of execution.

*Learn about the differences between resin veneers and porcelain veneers: Differences between dental contact lenses and resin veneers

How is the Resin Veneer made?

The application of resin veneers is a simple and minimally invasive procedure that can be carried out in just a few dental appointments. This technique offers satisfactory aesthetic results and can significantly improve an individual’s smile. They can even be performed in conjunction with dental implants for patients who need them on other teeth.

*To find out more about implants, visit: 7 Crucial Questions About Dental Implants

The material used in resin veneers is usually composite resin, which is a resistant and versatile material. Composite resin can be manipulated by the dentist to perfectly match the color and shape of the natural teeth, providing a harmonious and natural look to the smile.

It’s important to note that resin veneers can be a temporary solution, as they may need to be replaced over time due to natural wear and possible discoloration. Resin is a material that acquires pigmentation over time, turning yellowish. This does not happen with porcelain contact lenses, as porcelain always remains the same color and shape.

Growing popularity among young people

The practice of using resin veneers has gained significant popularity among young people in recent years. This trend has been driven by a variety of reasons, ranging from the search for an aesthetically appealing smile to the influence of social media and celebrities.

With the growing importance of physical appearance in today’s society, many young people are looking to improve their smile and self-confidence. Resin veneers offer a relatively affordable and quick solution for correcting dental imperfections such as stains, slight misalignments and small gaps between teeth.

Unlike other more complex dental procedures, such as implants or braces, resin veneers require less time and no drastic interventions. This makes resin veneers more attractive to young people who want a quick and efficient makeover.

However, young people should be aware of the potential risks and impacts of this dental procedure before making an informed decision. First of all, they should thoroughly assess the real need for an intervention on a healthy tooth and the long-term consequences and complications.

Risks involved with resin veneers in young people

Resin veneers have gained popularity among young people, but it is important to be aware of the risks involved in this procedure. Although it is a non-invasive method of improving the appearance of teeth, there are possible complications and side effects that should be considered.

One of the risks associated with resin veneers is the possibility of developing tooth sensitivity. As veneers involve removing a small amount of tooth enamel, teeth can become more sensitive to cold or hot temperatures. This can cause discomfort when eating or drinking food and drinks at different temperatures.

In addition, young people who opt for resin veneers can also face bite adjustment problems. If the veneers are not designed correctly or placed in an inappropriate position, this can affect the way the teeth fit together when closing the mouth. This can lead to chewing problems, jaw pain and even speech problems.

Another risk of resin veneers is excessive wear on the teeth. Due to the material used in veneers, such as composite resin, teeth can wear down faster than normal. This can result in irreversible damage to the teeth and require additional dental treatment in the future, possibly leading to tooth loss and the need for dental implants.

It is essential that young people are aware of these risks before opting for resin veneers. Consulting a dentist specializing in cosmetic dentistry is essential for a complete assessment of oral health and determining whether the procedure is appropriate for each specific case.

“Although resin veneers can provide a significant aesthetic improvement, it is important to weigh up the potential risks. Young people should seek adequate information and make an informed decision about the procedure.” – Dr. Roberto Markarian, ImplArt Clinic.

Reversibility of resin veneers

In this section, we will explore whether resin veneers can be removed and whether it is possible to reverse their effects. It is important that readers are aware of the procedures involved in removing resin veneers and the options available.

Resin veneers are reversible, which means that they can be removed if necessary or desired. However, the removal of resin veneers requires the knowledge and skill of a qualified dentist.

There are different methods for removing resin veneers, depending on the type of adhesive used in their initial placement. The dentist can use techniques such as mechanical removal, using special drills, or chemical removal, using specific solvents.

It is important to note that removing resin veneers can result in damage to the teeth, such as loss of enamel or small fractures. It is therefore essential to seek the advice of a qualified professional before opting to remove veneers.

“Resin veneers should be removed by an experienced dentist to ensure safety and minimize the risk of damage to natural teeth.” – Dr. Roberto Markarian

If the patient decides to remove the resin veneers, it may be necessary to plan additional treatment to restore the appearance and functionality of the teeth. The dentist will be able to evaluate other options, such as dental crowns or dental contact lenses, to achieve the desired result.

In conclusion, resin veneers are reversible and can be removed by a qualified dentist. However, it is essential to consider the potential risks and the impact on oral health before making the decision to remove them.

Removal methods	Description
Mechanical removal	Use of special drills to separate the resin veneers from the natural teeth.
Chemical removal	Application of specific solvents to weaken adhesion between resin veneers and natural teeth.

Alternatives to resin veneers

For those who want to improve the appearance of their teeth, there are alternatives to resin veneers. In addition to the resin veneers procedure, there are other dental treatments available that can give stunning aesthetic results.

Dental Contact Lenses

One of the popular alternatives to resin veneers are dental contact lenses. These ultra-thin porcelain veneers are applied to the surface of the teeth, providing a natural appearance and a perfect smile. Dental contact lenses or porcelain veneers are ideal for correcting imperfections such as stains, spacing between teeth and misaligned teeth. Contact lenses remain the same over time, without changing shape or color.

Dental crowns

Another option is dental crowns, which are protective caps placed over a damaged, discolored or worn tooth. As well as improving the appearance, dental crowns can also strengthen and protect teeth. Crowns are made from porcelain, metal or a combination of materials, depending on the needs of each patient. However, it is important to note that dental crowns are indicated for teeth that are already compromised and weakened.

The importance of a consultation with a qualified professional

A consultation with a specialist in aesthetic dentistry provides an accurate assessment of the dental condition and offers fundamental information for making an informed decision about resin veneers. At Clínica ImplArt, considered the best dental clinic in São Paulo, each case is assessed individually by Dr. Roberto Markarian, taking into account the patient’s general oral health and identifying whether this is the most suitable option for improving the appearance of the teeth.

Dr. Markarian addresses all treatment options. Alternatives to resin veneers are evaluated, presenting other treatment options that can meet the patient’s needs and achieve desired results, such as dental contact lenses and laser whitening.

Post-procedure care

After placing resin veneers, it is essential to follow specific precautions to ensure the durability and success of the procedure. Good oral hygiene and some additional care are recommended to avoid complications and maintain a healthy smile.

Daily oral hygiene

It is important to brush your teeth at least twice a day, using a soft-bristled toothbrush and suitable toothpaste. In addition, it is recommended to floss daily to remove plaque and food debris from between the teeth.

Avoid pigmented foods and drinks as they may stain the Resin Veneer

Foods and drinks with intense coloring, such as coffee, tea, soft drinks, red wine and dark sauces, can stain resin veneers over time. It is advisable to avoid excessive consumption of these products or, if consumed, to perform immediate oral hygiene after ingestion.

Avoid biting hard objects

Avoiding biting hard objects such as pens or opening packages with your teeth is essential to prevent damage to resin veneers. These habits can cause cracks, chips or even the veneers to peel off, compromising the aesthetic result achieved.

Regular visits to the dentist

It is essential to keep regular visits to the dentist, usually every six months, for professional assessments and cleanings. During these appointments, the professional will be able to check the integrity of the resin veneers, ensuring that they are in good condition and carrying out any necessary adjustments or repairs.

Post-procedure care	Recommendations
Daily oral hygiene	Brush your teeth twice a day, floss daily.
Avoid pigmented foods and drinks	Avoid excessive consumption of coffee, tea and red wine, among others, or clean your mouth immediately after drinking them.
Avoid biting hard objects	Don’t bite hard objects like pens or open packages with your teeth.
Regular visits to the dentist	Keep appointments every six months for professional evaluations and cleanings.

Regular check-ups and professional monitoring

Once the resin veneers have been fitted, it is crucial to have regular check-ups with a qualified dentist. During these appointments, the professional will assess the condition of the veneers, the health of the underlying teeth and carry out any necessary cleaning and adjustments. Regular check-ups make it possible to identify and treat any problems before they become more serious.

In addition, regular check-ups help to monitor the correct adaptation of the resin veneers and check that there is no wear or improper fit. These assessments also allow the dentist to detect any signs of complication, such as infiltrations or damage to adjacent teeth, ensuring the longevity of the veneers and overall oral health.

It is recommended that regular check-ups take place every six months, or as advised by the dentist, allowing for proper monitoring and the opportunity to make adjustments or correct problems early on.

The importance of professional support

In addition to regular check-ups, it is essential to have professional follow-up care throughout the process. During follow-up appointments, the dentist will be able to answer any questions or concerns the patient may have, offer specific guidance on oral hygiene and provide personalized care according to individual needs.

According to Dr. Roberto Markarian, professional follow-up is also an opportunity for the dentist to identify any signs of excessive wear, adjust the bite if necessary and provide valuable tips for maintaining the long-term health of the veneers and teeth.

Conclusion

In conclusion, it is crucial that young people carefully consider the dangers associated with resin veneers before joining this aesthetic trend. Although they can provide a temporary attractive appearance, these veneers also pose risks to oral health in the long term.

We strongly recommend that those interested in resin veneer procedures seek adequate information and consult a qualified professional before making a decision. It is essential to understand the possible side effects, complications and impacts on oral health before going ahead with the procedure.

In addition, there are alternatives available to improve the appearance of the teeth, such as dental contact lenses and dental crowns. Treatments can be carried out alongside dental implants or other oral rehabilitation procedures. It is important to explore all the options and seek the advice of a specialist in aesthetic dentistry.

Full Arch Dental Implants – All-on-4 – All-on-6 – All-on-X

Full Arch Dental Implants is a Full Mouth Reconstruction treatment, that can be done in the mandible (lower arch) and maxilla (upper arch), although there are important anatomical differences that interfere with the planning of dental implant surgery. Fixed prostheses on dental implants can be made of Zirconia, Pure Zirconia, Porcelain(metal-ceramic), as well as Resin.

This treatment is also known as Fixed Full-Arch Prosthesis or Implant-Supported Denture. This type of implant treatment for all teeth, allows patients to regain their smile and chew.

Dental implant surgery is currently a fairly straightforward operation, carried out in an office or hospital environment, with hospitalization for the patient’s comfort. Implants make it possible to replace missing teeth even in large areas of the arch, including in patients with all their teeth compromised by periodontal disease.
They can also be used in patients with bone loss, who may need bone grafting before or during the installation of the dental implant.

It is important to note that there are currently different types of dental implants, and the most modern ones, cone morse implants, allow for faster healing.

Full Arch Dental Implants . Implant-Supported Denture step by step

With regard to the end result, the aim is to obtain fixed dental prostheses that will remain supported on the implants. This will allow the patient to regain their masticatory function and aesthetics.

Of course, as Fixed Full-Arch Prosthesis are screwed onto dental implants, the result is a very efficient dental prosthesis for chewing, as well as excellent aesthetics and comfort.

It is therefore a much better solution than a removable prosthesis, as it provides excellent fixation and stability. In the upper arch, the full arch dental implants treatment has the added advantage of completely uncovering the palate (roof of the mouth), which improves patient comfort.

Unlike removable prostheses (dentures), which cover the roof of the mouth to allow them to be fixed and make it difficult to perceive the taste of food, All-on-X prostheses with implants are thin and occupy only the region of the dentition, leaving the rest of the mouth free, similar to the situation found when there are natural teeth. Currently, the most modern materials are the Zirconia Fixed Full-Arch Prosthesis and the Porcelain Prothesis on a Full Arch DentalTreatment.

Full Arch Dental Implants .Examinations and planning

After radiographic examinations and a CT scan of the jaws, the dental implant specialist will be able to analyze the ideal planning for the case and thus indicate bone complements such as grafts to better prepare the bone if necessary.

The jaw bone (lower arch) is more rigid and resistant, so dental implants can be installed in most cases. The upper jaw bone, on the other hand, is less dense and delicate and has a more complex anatomy.

Certainly the proximity to the nose, the maxillary sinus cavities and the greater bone loss require further study.

Full Arch Dental Implants With or Without Bone Graft ?

If bone grafting is necessary, don’t be alarmed – it’s very common. Of course, dental grafting for full archa implants is not necessarily complicated, invasive or large. On the contrary, most of the time the bone graft for a full arch implant is simple, small and restricted to the position of the implant.

Less invasive implant surgery: in our clinic we use current concepts of minimally invasive surgery for dental implants, which make the procedure faster and offer greater comfort during the procedure and especially during the healing phase of the dental implant.

Computer-guided implant surgery: this is a type of dental implant surgery offered at our clinic that is planned by computerized scans of the jaws.

For example, computed tomography, in conjunction with a digital mold of the arch (scanner), generates guides for the quick and safe positioning of implants. Click here to learn more about guided surgery for total implants.

Total implant and protocol prosthesis

Full Mouth Reconstruction Prosthesis and other types

Certainly the most common prosthesis for implanting all the teeth in a full arch is the so-called protocol prosthesis. This is a resin prosthesis with a metal reinforcement bar inside.

Over time, however, more modern ways of making complete implant prosthesis have emerged. At the ImplArt Dental Clinic, we offer more technological implant materials, which are completely made on our premises and in our own dental prosthesis laboratory (see more):

Zirconia prosthesis for total implants (metal-free total implants)

Perfect Smile with Aligners or Braces and Dental Implants

The combination of aligners or braces and dental implants is essential to ensure a complete, functional and aesthetic smile. When a tooth is lost, neighboring teeth tend to move and occupy the empty space, causing misalignment, incorrect bite and even chewing difficulties. Without proper replacement with an implant, this movement can compromise the tooth structure and even cause bone loss.

Orthodontic treatment, especially with innovative solutions such as Invisalign, repositions teeth precisely, correcting misalignment and creating the right space for a dental implant. The implant replaces the lost tooth permanently, restoring aesthetics, chewing function and preventing further tooth displacement.

At ImplArt Dental Clinic, this integration is carried out with state-of-the-art technology and a highly qualified multidisciplinary team, guaranteeing long-lasting and personalized results for each patient. In this article, you will understand how implants and orthodontic appliances can guarantee a harmonious, functional and long-lasting smile.

braces and implants in combined treatment — *Braces and dental implant treatment combined to reposition teeth and re-establish bite*

Why Integrate Braces and Implants?

The absence of a tooth directly affects oral health and the harmony of the smile. Therefore, treatment with braces will allow for better alignment of the teeth, whether for treatment with implants, dental crowns or even dental contact lenses.
Integrating braces and implants treatment offers many benefits:

1. Braces and Implants: Correct Replacement of Lost Teeth

Without adequate replacement of the missing tooth, neighboring teeth tend to lean in and occupy the empty space. Orthodontic treatment realigns these teeth, preparing the site for insertion of the dental implant.

➡️ Find out more about our implant treatments:
👉 Dental Implants at ImplArt Dental Clinic Specializing in Dental Implants

2. Braces and Implants: Preventing Bone Loss

The lack of stimulation in the area of the missing tooth causes bone resorption. The dental implant is integrated into the bone, preserving bone density and preventing changes to the facial structure.

3. Braces and implants: Bite correction and chewing function

Misaligned teeth compromise bite and chewing. Braces reposition the teeth, while dental implants complete the chewing function.

👉 Blunt dental implant and computer-guided surgery

4. Braces and implants: Aesthetics and confidence restored

The combination of aligning teeth and replacing missing teeth with zirconia implants results in a natural, harmonious smile.

The Role of Invisalign in Preparing for Dental Implants

Invisalign is a transparent, comfortable and effective orthodontic aligner, ideal for preparing the smile for the placement of dental implants. It corrects the position of the teeth discreetly and efficiently, creating the necessary space for the installation of the dental implant.

Advantages of Invisalign for Integration with Implants

Discretion and Comfort: Almost invisible aligners, which do not interfere with aesthetics during treatment.
Removable: Facilitates oral hygiene and food consumption.
Digital Planning: Allows you to visualize all the stages of the treatment before it even begins.

Zirconia Implants: The Best Aesthetic Option

Zirconia implants are the ideal solution for patients looking for aesthetics and biocompatibility. As well as being metal-free, these implants offer a more natural appearance, especially in the anterior region of the mouth.

Benefits of Zirconia Implants

Superior Aesthetics: Natural appearance without the risk of metal exposure.
Biocompatibility: Totally safe and hypoallergenic.
High durability: Superior resistance to wear and fractures.

Braces and dental implants

Root Canal or Dental Implant treatment?

When faced with serious dental problems, such as infections or severe decay of a tooth, the question arises: should you opt for root canal or dental implant treatment? According to Dr. Roberto Markarian, implant dentist and director of the ImplArt Clinic, the choice depends on a careful evaluation, considering factors such as the integrity of the tooth, general oral health and the technological options available.

The good news is that there are resources that allow you to visualize the dental situation beforehand and thus guide the initial course of action to be adopted. Even so, it’s important to bear in mind that the treatment may be altered if, during the process, a root fracture or more severe dental impairment than initially anticipated is identified.

Root canal or dental implant? When root canal treatment is the best option

Root canal treatment is indicated when the pulp of the tooth has been compromised but its structure can still be preserved. This procedure is ideal for eliminating infection, restoring functionality and maintaining the natural tooth. According to Dr. Roberto Markarian, preserving the natural tooth whenever possible offers important advantages:

Dental Proprioception: Natural teeth have periodontal ligaments that allow them to feel chewing forces, something that is lost when using implants.
Maintaining Gingival Anatomy: Preserving the tooth helps to maintain the aesthetic harmony of the surrounding gums, facilitating a more natural restoration.
Possibility of placing crowns: After a successful root canal treatment , the tooth can receive a high-quality crown, guaranteeing functionality and aesthetics.

Is it possible to be 100% sure about saving a tooth with an X-ray alone?

Some of the most common questions patients ask when deciding between root canal treatment or dental implants are: can you be absolutely sure that the tooth will be saved just by looking at the X-ray? Or even: is it possible to know for sure whether or not the tooth needs root canal treatment just by looking at the X-ray?

According to Dr. Roberto Markarian, implant dentist and director of the ImplArt Clinic, dentistry is not an exact science and, as in any area of health, it is not possible to offer 100% guarantees on results because we are talking about an organism. Although radiography is an essential tool for diagnosis, allowing the professional to assess the integrity of the root, the presence of infections and other structural conditions, it does not reveal all the details of the case. Microscopic fractures or conditions that are not visible on the scan can influence the success of the treatment and require the specialist to change their approach.

“Our mission as health professionals is to use the best available resources, such as advanced imaging exams and modern techniques, to offer the best possible prognosis,” says Dr. Markarian. At the ImplArt Clinic, we combine clinical experience with cutting-edge technologies to increase the chances of success in every procedure, whether it’s root canal treatment or the placement of dental implants.

Professional experience makes a difference when it comes to root canal treatment or dental implants

Of course, the dentist’s experience and knowledge are fundamental. In addition to radiographic analysis, it is necessary to clinically assess the tooth, the extent of the damage, possible hidden fractures, and the health of the surrounding tissue.“Our commitment is to act responsibly and offer the best alternatives available to preserve the tooth whenever possible, with a focus on long-lasting, high-quality results,” adds Dr. Markarian. Therefore, if there is a possibility of preserving the tooth, root canal treatment is the first option. Only secondly, if it is not possible to keep it, or even if irreversible damage to the tooth is identified, do we opt for extraction and a dental implant in the same surgery.

Watch the video below where Dr. Roberto Markarian talks about the benefits of extracting a tooth and placing an implant on the same day.

This approach demonstrates the importance of relying on a specialized professional, using the best practices and technologies to guarantee the most effective treatment for each patient, whether for root canal treatment or dental implants.

Is root canal treatment 100% guaranteed?

We know that root canal treatment is the last resort to save a tooth and therefore there is always a chance of failure. We must remember that although it is possible to evaluate radiographic examinations, we are talking about a health treatment whose planning may change over the course of the treatment and the next step is extraction followed by a dental implant.

See the image below for an example of a particular case in which the X-ray alone could have led to uncertainty about the diagnosis. However, the combination of the clinical assessment(swelling, pus), the patient’s report ( pain after accidentally biting a bone) and the X-ray made it possible to identify that there was a fracture in the area, culminating in the indication of simultaneous extraction and dental implantation.

dental fracture — Photo shows a tooth that was removed because it had a crack. Radiographically, the case could be mistaken for a root canal, but root canal treatment would not solve the problem because bacteria would be lodged in the cracked area.

Can I insist on a root canal?: Cases where a root canal doesn’t solve the problem

Root canal or dental implant? Even with technological advances, there are situations in which root canal treatment or retreatment doesn’t solve the problem. Root fractures, for example, can make the tooth unfeasible, making it necessary to remove it and consider alternatives such as dental implants.

Therefore, in the vast majority of cases it is not a choice between root canal treatment or dental implants, but a necessity. That’s why it’s essential to trust the professional in charge of the treatment, so that he or she can be sure of the best course of action.

Biological dentistry and root canal treatment

The current trend of biological dentistry, which is very widespread today, does not recommend root canal treatments on the grounds of toxicity. However, this claim still lacks scientific proof. Studies show that treatment, when carried out with biocompatible materials and modern techniques, is safe. At the ImplArt Clinic, we use the best practices to offer safe, long-lasting results and we value the patient’s well-being.

When Dental Implants Are Necessary

In cases where the tooth cannot be saved, dental implants are the definitive solution. The ImplArt Dental Clinic is a pioneer in technologies such as the use of zirconia prostheses and digital implant planning, detailed on our advanced dental implants page.

However, according to Dr. Roberto Markarian, “the implant, no matter how good, will never be superior to the natural tooth in terms of biology and functionality.” Some considerations about implants include:

Loss of Proprioception: Implants have no periodontal ligaments, eliminating the ability to perceive masticatory forces.
Need for Aesthetic Planning: To achieve optimal results, careful planning of the gingival anatomy around the implant is necessary

Therefore, whenever possible, the ImplArt Clinic chooses to preserve the tooth. Dental implants are only indicated when there are no other alternatives to save a severely compromised tooth.

Painless Dental Implants: Technology Makes Your Implant Surgery More Comfortable

For many people, fear of pain is one of the main reasons they put off dental treatments such as dental implants. However, with the latest technological advances, procedures have become much more comfortable, safer and faster, allowing painless dental implants surgery. Today, with methods such as digital planning using 3D tomography and computer-guided surgery, pain is no longer an obstacle for those looking to restore their smile. In this article, you will understand how these innovations are revolutionizing dental implant treatment and why the ImplArt Clinic is a benchmark in the field.

Why Are People Afraid of Dental Implants?

The fear of pain is still common and is often associated with past dental experiences or a lack of knowledge about the new technologies available. Fortunately, modern dentistry has evolved significantly, offering much more patient-friendly and comfortable solutions.

Among the new trends for pain-free dental implant treatment are fast-healing implants. These implants have nanotechnology on their surface, which speeds up the osseointegration process and further increases the chances of successful implant treatment.

Easy to get to dental clinic – on Avenida Paulista

How do I get a dental implant?

Many people want to know how to get a dental implant. The installation of dental implants is certainly a very simple procedure. In the case of single implants, it shouldn’t take more than 30 minutes to place.

How to get a dental implant if I’m afraid of surgery. What should I do?

In general, there is only mild discomfort after an implant has been placed and you’ll be able to work the next day. So you don’t need to worry about the details of how to get a dental implant.

However, it’s important to note that there is little innervation for pain in the bone, with only the gums providing sensitivity (which is easily controlled with medication). If necessary, conscious sedation can be used to reduce anxiety. Read a full article on why you shouldn’t be afraid of implants.

bone-integrated dental implant is the fixation of the implant in the bone, implants

What are osseointegrated implants?

They are a new generation of implants introduced in the 1960s, but which have only now reached a degree of universal acceptability. Osseointegrated implants are made of titanium or all-ceramic and are placed in toothless areas. They are able to perform masticatory and functional functions in a similar way to natural teeth.

It is usually carried out in two stages: firstly, the insertion of the implant – a more extensive operation – and secondly, a few months later, the placement of devices that will support the prostheses. These can be made within a short period of time after this second stage.

Today we have a wide variety of dental implants available in different lengths and diameters to meet many oral rehabilitation needs. There are even some with physical and chemical technology on the surface that favors and speeds up the osseintegration process, allowing implants and prostheses to be installed in up to 1 month.

replacing dentures with fixed implant prostheses made of zirconia, how to make an implant — *Example of treatment to replace a mobile prosthesis with a fixed prosthesis on implants (zirconia prosthesis). The fixed prosthesis offers more comfort, beauty and security than a mobile prosthesis.*

Are implants better than removable dentures?

Yes, dental implants are certainly better than dentures and removable prostheses (mobile bridges). They have similar functional capacity to fixed dental prostheses in cases of relatively small edentulous spaces.

But the choice of one treatment or another must be carefully analyzed by the professional according to the patient’s request, as the situations are very diverse and prevent discussion with fixed rules. However, in cases of total edentulism or posterior areas, the solution with implants is usually better from a functional point of view.

Read about replacing dentures with implants with fixed prosthesis

What are the chances of an implant working?

Long-term studies have shown that certain types of implants have success rates of over 90% for implants placed and success rates of over 97% for prostheses (because the loss of an implant does not necessarily mean the loss of the prosthesis, as it is supported by other implants).

However, this success rate is average and does not apply equally to all areas of the mouth. The failure rate in lower edentulous patients is close to 0% (zero percent) and in the posterior region of the maxilla, with less dense bone and after placing short implants (due to the maxillary sinuses), the rate can reach 33%. Read the full article on problems that can occur with implants.

What’s so magical about titanium dental implants?

Titanium has been used in orthopedics for many decades. Simply put, titanium does not corrode when inserted into the human body and does not show immune rejection phenomena, in the same way as other metals in the same family, such as niobium for example.

The success of the technique is due to a good set of factors and the characteristics of titanium are undoubtedly positive, but on their own they do not guarantee the success of the procedure. Success depends, in short, on the planning of the surgical technique (which avoids overheating the bone), a healing period without the prosthesis being fitted, and the fitting of a suitable prosthesis.

This implant protocol has details that cannot be overlooked, and a competent professional who is well trained in the technique can achieve excellent results.

Is there a guarantee of success when getting a dental implant? Can I get rejection?

In principle, a high success rate is a good guarantee, but in biological processes there is always a certain amount of imponderability. There is no possibility of absolute certainty of success, but due to the aforementioned rates, the discomfort of surgery is much less than the benefit of having a fixed prosthesis. Even in cases of failure, the procedure can be redone after some time.

I have a tooth with a small infection. One dentist says to do surgery on the root and leave the crown as it is. Another thinks it’s better to get an implant. The price difference is huge. Which would be better?

Both alternatives are good, depending on the indication. The first option would be indicated in cases where the root is in good condition. The second would be the best course of action in cases offractured roots, lesions or cavities, i.e. the tooth needs to be extracted in its entirety and then replaced with a dental implant and fixed prosthesis.

Nowadays there is a tendency to opt for implants because we know that the treatments last a long time and have predictable results. This way, the cost/benefit of the treatment certainly pays off.

How long does a dental implant last? What is its lifespan?

It can be said that in 95% of cases, if dental implants are not lost within the first two years of use, they are likely to last for most of the patient’s life.

Are dental implants aesthetically pleasing?

It depends a lot on the system used and the local conditions. Aesthetics have improved a lot in recent years. Remember: however good the implant and the professional, a dental implant is still a prosthesis, i.e. the replacement of natural teeth with artificial ones. Excessive expectations of implants are common, but they are usually followed by a certain amount of frustration.

In many cases, the aesthetic solution is only acceptable. The best reasoning is functional: the implant is far superior to other prosthetic procedures and in the absence of teeth, it is certainly the best that can be achieved.

Should I go back to the dentist after implants and dentures?

From the outset, patients must be aware that they are a fundamental part of the success of the treatment. They must commit to maintaining proper oral hygiene and attend check-ups for professional cleaning of the prosthesis and even for radiographic examinations to monitor the implants inside the bone.

Isn’t it overkill for the dentist to order a CT scan to analyze the bone?

No, especially in the upper arch. A detailed study using computed tomography avoids surprises, especially those in the previous question.

Will chewing ability improve after implants?

Implants have much better functional results than dentures or removable prostheses. Patients who have been wearing dentures for a long time feel a significant difference when implants are fitted.

Do I get sensitivity when I chew if I have a dental implant?

A healthy dental implant doesn’t have any kind of sensitivity or pain when chewing. The sensation of having a dental implant must be imperceptible.

If there isn’t enough bone, are there ways to increase the amount of bone available?

Yes, in the maxillary area, surgeries can be performed to augment the ridge and/or lift the maxillary sinus, taking bone from the chin, the ramus of the mandible or the iliac crest. In this way, the bone grafting technique can be used to correct small defects (powder bonegrafting ) and large defects (block bone grafting).

Read more about bone grafting here. In the mandible, deviation of the inferior alveolar nerve can also be performed, but the possibility of post-operative sequelae greatly reduces its indication.

Because it’s a foreign material, are there any risks of rejection or contamination with viruses, for example? How is an implant sterilized?

No rejection occurs , as titanium is an immunologically inert material. As for contamination, when it does occur, it’s usually through surgery and not due to flaws in the implant manufacturing process. Any of the methods normally used to sterilize implants – gamma radiation or gas – offer total safety.

Can implants be placed in people who are pre-disposed to plaque?

Yes, those with a predisposition to plaque and periodontal disease can have implants, as long as the process is controlled and there is a commitment to oral hygiene after rehabilitation, including regular visits to the dental office for professional cleanings.

How much do dental implants cost?

The price of any dental treatment can only be determined through a face-to-face consultation in which many aspects specific to each person will be assessed. Oral rehabilitation with dental implants is not a standardized procedure that is the same for everyone.

Each case has its own particularities and must be answered with specific procedures before calculating a price. We at ImplArt Odontologia would be delighted to receive your visit so that we can better understand your case! If you have any questions, please contact us through one of the channels below.

Do dental implants make the metal sensors at the bank or airport beep?

In the vast majority of cases, the dental implant is not detected by the metal sensor at the bank or airport. However, we have heard reports of sensors beeping when the dental prosthesis is made of metal. However, today we have options for metal-free dentures that don’t carry this risk, such as zirconia dentures.
