How to install a single denture

Everyone cannot guarantee that there will be no problems with their body. Among them, dental problems are the most common one. They always bring us a lot of inconvenience and even seriously affect our normal diet. However, when there are problems with teeth, our treatment method after they fall off or are removed is to install dentures. However, many people do not know how to install dentures, so they have a fear and dare not treat their teeth. Let's learn about how to install a single denture.

The steps for installing a single implant denture are very different from those for traditional dentures. Implant dentures are advanced dentures. The main steps include implanting the implant, connecting the abutment after bone healing, and installing the crown. Placing an implant is the first step in the process of installing a single implant denture. That is, the doctor cuts the gums at the toothless area, uses special implant equipment and instruments, implants the implant, and then sutures it.

Connecting the abutment after bone healing is the second step in installing a single implant denture. It takes 2-6 months for the implant to heal with the gum bone. Once the implant is fully integrated with the jawbone, a healing abutment is attached to the implant to allow the soft tissue to take shape over two to three weeks. After bone healing, the abutment is connected to prepare for the next step of installing a single implant denture.

After the abutment is connected after bone healing, the crown needs to be installed. This is the third step in the installation of a single implant denture. After the soft tissue is formed, the doctor replaces the healing abutment with a permanent abutment, starts taking impressions, designs the restored tooth, and installs the crown after it is ready. This completes the restoration of the implant denture. This is the complete procedure for installing a single implant denture.

The above is an introduction to how to install a single denture. After understanding it, we know that the installation of dentures is generally based on the degree of tooth damage and oral conditions to make them suitable for our own teeth, so as not to cause us discomfort. Therefore, if there is a problem with the teeth, we must go to a regular dental hospital for treatment in time.
