Titanium Implants

Titanium implants are being regularly utilized in dental procedures. Besides the tendency to develop an infection or spark an immune response, metallic implants are foreign bodies in themselves that can worsen outcomes for patients in the long run. The titanium implants tend to degrade, dislodge and disseminate within the blood stream produce unwanted complications. The factors that support the stability of an implant include proper fitting and blood supply at the site of implantation and surrounding bony structures. Titanium implants may fail if they dislodge from their position due to inadequate blood supply.

The factors that result in implant failure include pre-existing gum diseases, exposure to smoking and sugary diet. Implant rejection may also occur if there is poor bone support from surrounding structures due to underlying chronic conditions such as osteoporosis or osteomyelitis. Many a times a titanium implant failure is due to dampening of immune complex. This could be the case in patients with prevailing auto-immune conditions such as diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis. Early implant rejection is associated with gum swelling, inflammation, pain and difficulty in chewing. Infection at implantation site is associated with poor oral hygiene, inadequate surgical practices and dampened immune responses due to diabetes or smoking etc.

Our Holistic Dental Advisors are enthusiastic about collaborating with dental personnel to carry out a comprehensive plan that reduces the strain on immune system.
