BANGKOK SMILE DENTAL CLINIC GREAT SMILES START HERE
Your teeth are an important part of your personal appearance and lifestyle. Your beautiful smile enhances your overall presence, and healthy teeth allow you to eat and speak with confidence. Healthy teeth are not something to be taken for granted. Cavities, gum disease, and accidents are everyday occurrences that can lead to the loss of teeth. The loss of one tooth or several teeth can compromise your eating habits, speech, and appearance. In addition, when a tooth is lost, the bone that surrounds the tooth root can deteriorate affecting your appearance and bite.
Fortunately, now, our latest immediate
“Speedy Groovy™” implants have offered a solution
for not only immediately replacing your teeth. These
new Dental implants provide a stable foundation
for a tooth replacement that looks, feels, and functions
like your natural teeth immediately. Recently, much
has been done on placing implants, loading them
almost immediately, and then delivering replacement
teeth within a few DAYS!
Thanks to Groovy™ – our new and unique
grooved threads implant. Since bone forms more
rapidly in the grooves, the GroovyTM implants
integrate faster than another implants and are
indicated whenever immediate or early loading
is applied. The Groovy implants are preferred
over models without the groove in soft bone indications.
• Bone forms preferentially
within the grooves, compared to other parts of
the implant
• Enhanced
osseoconductive properties of the grooves and
a guiding effect on bone forming cells
• Up to 30%
increase in stability from mechanical interlock
created by bone formation within the groove
What’s new in
Groovy™?

Grooves
on all our implants you will now have
the grooves on the threads of all our implants
and on the collars, where appropriate. |
|
Groovy
on the collar too with research showing that bone loves bonding
with grooves, we have extended them to the
collar of most new implants so they:
• Increase surface area
• Increase area for bone-to-implant contact
|
|
TiUnite
is the most significant breakthrough in Osseointegration
today. The unique oxidized surface
unites the biocompatibility of commercially
pure titanium with an enhanced oxide surface
and an optimized texture. TiUnite incorporates
a multifaceted approach to influence the complex
biological events that make osseointegration
possible. |
Upon insertion,
the early bone healing phase is enhanced by
the textured titanium oxide surface. Textured
surfaces are known to accelerate the initial
healing phase through absorption of protein,
the accumulation and activation of platelets,
fibrin retention, and consequently an increased
amount of surrounding bone. |
|
TiUnite® - now
'all the way up'
Our unique implant surface, TiUnite®,
is a biomaterial with better ability to maintain
primary stability than machined surface implants,
while shortening healing times. Numerous studies
have revealed that TiUnite® enhances the
rate of osseointegration, which supports Immediate
Function™ and makes it possible for
a wider range of indications. The surface
roughness has been increased, giving the fixture
optimal surface texture with an enlarged surface
area. |
|
|
|
The surface
texture was achieved by increasing the thickness
of the titanium oxide layer. The unique combination
of controlled oxide texture and porosity will
aid in the ability to absorb proteins from
the patient's blood for optimal biologic effect.
The course of treatment described here is
one of several options available. Consult
Our implant dentists to find out what the
best solution is for you, given your specific
condition.
|
|
|
|
1:
Before the procedure
Our implant dentist makes
a first examination and takes one
or more x-rays of the area to prepare
for the procedure. |
|
2:
Installing the implant
The implant is installed. At this
time, if your bone is good, a temporary
tooth is provided that allows you
eat and function like normal almost
immediately. The implant will need
a few months to integrate with the
jawbone before the next step is taken. |
|
3:
Attaching the new crown
The final step is the placement of
the permanent ceramic tooth. The new
tooth is installed for life. No additional
treatment is needed. |
|
4:
End result
You should expect the new tooth to
fit and function just like a natural
tooth. Do your usual dental hygiene
to keep the tooth and gum around it
clean and healthy. |
