WHY DO I NEED FIXED IMPLANT ARCHES (ALL-ON-X)?

COMMON REASONS FOR CHOOSING FIXED IMPLANT ARCHES AMONG OUR PATIENTS INCLUDE:

Enhanced Stability

All-on-X dental implants provide better stability compared to traditional dentures. They’re anchored securely into the jawbone, reducing the risk of slipping or clicking while talking or eating

Preservation of Bone

Traditional dentures can contribute to bone loss over time because they rest on top of the gums. All-on-X implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone deterioration.

Long-term Cost Efficiency

While the initial investment for All-on-X implants might be higher than traditional dentures, they can be more cost-effective in the long run due to their durability and reduced needfor replacements or adjustments.

Better Functionality

With All-on-X implants, individuals experience improved chewing ability, allowing them to eat a wider variety of foods without concern about the prosthetic moving or falling out.

TYPES OF IMPLANTS AND MATERIALS

TITANIUM ZIRCONIA

IMPLANTS - PROS

Titanium implants have been the traditional type used because titanium is able to fuse well with the human jawbone, but with advances in technology, new materials have come into play, such as zirconia. Here's a look at both zirconia and titanium implants and some key factors you should consider

3

TITANIUM

  • Titanium implants can come in two-piece varieties, which is helpful if angled implants are needed to correct your implant positioning.
  • The failure rate of titanium implants is thought to be significantly lower than that of zirconia implants.
  • These implants have high resistance to corrosion in the mouth and excellent biocompatibility with the bone and gum tissues

WE ARE ONE OF THE FEW CLNICS IN AUSTRALIA TO OFFER ZIRCONIA

ZIRCONIA

  • Zirconia is compatible with human tissues.
  • Zirconia implants have low bacterial attraction.
  • They have high strength and decent fracture resistance.
  • They hold up against wear and corrosion relatively well.
  • Because the material can be easily colored to match the patient’s natural tooth, they have excellent aesthetics, which can be especially crucial when replacing a front tooth

IMPLANTS - CONS

TITANIUM

  • Although it is rare, a titanium implant may fail if the patient has an allergic reaction to the metal. Patients who have a history of allergies should receive a metal allergy assessment before placement of a permanent titanium implant.
  • For patients with certain autoimmune conditions — such as rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn’s disease or diabetes — metal ions released from the implant can cause local inflammation and irritation
  • If the tissue around the implant is thin, the dark metal may show through, resulting in poor aesthetics, as the Periodontology 2000 article explains.
4

WE ARE ONE OF THE FEW CLNICS IN AUSTRALIA TO OFFER ZIRCONIA

ZIRCONIA

  • Over time, the material can deteriorate and lead to tiny cracks.
  • The material is typically only available in one-piece implants. If a patient needs a two-piece implant, which uses an angled abutment to correct alignment, they may need to choose a metal option.
  • If a patient will need any adjustment following the fitting of the implant, they should avoid zirconia, as any grinding on the surface of the implant can weaken its fracture resistance.
  • Although evidence is limited, zirconia implants may have higher failure rates compared to titanium.
