Edentulous Jaw ReconstructionAchieving Balance in Cosmetics and Ideal Dental Function
Dentures no longer have to be loose fitting, uncomfortable, noisey and difficult to eat with.Recent advances in Prosthodontics and denture fabrication processes, coupled with the use of mini dental implants (Imtec, Sterngold, Nobel Biocare, etc.) enables creative dentists to offer treatment outcomes that were once thought unaffordable by many patients. Dr. Pohl provides a wide variety of tooth replacement technologies that incorporate the use of Imtec Mini Dental Implants (MDI), the company that is considered to be one of the main developers of denture implant devices.
The adjacent drawing reflects a common configuration of mini implant devices in the lower (mandibular) jaw and the o-ring fasteners that will align with the metal housings that are incorporated into the denture or fixed bridge by Dr. Pohl.Implant placement is usually dictated by the integrity of the jawbone and usually varies from patient to patient. While this graphic shows placement of 4 implants, many patients may choose to have more implants placed, wherever possible. The Imtec implant, because of its inherent design features and size, eliminates the need for time consuming bone grafting procedures which typically require several months of healing that integrates the implant with the jawbone (process of osseointegration). Non invasive Imtec versus Traditionally Invasive Standard ImplantsImtec and Sterngold mini implants provide increased choices for patients seeking to minimize the invasive properties of many popular dental procedures and treatments.Decision Making: Mini Implants versus Regular ImplantologyPatients with special circumstances regarding current tissue health and the appropriateness of implant surgery are invited to contact Dr. Pohl for assistance in obtaining the information needed for making an informed treatment decision.Call our office at (561) 368-3440 to schedule a complimentary consultation or use our on-line Inquiries form to submit your questions directly to Dr. Pohl.
