Total implantation of all teeth

Implantation of all teeth: total

Oral rehabilitation with total implantation of all teeth (total implantation) is certainly a solution for people who have lost all the teeth in an arch or who would like to replace their mobile prosthesis with a fixed prosthesis on implants. The loss of teeth certainly damages a person’s quality of life and self-esteem.

The beauty of the smile is compromised and chewing is impaired. A fixed prosthesis is certainly capable of transforming the lives of those who suffer from missing teeth. However,implant rehabilitation is recommended assoon as possible after tooth loss to prevent bone loss (bone resorption).

The implants are surgically placed in the bone – usually 6 in the maxilla (upper) and 4 in the mandible (lower). Once healed, a prosthesis is fixed onto them. The dental prosthesis can be made from different materials, ranging from resin to porcelain with a metal-free zirconia structure (more aesthetic and free of metals).

implantation of all teeth

How total implants are done (all the teeth in the arch)

The time that elapses between the installation of the implants and the placement of the definitive prosthesis varies according to each case, which is assessed individually. In short, the treatment time can vary from four months to a year, depending on the patient’s condition. However, in some selected cases, it is possible to perform full-arch implants and have all the teeth fixed with implants on the same day.

This technique, called immediate loading or rapid loading, gives patients great satisfaction due to the rapid results. All of the ImplArt clinic’s dental prostheses are made in a complete in-house dental prosthesis laboratory, which guarantees the quality of the products delivered.

In addition, we work exclusively with the most modern computerized technologies called Cad/Cam, which increase the precision of the parts produced. Click here to find out more.

Advantages of a fixed prosthesis on dental implants

  • More comfortable for the gums
  • More secure chewing, speaking and smiling
  • Restores the aesthetics of the smile
  • Free roof of mouth
  • It paralyzes or prevents bone resorption (a common phenomenon in people who lose their teeth).

Implanting several teeth at the same time

The loss of multiple teeth can certainly affect your ability to chew, as well as the beauty of your smile. The best option for replacing multiple teeth is certainly the placement of a multi-tooth implant, i.e. the placement of several implants and the attachment of a dental prosthesis. A multi-tooth implant can also be called a total implant or a protocol prosthesis.

Fixed prosthesis or implants with several teeth provide good chewing ability and aesthetics

It is certainly recommended that implant surgery be carried out as soon as possible after tooth loss. This prevents bone atrophy (progressive bone loss) from occurring. Implants for 3 teeth, 4 teeth or more have some advantages over other types of treatment.

Advantages of multi-tooth implant rehabilitation

  • Neighboring teeth remain intact
  • The prosthesis is attached to the implants, offering comfort and safety for the user to chew, smile and speak
  • Ease of treatment, as the prosthetic components are prefabricated (approximately six sessions)
  • Not affected by cavities and infiltrations
  • In specific cases, it is possible to place the provisional prosthesis immediately after implant placement (immediate loading)
  • The installation of the implant prevents or stops the bone atrophy that normally occurs after tooth loss.

Implants with 3 teeth, 4 teeth or more have some advantages over other types of treatment with removable prostheses. As an alternative to placing several implants, we only have techniques that use common removable prostheses, without the use of implants. However, the indication is made after evaluating each case.

Should I have several teeth implanted or wear dentures?

Multi-tooth dental implants are an alternative to conventional dentures for those who have lost many or all of their teeth. They consist of placing metal pins, usually titanium, in the jawbone or maxilla, which serve as a support for fixed dental prostheses. These prostheses can be made of materials such as porcelain or zirconia, which mimic the appearance of natural teeth.

Multi-tooth dental implants have many advantages over conventional dentures, which are supported by the gums and can come loose or cause wounds. That’s why we’ve listed some of these advantages below:

Aesthetics, comfort and safety: Dental implants are more natural, comfortable and safe than dentures, which can move or fall out. They allow the patient to smile, speak and chew with more confidence and without fear of losing the prosthesis.


Preservation of bone against resorption: Dental implants preserve the bone structure of the mouth, preventing the atrophy that occurs after tooth loss. Bone atrophy can cause problems such as gum resorption, changes to the shape of the face, difficulty adapting dentures and the loss of other teeth.


Improved chewing function: In addition, dental implants allow for better chewing, speech and taste perception. Conventional dentures can interfere with chewing, making digestion and nutrition difficult. They can also hinder speech, causing noises or difficulty in pronunciation. In addition, they can cover the palate, reducing taste sensitivity.


Durability and resistance: Dental implants are considered to be more durable and resistant to cavities and infiltrations than dentures. They are made of materials that do not wear out or deteriorate over time. They are also easier to clean, as they don’t need to be removed for cleaning.

Protocol zirconia prosthesis for complete upper jaw full dental implant

The zirconia protocol prosthesis for the complete upper jaw is a fixed aesthetic prosthesis on a titanium dental implant for oral rehabilitation. It involves computerized design methods, and has become the most requested option among patients looking to combine the strength of the material with its superior aesthetic result in a total dental implant and protocol prosthesis treatment.

Designed using computerized technology and a 3D scanner, zirconia protocol prostheses with full dental implants are the most modern option for replacing completely lost teeth. Combined with fast-healing implant types, such as the Straumann implant, they allow for complete rehabilitation in a short space of time.

Today there are very modern dental implant options, such as the Straumann ceramic implant, or the Neodent Zi zirconia implant, an excellent option for those looking for metal-free implant treatment. It is also important to know that the healing time for a dental implant can vary from 1 to 6 months, depending on the type of implant chosen.

Why is the zirconia protocol the best material today?

Zirconia protocol prosthesis treatment is fully computerized. In addition, it allows for faster results, much more predictability in treatment, as it relies on computer graphics. It also allows for an aesthetically impeccable result and a lot of resistance. In addition, the treatment is carried out using only 3D scanners, without the need for the old conventional molds.

The absence of teeth certainly compromises aesthetics and the patient’s quality of life, which is why the placement of implants with prostheses is able to give the person peace of mind when chewing, speaking and smiling.

The zirconia protocol has many advantages over the conventional resin protocol with a metal structure. Its main qualities are aesthetics and high resistance.

Dental zirconia (pre-sintered zirconium oxide) is a translucent, light-colored material that allows light to pass through, just like natural teeth, and therefore offers an aesthetic result. In this sense, the structure of the Zirconia protocol prosthesis looks discreet inside the prosthesis, even if exposed in brightly lit environments. Certainly the most modern materials are the Zirconia protocol and the porcelain protocol on a total implant.

Zirconia is made using a computerized 3D method and is not a manual job

The structure of the zirconia prosthesis is a single piece, obtained by milling a rough block on a machine that works like a 3D printer. In other words, the treatment is planned on a computer using CAD/CAM technology. The milling machine then wears away the zirconia block until it reaches the shape of the structure of the prosthesis designed to be installed on a dental implant.

Finally, the zirconia structure is characterized with porcelain and the shade is obtained by brushing on specific coloring liquids for this purpose. It is possible to reproduce various shades that make up the same tooth, leaving the prosthesis looking very natural.

The zirconia prosthesis is then screwed onto the dental implants, which are strategically placed in the jaw. The fixed zirconia protocol on implants can bring great relief, especially for patients who wear dentures. What’s more, this model of prosthesis leaves the roof of the mouth free and the patient feels more comfortable chewing and speaking.

Another great advantage of the zirconia protocol prosthesis over the resin protocol is its resistance to staining. In principle, resin is a material that can stain or yellow over time and with pigmented foods.

Advantages of the zirconia protocol:

  • More resistant, while resin can fracture
  • More aesthetic result because there is no metal in the structure (Metal Free Prosthesis)
  • Zirconia teeth are more resistant to staining than resin teeth
  • Computerized design makes it possible to create a prosthesis that is more precise and suited to the needs of each patient
  • Faster treatment
  • Materials that are biocompatible with the human body

Indications for fixed zirconia dental prostheses – Zirconia Protocol

In principle, the patient needs to go for a consultation with an implant dentist at the ImplArt Dental Clinic, so that clinical criteria such as bone volume and general oral conditions can be assessed.

Maxillary rehabilitation with a zirconia protocol can be indicated for people with total upper edentulism, even those who have been wearing removable prostheses for a long time.

What is periodontal scraping and what is it for?

Periodontal disease is an inflammatory disease that can affect the gum tissue and the bone around the teeth. There are three stages of the disease: gingivitis, periodontitis and advanced periodontitis.

It arises mainly from the accumulation of bacterial plaque and tartar on the teeth and if the disease is not controlled, over time it can lead to deterioration of the tissues that support the teeth. As a result, dental implants may be necessary due to tooth loss.

Red gums are a warning sign

Bacterial activity releases toxins that inflame the gums and cause redness and bleeding. If not initially controlled, the gums take on the shape of pockets (called periodontal pockets) and make room for plaque and tartar to form on the tooth root.

It is therefore at this point that periodontal scraping of this material becomes necessary to avoid more serious problems, such as the tooth softening and falling out.

dental scraping

Deep periodontal treatment

However, periodontal scraping is a procedure that aims to mechanically remove tartar buildup at the level of the tooth root and helps to control and prevent the progression of periodontal disease.

Periodontal scraping and smoothing of the tooth and root removes the material that causes bacterial activity, allowing the gums to heal and return to their normal position. It is therefore done manually with the aid of specific instruments or ultrasonic vibration.

In most cases, the procedure is carried out under local anesthesia to avoid pain and discomfort for the patient, who usually already has sensitive and inflamed gums. It may be necessary to carry out more than one session in order to remove them completely.

It all depends on the stage of the disease. However, after treatment, patients are advised to take care of their oral hygiene to prevent the disease from reappearing and to return to the dentist’s office more often.

Gum scraping serves as the basis for other dental treatments

However, before having dental treatment we need to make sure that the gums are healthy and that there are no more sources of infection in the teeth. That’s why a dental cleaning and often a gum scraping is always recommended before your main dental treatment:

If you have any questions about the treatment or the price, please make an appointment or contact us. We at ImplArt Dental Clinic will be happy to help you.

Periodontal disease: how do I know if I have it?

Periodontal disease is characterized by the formation of a space between the gum and the tooth, a periodontal pocket, which helps to accumulate food debris and bacteria. It is the main cause of tooth loss in adults. As in all cases, only a dentist can determine with certainty the patient’s condition and what treatment should be carried out.

Periodontal disease self-examination

But people can find out more quickly at home what their problem is. In the case of periodontal disease, the most characteristic sign is bleeding gums. In addition, changes in the position of the teeth, swollen gums, tooth mobility, receding gums, bad breath and food retention are signs that the disease may already be present.

Periodontal disease is caused by bacterial plaque adhering to the tooth. Bacterial activity in this area releases toxins that initially cause the gums to loosen, making room for infection inside. This infection leads to the progressive deterioration of the supporting tissues of the teeth and in advanced cases, they become soft and fall out.

However, changes in the gums can also be associated with emotional causes, medication or low immunity. That’s why it’s important to have a consultation to assess the causes.

periodontal disease stages

Treatments for inflamed gums

For treatment, the patient must go to the dentist who will remove the plaque by scraping and smoothing the roots of the teeth. Surgery may be indicated if the aforementioned procedures do not reach the entire area of the compromised root. Even with proper treatment, there may be sequelae such as displacement in the position of the tooth, bone loss and gum recession. Surgical and prosthetic procedures are available to reduce these effects.

If you’re noticing any of these symptoms of periodontal disease, make sure you schedule an appointment to start proper treatment as soon as possible, and thus avoid more serious problems such as tooth loss.

Types of dental prosthesis materials

First of all, there are different materials used to make dental prostheses. Tooth loss occurs due to various factors, which is why there are also various types of prosthesis that can be indicated for each patient’s needs. Dental prostheses can be made on full-arch dental implants, protocol prostheses or even on individual dental implants. Therefore, as there are many types of prostheses, from fixed prostheses to removable prostheses ( dentures ), we have decided to explain the types of dental prostheses in a very simple way.

The aim is certainly to help you learn more about all the options available and also to help you decide on the best treatment option. See more below.

Learn about the main types of dentures

First of all, teeth are very important for health, aesthetics and well-being. The absence of teeth therefore compromises speech, chewing, social interaction and even general health.

In addition, difficulty chewing can sometimes influence the poor intake of important nutrients.

The great news is that dental prostheses today are very advanced and increasingly resemble natural teeth, not only in appearance but also in function. What’s more, there are many options for prosthetic materials, from conventional teeth to fully computerized ones

Therefore, we will discuss the main types of dentures and dental crowns and the characteristics of each one below.

Classification by type of prosthesis. By size

single dental implant
Single or individual denture – This is a denture in the shape of a single tooth element.
partial implant fixed dental bridge
Partial or multiple prosthesis – This is a bridge-shaped prosthesis that contains three dental elements, the central one suspended over the gums. It is therefore used to replace teeth that have been lost sequentially.
total implant fixed dental prosthesis
Full dentures – These are used to replace all the teeth in a dental arch when the person has no teeth left.

Description by type of prosthesis . Fixation method

By method of attachment, dental prostheses can be cemented or screwed.

bridge over teeth
Cemented crowns on teeth
screwed crown versus cemented crown
Crowns on implants can be of the cemented or screwed type

Description by type of prosthesis . Type of support

mobile dentures - materials for dental prostheses
Gum-supported dentures – Full dentures that are supported on the gums and are held in place by the shape of the denture or with the aid of attachments.
cemented bridge over teeth - prosthetic materials
Supported on teeth – The single or partial denture can be bonded to teeth that can still be maintained, usually with a treated root canal and with part of the remaining structure prepared. In this way, the partial denture can also be attached to the lateral teeth using metal clips, but this technique has some disadvantages, such as exposed metal and a certain amount of discomfort.
fixed dental bridge on dental implants
Implant-supported fixed prosthesis Single, partial or total prostheses can be fixed on dental implants surgically installed in the jawbone or mandible. In the case of complete dentures, the implants are strategically distributed throughout the arch.

Classification by type of dentalprosthesis materials

resin fixed total dental prosthesis on implants
Resin dental prosthesis – Plastic material used to make a single prosthesis, partial or total, on gums or on an implant. The Branemark protocol is a total prosthesis with a metal framework and resin teeth and gums.
metal ceramic total prosthesis
Metal-ceramic prost hesis This is a single, partial or total prosthesis with a metal structure and teeth made of dental porcelain.
zirconia total prosthesis fixed implants, zirconia is one of the best materials
Applied zirconia dental prosthesis – Single, partial or total prosthesis with an internal zirconia structure and teeth made of dental porcelain. Extremely aesthetic and similar to natural teeth.

total implant
Pure zirconia dental prosthesis – Pure zirconia is also known as cubic zirconia, or translucent zirconia, monolithic zirconia, as well as multilayer zirconia.

On the type of gum characterization and materials

zirconia total prosthesis for aesthetic implants
Artificial gum prosthesis Artificial g um prosthesis is indicated for people who have had a lot of vertical bone loss, cases in which the gums have been reshaped and therefore the arch has lost its shape, or who have lost their gums for other reasons. In this case, the artificial gum mimics the shape and color of the natural gum so that the prosthesis looks more natural and the teeth don’t get too long.
full dentures without artificial gums
Without artificial gums (teeth only) – Dentures without artificial gums are indicated for people who maintain the volume and arch of their natural gums (for example, someone who has a tooth extracted and then has a dental implant placed). It is certainly not possible to make a gumless prosthesis in all cases, so please consult us.

Type of impressions and prosthesis planning

computerized dental prosthesis design for modern materials
Computerized impression taking – Technological advances allow us to take digital impressions with intraoral scanners and processes that are part computerized and part manual. This undeniably allows us to make faster, more personalized, more aesthetic prostheses with excellent adaptation.
total implant
Conventional molding – made with putty and the prosthesis manufactured using completely manual processes. The result can be excellent, but the work can take longer.

Some of the prostheses made at the ImplArt Dental Clinic

First of all, we know that images are important for seeing the results of a treatment and analyzing the differences in prosthesis materials. We have therefore included some images below so that you can see the different types of dentures made at Clinica Dentaria ImplArt.

Invisalign transparent aligner

The Invisalign transparent aligner is undoubtedly the most modern and discreet way to align teeth and improve the beauty and functionality of the smile. ImplArt Odontologia is an Invisalign accredited dental clinic.

This modern orthodontic aligner can even help with dental implant treatment. And we’ll explain why: When there is tooth loss that is not immediately replaced with dental implants, nearby teeth tend to move, taking the place of the extracted tooth. As a result, before the patient can receive the implant, space must be “made” by moving the teeth back to their original position so that the site can receive the dental implant. Therefore, in the event of tooth loss, the ideal is to replace the lost tooth with a dental implant as soon as possible.

See below for more indications for using this modern orthodontic aligner.

Aesthetic invisible braces: how the most discreet treatment works

Technological advances in dentistry have also reached orthodontic treatments. It allows us to offer increasingly effective, faster and more discreet treatments, especially for adults who would like to align their teeth and improve occlusion without the use of metal braces.

ImplArt Odontologia offers the modern transparent aligner Invisalign as an orthodontic treatment option. This device is much more discreet than conventional braces.

A worldwide success, the Invisalign clear aligner is an orthodontic appliance with a plate format, i.e. it doesn’t have metal brackets and wires like conventional orthodontic appliances. This certainly gives it a smooth and discreet look, almost invisible.

invisalign transparent aligner
Note that the transparent aligner is fitted to the teeth and is almost imperceptible

Treatment with Invisalign consists of the sequential use of aligners with small adjustments to each one, which lead to progressive tooth movement and consequently improve the occlusion and aesthetics of the teeth.

See how orthodontic treatment with Invisalign works:

  • Our specialized orthodontic team assesses the teeth, occlusion and general oral conditions.
  • A digital mold of your teeth is then taken using the Trios 3Shape intraoral scanner.
  • The images of the teeth form a three-dimensional image of the arches. The digital template, along with intra- and extra-oral photos and radiographic examinations are sent to the manufacturer of the Invisalign aligners.
  • The Invisalign team plans the treatment and then determines the number of aligner plates that will be needed to complete the tooth movement.
invisalign digital treatment flow transparent aligner
  • The plan is sent to our team for approval.
  • If everything checks out, personalized plates are made using computerized techniques and delivered to the patient.
  • Normally, the aligner plate is changed every two weeks until the teeth reach the desired position. This type of aligner allows the movement to be made on all or just a few teeth, depending on each need. In the meantime, the orthodontist and you monitor the progress of the treatment.

Main advantages of the Invisalign transparent aligner

  • It’s practically invisible;
  • It can be removed by the patient for regular oral hygiene and plaque cleaning;
  • Can be removed before meals;
  • It doesn’t interfere with speech;
  • Does not cause irritation;
  • Results between 6 and 12 months on average.
  • You don’t need a lot of time in the office chair to make adjustments;
INVISALIGN ORTHODONTIC ALIGNER
The orthodontic aligner system consists of the sequential use of transparent aligners that are changed on average every 15 days for progressive tooth movement. The aligners are transparent and practically imperceptible in the mouth

Indications for invisible braces

The Invisalign clear aligner can be used to solve a variety of orthodontic problems, from subtle corrections to more complex treatments, either alone or in conjunction with complementary techniques. Some of the cases in which Invisalign aligners can be used:

  • Crowded teeth
  • Separated teeth
  • Dental malocclusion
  • Overbite, open bite and/or crossbite
  • Top-to-bottom bite.

ImplArt Odontologia is a dental clinic accredited to carry out orthodontic treatments with Invisalign aligners. Make an appointment for an assessment and find out if this is the best technique for aligning your teeth.

Invisalign transparent aligner treatment before and after

How much does the Invisalign transparent aligner cost?

Dental treatment prices can only be answered through a dental consultation, which can be in person or via TeleOdontology. This is because dental treatments can only be indicated after a careful assessment of the patient.

There are countless factors that influence the planning of a treatment, materials and techniques, and the professionals involved, all of which affect the amount of the budget. Schedule your appointment by WhatsApp 11 3262-4750.

Single Tooth Dental Implant

The lack of a tooth, usually lost as a result of an accident or damaged by decay, can be easily replaced by implanting a tooth (which works like a tooth root) and fixing a dental crown (which imitates the color and shape of the natural tooth) onto this dental implant. This treatment is called single tooth implant.

Most of the time, the surgery is very simple and quick and, depending on the type of implant chosen, the patient can be rehabilitated with the final definitive prosthesis in just a few months. This applies to both single and total implants.

Nowadays there are fast-healing implants, Slactive implants, for which osseointegration takes place in 1 month. In this way, the patient’s self-esteem and quality of life can be restored in a short space of time. In addition, there are now very modern treatments without the use of any metal. This is possible with the ceramic implant and the Pure Zirconia Crown, or Cerec Pure Porcelain.

The loss of one tooth leads to problems with the other teeth

Dental implants are certainly an effective solution for restoring the aesthetics and functionality of the smile. The absence of a tooth can compromise the aesthetics of the smile, but also its functionality. Missing teeth trigger bone resorption at the site, which can be prevented by implanting a single tooth. Bone loss varies from person to person, but in advanced cases it can unbalance dental occlusion.

In this way, neighboring and opposing teeth can move. For example, a person loses a back tooth in the lower arch and doesn’t replace it. The opposing upper tooth, which until then made contact with the lower tooth, loses its support and tends to move downwards over time. Dental malocclusion facilitates the development of problems such as plaque build-up, tooth decay and TMJ dysfunction. Therefore, the single loss of a tooth can lead to imbalances in neighboring teeth, and needs to be addressed with a dental implant.

Take a look at this dental implant treatment for a front tooth. Firstly, an individual dental implant was made and a temporary crown installed on the day of surgery. Secondly, after the dental implant had healed, we made the dental crown, a fixed zirconia prosthesis over the implant. Natural results and rapid rehabilitation.

Benefits of single tooth implants

Therefore, a single-tooth dental implant has many benefits over other treatment alternatives, the main ones being:

  • Neighboring teeth remain intact
  • The new crown is attached directly to the implant, which makes it possible to floss like a natural tooth
  • Excellent aesthetic and functional results
  • Ease of treatment, as the prosthetic components are prefabricated (approximately four sessions)
  • Unaffected by caries and infiltration
  • It is possible to place a temporary crown immediately after implant placement(immediate loading)
  • The installation of the implant prevents or stops bone resorption.

3D CAD/CAM dental crown – automated digital prosthesis in São Paulo

Cerec 3D is a Cad/Cam system for designing and making crowns, different types of aesthetic restorations and dental lenses more quickly and accurately. ImplArt Dental Clinic Brazil has the most up-to-date version of this system, Cerec Primemill. This computerized system can be used for porcelain crowns on remaining roots, or even as a fixed prosthesis on a dental implant.
Dental implants combined with this modern technique for making dental crowns allow patients to be rehabilitated quickly. The Straumann ceramic dental implant is the most modern and allows for metal-free treatment. The Swiss Slactive implant is the fastest healing.

Cerec System: the evolution of dental prostheses

Digital color impression and computerized teeth with the Cerec 3D system in São Paulo. This German technology consists of a color intraoral scanner, processing software and a machining unit that works like a 3D tooth printer.

How does Cerec 3D works?

The Cerec 3D system uses Cad/Cam technology, consisting of a camera, a computer and a machining machine. First, the Cerec 3D system takes digital images of your teeth using a specialized high-precision color camera (intraoral scanner).

Cerec 3D dental crown

The computer then uses these images to design a customized restoration, matching the fit and shape of the surrounding natural teeth.

onlay planning in cerec 3D dental crown 3D

Finally, the 3D printer produces the restoration or crown using robotic arms that mill a rough block of dental ceramic until it acquires the shape of the project. ImplArt is always striving to keep up to date with the latest technologies in digital dentistry. That’s why it now has the most up-to-date 3D printing version of the Cerec system, the Cerec Primemill milling machine.

The crown is then installed on the dental implant or bonded onto the prepared natural tooth.

What are the advantages of Cerec 3D?

Dental restorations with Cerec 3D are not only convenient, but also healthy. Until recently, dentists had little choice of materials, such as metal-ceramic crowns (with metal), amalgam, and resins.

As well as being dark and presenting aesthetic problems, these materials are time-consuming and inaccurate to make because they depend on manual labor and external prosthetic laboratories. With Cerec 3D, we can use strong ceramic materials to restore teeth with beauty and functionality.

  • There’s no need to remove molds with putty, as it does digital color molding
  • Tooth-colored restorations – porcelain does not contain metals or dark, unsightly materials
  • The materials are highly aesthetic, resistant andbiocompatible(such as dental zirconia)
  • Perfect fit of teeth prevents residue build-up
  • In some cases there is no need to use temporary teeth
  • In favorable cases, crowns can be installed in a few hours by Day Clinic ImplArt
  • Less use of anesthesia
  • Fewer visits to the dentist
  • Predicts results before execution

With the Cerec system, it is also possible to make an identical copy of the shape of a prosthesis that the patient is already used to, but which needs to be replaced because it was made with an inferior material or is fractured.

High-tech Straumann dental implants in Brazil

A dental implant is a titanium or all-ceramic pin that has a similar function to a tooth root, i.e. to provide support for the teeth. Over the years, dental implants have been developed with different shapes and compositions, in order to always seek better initial stabilization and durability throughout life. Currently, the fastest implant option is the Slactive dental implant version with rapid healing of 1 month. This means that one month after implant surgery, the final crown can be fitted.

We certainly can’t fail to mention the modern ceramic dental implant which, combined with the pure 3D zirconia crown, is the complete combination for metal-free oral rehabilitation. This treatment is especially suitable for people who are looking for excellence in aesthetic results, both when choosing dental implants and prostheses. In addition, it can be used for those patients who want to avoid the use of metals due to an allergic condition.

This option is gaining more and more ground as many patients want to eliminate the use of metal in their arches, either out of preference or even medical restrictions. There are currently several types of implant, each with its own characteristics, making it easier to choose according to the patient’s wishes. Let’s find out more about this very modern white implant option, which has allowed one version of the implant to be made of titanium.

Some high-tech implant models

The ImplArt Dental Clinic in Brazil only works with high-tech implants, including Straumann Swiss implants (which are widely considered to be the best in the world). Straumann offers a wide range of implants in a variety of shapes, diameters and lengths to meet a wide range of needs in implant dentistry.

Straumann Roxolid implants

Implants of reduced length and diameter, they are suitable for people with bone defects who do not want or cannot undergo bone grafting procedures. They are composed of a high-performance alloy, specifically designed above all to provide greater strength than pure titanium. They have excellent bone integration capacity.

Straumann Pure Ceramic Implants

Ivory-colored all-ceramic implants, so they resemble the shade of the tooth roots. They can be a treatment option for more apparent areas of the arch or patients with very thin gums. They can also be an option for treating patients who are sensitive to metals such as nickel.

Straumann Bone Level Implants

They have an internal prosthetic abutment connection, thus reducing manipulation of the gingival tissues. For this reason, they can be a treatment option for more apparent areas of the arches, as they provide a more aesthetic result.

Straumann SLA implants

They have a rough surface technology that provides an ideal structure for the adhesion of cells that stimulate and therefore accelerate the osseointegration process (bone formation and stabilization around the implant).

Straumann SLActive implants

They have surface technology that stimulates and accelerates the osseointegration process (bone formation and stabilization around the implant). They have a hydrophilic surface for the formation of blood clots in the implant.

The hydrophilic and chemically active properties of the SLActive surface provide a larger accessible surface area for greater absorption of blood proteins and formation of the fibrin network.

These are ideal conditions for blood clots to form and for the healing process to begin. All Straumann implants are made from safe materials that are certainly biocompatible with the human body.

High-tech dental implants – Advantages?

Tooth loss can lead to aesthetic, functional and bone problems, so a quick replacement is essential. More advantages:

Dental implants – Contraindications (each case is assessed individually)

  • In patients with general health problems
  • When there is not enough bone to place the implant (can be solved with bone grafting techniques)

Dental implants: how are they done?

The titanium implants are installed into the bone through a small operation in the dental office, under local anesthesia. Once the dental implant is in place, it takes an average of 1 to 4 months to adhere to the bone (osseointegration), depending on the type of implant chosen.

In some high-tech Straumann implant models, osseointegration can occur in less time. Therefore, after this period, the molds for the installation of the fixed prosthesis on the implants can begin.

In some selected cases, the prosthesis can be placed on the same day as the surgery with immediate loading. If you have any questions, please contact us or make an appointment. We at ImplArt Implants Clinic will be happy to help you!
