Taihai.com, December 20 (Strait Herald reporter Li Fangfang, correspondent Miao Xinyun) After doing dental implants, many patients know that they need to develop good oral cleaning Xi habits, but they neglect to develop correct chewing Xi habits, such as not biting too hard and sticky food. In addition, there are many people who feel that dental implants are very strong and biting hard food is not a problem.
In this regard, Lu Jingxiang, president of Xinglin Hospital, Haicang Hospital, Xiamen Dent Stomatological Hospital, said that a big difference between dental implants and natural teeth is that natural teeth have periodontal ligament and periodontal ligament proprioceptors, while the root of dental implants is directly combined with the jawbone, lacking periodontal ligament. When a natural tooth bites a hard object, it opens its mouth involuntarily, and at the same time, the tooth transmits the force to the periodontal ligament, which in turn distributes the force to the alveolar bone to protect itself. Dental implants, on the other hand, cannot feel the specific hardness of food when eating hard food, and do not have the so-called neurofeedback function of self-protection.
Therefore, although dental implants can withstand 35 to 40 kg of vertical force, the horizontal bearing capacity is relatively poor because there is no periodontal ligament and periodontal ligament and other periodontal tissues between the artificial root and alveolar bone of dental implants for traction and buffering. When the dental implant exceeds the bearing capacity, the excessive bite force and horizontal force can be transmitted directly to the jaw bone through the artificial tooth root, and the tooth root will loosen after a long time, and the connection between the implant and the crown may break.
With the advent of dental implants, edentulous patients can enjoy the pleasure of gourmet life. But after dental implants, you still have to pay attention to the hardness of food, be cautious about biting the shells of walnuts and hairy crabs, don't try to bite open the cap of a beer bottle, and don't experiment with your own teeth. Such patients should pay attention to daily care and cleaning, and have regular check-ups, so as to prolong the life of dental implants.
