Zirconia dental implants

Statistics indicate that there is a large percentage of middle-aged adults who have lost one or more permanent teeth. This may be due to injury, gum disease or another condition. In some cases, a patient may experience total failure of natural teeth by their mid-seventies. Tooth replacement treatment performed today can restore the smile and also reduce the likelihood of bone loss. After a thorough consultation and examination, Dr. Fallah may recommend zirconia dental implants as the most suitable form of tooth replacement.
Dental implant treatment has been in a state of continual development for more than fifty years. Because dental work is visible to the outside world, there is an even greater consideration that must be made than the ability of a material to integrate itself into natural structure. Zirconia implants gives us the best of both worlds.
Findings show the positive aspects of this zirconia oxide ceramic. This material is more lifelike, being white in tone, and exhibits other favorable qualities such as hardness and strength necessary for chewing. Zirconia also has a high threshold for stress, making it an excellent choice for long-term stability.
There are several reasons we prefer zirconia dental implants: Zirconia dental implants best treatment in Carlsbad, CA area
  • Zirconia is a more biocompatible material, mimicking many of the attributes found in enamel and bone.
  • Patients with allergies, a compromised immune system, and sensitivities can feel comfortable having zirconia implants inserted. We perform reactivity testing to determine the appropriateness of dental materials.
  • Due to the absence of metal, zirconia implants are not electrically conducive. The high quality ceramic is also resistant to corrosion.
  • Because zirconia is an inert material, there is no obstacle created along the meridian of the treated tooth. The continual support of energy flow makes this type of implant ideal for the holistically minded patient.

"What are Zirconia Implants?
Hi, my name is Dr. Fallah. I am a biological dentist in Carlsbad, California, and I want to talk to you about Zirconia implants.

Zirconia implants are made of zirconia oxide. It is a crystalline structure and has no electrical conduction, and it does not put any electrical load on the meridian system.

What are the advantages of Zirconia implants?
The biggest advantage of the Zirconia implant is because the surface is so smooth and so clear bacteria cannot stick to it effectively. So the gum tissue looks very healthy.

The other aspect of the Zirconia implant is it makes your smile look beautiful. Zirconia is also bio-compatible, and you don’t get the black lining underneath the gum.

Why should one select Zirconia implants?
We are seeing tremendous results with these implants, they are strong, beautiful, and their design ensures a very retentive implant on placement and durability. "

What is the Zirconium implant placement explained by, Dr. Fallah
Implant dentistry plays a key role in recovering tooth function when the natural tooth has been compromised. Here Dr. Fallah explains the step-by-step process that is involved when dealing with Zirconium implants for infected teeth. He explains the use of sedation dentistry as well as other technical elements of the procedure that is done to enable a smooth process as well as to prevent any further damage to the presiding healthy teeth and bone structure. Transcript

In this video I want to talk about our protocol when we are placing a zirconium implant. So we place a zirconium implant, when we have a missing tooth or following an extraction of an infected tooth. So these are 2 sort of different processes, when we are dealing with an infected tooth whether it is a root canal tooth that is infected or a tooth that is infected and has a root canal, and the patient wants to remove it. We remove the tooth after of course we do it with IV sedation and hen reason we do it with iv sedation is we want to make sure you are comfortable. The 2nd reasons we like IV sedation is that we have access to a vein and we do blood draw and with the blood draw we do 2 different protocols. One is called advanced platelets rich fibrin, which we create a fibrin membrane that has a lot of pure white blood cells, growth factors and about 1 – 2% of stem cells, and we use that in areas that we need to cover the site of extraction, also we do what is called the injectable cure F which has the same fragments of your blood but it is in a liquid form so say that we have done the extraction and the first thing we do after the extraction is done we use continuous ozone to kill all the microbes at the site of the extraction where it would have an infection there and Ozone is very potent anti-microbial and the other tools we use we obviously curate it out. Scoop out any fragments of the infection, we use piezo which is an ultra-sonic technology that loosens up all the dead tissue, and infact the born tissue and we use continuous irrigation with an isotonic saline typically use lactate granger for that and all of that helps to eliminate the infection that has been present in the jaw bone which can have all kinds of health consequences cleaning up the infection is of utmost importance and beset we use all these different techniques and protocols we want to make sure that there is no residual infection left, and then at that point if the patient chooses if they choose to do n implant then we can choose to do a zirconia implant our favorite zirconia implant is Swiss dental solutions, called SDS for short and we – it has different sizes that we pre measure from the CT scan that we do prior to the surgery and we then prepare the area for the implant the Zirconia implant the SDS – the Swiss dental solutions implant and once we cleaned up the entire area with the ozone with the pure F with the piezo, and all of that then we can based the appropriate science zirconia implant and before we place it we use the injectable that has all the stem cells, and we place the appropriate size at the appropriate what we call Tork. We don’t want to make it too rhetorical because that puts a lot of pressure on that. The bone – the healthy bone that is around the implant, we don’t want to make it too low because then it will not have a good anchorage so that optimal Tork is very important. So once the implant is placed in that optimum Tork, in area where we have injectable PRF and some of the harvested bone from your own jaw bone and that way the healthy jaw bone structure won’t be mixed with the PRF and replaced in that area. Once that is all done we place a membrane of what we call the APRF and cover all the surgical sides so nothing is open to the elements of microbes in the mouth and so on. The APRF is typrin and has white blood cells and it is a perfect barrier to protect the surgical side for healing, and the fire in typically lasts, 4 to 7 days which is perfect for healing because the first few days are the most critical time for healing and that APRF is protecting the surgical side for that critical time for that healing and sometimes especially in the front teeth area, if we have more than one implant, if you have 2 or more adjacent to each other we can actually put immediate provisional which is a huge advantage and that we don’t have to worry about not having teeth in that area, we can also do that for the back areas as long as we have 2 or more Tork and good foundational bone and if for whatever reasons the foundational bone is weak we don’t want to note it up initially we just want to give it time to integrate and then we can go ahead into the restorative phase.
