Implants can and do fracture most where the superstructure screws onto the part of the bone. For this reason many implantologists are conscious if fitting them on people who brux or grind their teeth. Because the implant gives a little feedback they can chew really hard with no pain until the implant fractures.

Implantologists will have assessed this along with other factors when seeing if you are suitable for an implant. Defiantly replacing one tooth is very successful, but it is not fit and forget. The superstructure will need replacing at some point and can become loose and need re-cementing. Making sure you are scrupulous about cleaning around the implant and be aware that if anything needs doing to it you will have to return to the original implantologist, as another dentist will not be willing to touch it as they become jointly liable for it. It’s a good reason to have the implantologist within easy travelling distance because even the best planned and implemented implant treatment can go wrong.

Summary

All of these implant systems work. They use the highest grade Titanium and have been treated to maximise the ability of the bone to ‘integrate’ with it. As long as a cheap dental implants which don’t have these basic features aren’t used you’ll be okay.

What to watch out for

The biggest problem that we find when people get cheap dental implants done, in Turkey, for example, is that they come to us with problems and when we come to fix it the components that we need to fix it are not ones that we have in stock, or worse still are not available because, for example, the dental implant supplier has gone out of business or does not supply to the UK. Sometimes, if you can’t tell us, or have a record of which implant brand and size has been used it maybe impossible for us to help without removing th whole implant. For example, if we have to recognise an implant off an xray we might use a website such as whatimplantisthat which has a database of thousands of different implants. If you stick to the main companies, like we do, then you can be more certain that another dentist will be able to fix problems that you might have as they will have the equipment, components and familiarity to attach to the implant, and also the corresponding components will be available, as the suppliers / manafacturers have not gone bust (it does happen !)
