Many centuries ago, the idea came to the man about implanting dense material into the jaw owl, which can perform the functions of a tooth. For example, in ancient Egypt, pharaohs or rich people made golden dentures, American Indians implanted semiprecious stones, and the emperors of the Middle Kingdom practiced dental implantation of ivory prostheses. However, such procedures were incredibly complex and had many risks.
At the beginning of the 20th century, the properties of titanium were discovered, which is able to grow into the human bone. After a short period of time, American tooth doctors made up a model of a screw implant, which had a cylindrical shape. Prosthetics since the 80s of the last century has become an inseparable part of dentistry. More than 30 years have passed since the first operation, however, the cost of teeth implantation remains quite high: the price of implantation of one tooth (crown and rod) ranges from 20 thousand rubles to 50. The cost depends on the materials used, the complexity and location of the clinic.
There are no age frames for dental implantation. In any free place on the jaw, implant can be placed. This procedure allows people who have lost their own teeth for one reason or another to feel the joy of a full -fledged bite. Moreover, the implanted teeth do not differ from the present, and their reliability and convenience are not compared with standard methods of treating teeth (bridges, crowns, pins).
Dental implantation can not be done to every person. The surgeon may abandon the procedure if the patient has one of the diseases: diabetes (type II), bone marrow cancer, blood disease, immunity disorder, and also if the client has recently passed chemo or radio therapy.
