What is the general price of dental implants in Shenzhen?

Known as humanity's "third set of teeth," dental implants are a good option for restoring lost teeth, but many people give up because implantation takes up to half a year. In fact, dental implants can be placed and used the same day. Mr. Tang underwent immediate implant placement with immediate restoration, and his missing front tooth was restored in less than an hour.

Mr. Tang, thirty years old, broke a front tooth playing basketball half a year ago, leaving only the broken root. At the hospital, the doctor said the crown defect was too large for a replacement. Mr. Tang was not comfortable with other methods that would seal the tooth with a foreign object, so the gap remained. Although only one tooth was missing, it was visible whenever he opened his mouth, and children often asked him: "Uncle, why are you still missing a tooth? Even I'm not missing any..." It was very embarrassing.

When family and friends all thought Mr. Tang's front tooth gap was destined to stay empty forever, a turning point appeared like a miracle. Mr. Tang underwent immediate implant restoration in the dental department of Shenzhen Pengcheng Dental Hospital, and after the front tooth was restored, no one could tell it had ever been missing.

Immediate implant restoration achieves "immediate extraction, immediate placement, immediate use"

Immediate implant restoration is different from the dental implants we commonly hear about. In many people's view, dental implantation works like this: after tooth extraction, a healing period of 3-6 months is needed before the implant can be placed, and after implant placement, another 3-6 months are needed to achieve osseointegration before a porcelain crown can be fitted.

Immediate implant restoration, more accurately called immediate implant placement with immediate restoration, is a popular tooth restoration technique in the past two years. This method allows us to quickly restore the appearance, pronunciation and partial chewing function of missing teeth.

When Mr. Tang underwent immediate implant restoration, the director of the dental department extracted the tooth root and immediately placed the implant, then fitted a temporary crown right away; the procedure took more than half an hour. On the evening of the surgery, Mr. Tang could eat normally.

Traumatically injured teeth are most suitable for immediate implantation

Immediate implant restoration does not require waiting through a long process, so it can save us a lot of time. However, not all missing teeth can undergo immediate implantation. Mr. Tang was able to have immediate restoration because his tooth had not been missing long, his alveolar bone condition was good, and there was no obvious bone defect or inflammation around it. Immediate implant restoration is very suitable for cases such as crown defects from trauma extending below the gingiva, or tooth root fracture.

Immediate implant restoration is simply great: teeth can not only be implanted, but implanted quickly. If a tooth is lost, it can be restored the same day, and most of the tooth's function can be restored the same day.
