牙齿种植是解决牙齿缺失问题的现代方法。
Dental implants solve many problems associated with removable dentures.
牙齿种植可以解决许多于活动假牙有关的问题。
While conventional dentistry enables some people to wear dentures comfortably,
传统牙科虽然能做到使一些人戴假牙比较舒服,
research has shown 85% of the estimated 32 million people with dentures in this country experience some discomfort and difficulty due to their false teeth.
但调查表明三千两百万戴假牙的人群中有85%的人都有不舒服甚至生活不便的感觉和经历。
Dental implants eliminate the discomfort and embarrassment often associated with dentures.
牙齿种植消除了以上不舒服、尴尬的感受。
Where some teeth are missing, dental implants may be used to eliminate the need for a removable Partial denture by providing the support necessary for attachment of a fixed bridge.
在有缺失牙的地方,牙齿种植可以通过固定桥等辅助措施替代局部义齿。
Patients with implants have reported their confidence has been restored and their quality of life improved.
做了牙齿种植的病人都反映种植牙使他们重拾信心且改善了生活质量。
Dental implants help prevent the premature loss of remaining teeth and are a good investment in oral health.
另外牙齿种植可以防止我们现有的牙齿过早脱落,给我们的口腔健康作一笔良好的投资。
The Core-Vent System of Dental Implants is the most widely used implant system in the world. Core-Vent
种植系统是目前国际使用最广泛的种植系统。
It includes five different implant designs to meet the needs of the largest number of patients.
它有5种不同设计可以满足各类人群的不同需求。
Your dentist will decide whether a single design or combination of implants is necessary for your individual case.
你的牙医会针对你个体情况来决定你应使用单一设计还是复合设计来做种植。
Core-Vent Implants, made from biocompatible materials, can become directly attached to the jaw-bone. In dental terms this is called "osseointegration."
种植体Core-Vent由具有生物兼容性的材料做成,可直接固定在颌骨,在牙科术语中称为“骨结合”。
The implant then performs a function similar to natural tooth roots.
种植牙的功能和自己的真牙功能相同,
The implant is able to withstand biting forces similar to a healthy natural tooth.
并且其承重能力也与真牙相当。
What procedures are used to insert Core-Vent Implants?
牙齿种植是怎么做呢?
The insert of Core-Vent Implant is designed to be submerged under the gum tissue, allowing time for the implant to attach directly to the bone.
要将Core-Vent种植体植入牙龈组织以下至牙骨后固位。
After a healing period of three to six months, a brief second procedure is needed to expose the top of the implant.
经3至6个月恢复期后,做一个简短的二期手术,就是将种植体的顶部暴露出来,
An appropriate post is then attached to the implant to support a bridge or denture.
将一个种植专用桩核固定在种植体上,以协助做上部结构修复,就是固定桥或假牙。
