Many people have said that when I went for dental implants recently, the doctor would recommend that I use bone powder periosteumI am ready to do dental implants, and the doctor recommends using bone powder periosteum, and I feel that the operation is more complicatedToday, I will talk to you about the problem of adding bone powder and periosteum to dental implants.

1. What is bone powder periosteum?

Bone meal is generally filled in the alveolar bone and bone loss during surgery to increase the height and thickness of the alveolar bone and provide a good implant environment for implant placement. Bone meal is a medical material made after strict processing, and the bone powder of dental implants is generally divided into autologous bone meal and artificial bone meal (autologous bone meal is processed from the patient's own body, and is generally taken from the external oblique part of the mandibular angle;Artificial bone meal is chemically synthesized, and there are also allogeneic bones, which are bone meal donated by others, but it is expensive. At present, the domestic periosteal bone powder is generally about 300 yuan, and the imported one is about 1,000 yuan, and the specific ** will also be related to the missing bone mass.

The periosteum is a membrane that covers the outside of the bone meal after the bone meal is placed to prevent the loss of bone meal and promote bone regeneration.

2. Under what circumstances should bone powder be added to the periosteum?

1. If the alveolar bone is seriously atrophied due to long-term tooth loss, the alveolar bone is easy to atrophy if you are missing teeth for a long time or are older.

2. Alveolar bone loss caused by periodontal disease, in this case, if you want to implant teeth, you must first treat periodontal disease before proceeding.

3. If you wear removable dentures for a long time, this situation will also lead to gum recession and serious loss of alveolar bone.

3. What are the effects of direct planting without bone powder periosteum?

1. First of all, the amount of bone is too small, and the length of the implant is unstable, for example, some teeth have physiological depressions near the root of the tooth, which cannot accommodate a single implant nail at all.

2. It is easy to infect, resulting in inflammation and loss of dental implants. Above the maxillary teeth, there is a cavity called the maxillary sinus. If the maxillary sinus is too large or the alveolar bone itself is not much, if the implant is forcibly implanted in this area, it will directly penetrate the maxillary sinus, causing infection and even inflammation of the implant, and in severe cases, it will also lead to detachment.

3. The implant is unstable, it will also damage the tooth nerve, below the root of the big tooth, there is a nerve, called the inferior alveolar nerve, if the alveolar bone loss is serious, resulting in insufficient bone mass, and the forced implant implantation, in addition to causing the implant instability, it is also easy to damage the tooth nerve, resulting in numbness of the jaw and teeth, which is more serious.

4. If it is not beautiful enough and affects the quality of life, the dental implant will wear a crown similar to the natural one, and the edge of the crown should be located under the gums to ensure the appearance, but if the alveolar bone atrophy is serious, the bone loss is more, and there is no bone grafting, this seam will be exposed above the gums, which is not beautiful and affects the quality of life.

To sum up, before doing dental implants and implanting bone meal periosteum, go to a regular hospital for a systematic examination, listen to the advice of professional doctors, and then implant bone meal periosteum!
