These videos are made for dental professionals. You should speak to your dentist about your implant needs and they will be able to create a treatment plan for you.
Sorry you feel overwhelmed! You are paying the dentist for those decisions. You have the assignment to show up, get new teeth and restore your smile ✊🏾
I had ten implants done in south America for 500$ each it's was the same exact procedure that's done in the USA. Bio horizon implants were used. Take it from me this brand is awesome. Check out there website
Good breakdown. That last point is crucial, especially for the patient! Nothing worse thrash having to replace an implant restoration only to find you can't get parts because the system is no longer available!!
Hi, I really like your clear and precise videos. I'm wondering if you have dealt with Osstem/Hiossen implants? If so do you have any comments on the restorative parts? Thanks
Yes, we have worked with them. They have the standard type of stock components that are available for other systems. We use Atlantis for custom abutments on Osstem/Hiossen implants.
I don't need implants (yet), but i would want the most long-term viable option with the least chance of serious infections or gum disease. Would a titanium screw, with custom Zirconia abutment (as seen at 1:05) be the best solution for that?
@@inkbold8511 It seems neither of you understood my question. Although it puzzles me how my question is so hard to understand... But that's alright! I wasn't asking either of you anyway, i was asking the actual dentist who's opinion would actually matter. Have a nice day.
If you are concerned with the recommendation of your dentist I would suggest consulting with another dentist or specialist who can evaluate your needs and give you a second opinion.
Hello Doc! I came across your videos & like a lot the way you explain things! Also, I'd like to know if technology went that far to allow a truly Pure Ceramic replacement for any of a patient's back teeth. I'm asking as I've done my research but couldn't find one option that includes a pure Zirconia solution both for the implant + abutment (as the last turned out to have some metal in it in all my searches). Now I see you mentioned in your presentation the Custom Zirconia abutment & my question comes now: is this a purely ceramic abutment & if so, does it work in combination with a Ceramic implant for the back teeth? Moreover, do you recommend ceramic implants for mastication purposes as I understood they're more likely to crack. I'd look forward to receiving your reply.
There are ceramic systems that are completely metal free. The NobelPearl and the Straumann Pure Monotype are both 100% metal free systems which can be used for posterior (back) teeth. Whether they would work for you specifically is something that would need to be determined by your dentist or specialist after they have done an evaluation.
@@88lauradiana i will have zirconia nobel pearl implant, abutment and crown for my molar also because i do not like titanium which has aluminium in it. But one of the dentist told me that even zirconia has metal mixed with it. Now i am confused. Have you had implant yet? With zirconia? What do you think about zirconia has metal in it? Are you pleased with zirconua implant, abutment and crown? Please let me know. Thanks.
@@SavDog262 i had my molar done, zirconia a year ago by holistic dentist. Make sure abutment and crown are zirconia. No titanium screw. My dentist use glue . Please read all my comments. I have to go now. When I am back, I will talk more. I am very pleased with my zirconia crown and abutment. Make sure you go to dentist that has at least experience with 25 patients getting zirconia. Do not use STRAWN, USE PEARL BOBLE ZIRCONIA.
You can do custom zirconia copings (not just screw retained crowns) on those Pure Base abutments (therefore a custom abutment) for the Straumann Pure. As well as angled screw channel Pure Base and also overdentures with the PUREloc abutment.
@@SG-qq4ig how do you know nobel pearl has no metal? I will have implant with nobel pearl zirconia. But one dentist told me that that zirconia has metal also. Now i am confused.. please andwer me.
Hi Dr. Do you think screw retained crown is the best solution with Straumann Roxolid SLActive implants? Please recommend the best solution for this implant type?
Astra Tech Implants from Dentsply Sirona. No micromovement, no microleakage, microthreads properly stimulate cortical bone, maintains biologic width, grows bone faster and maintains it longer, clinically proven to lose a maximum of 0.3 mm of bone over 5 years while most systems will lose 1 mm to 1.5 mm of bone.
Hi doc, My wife is getting ready to have a dental implant and my friend was telling us about a nuvo product that is out in the states that is part of the Straumann group. Have you heard of these and what are your thoughts?
Because of cheap labor costs in these countries, the patients can better afford higher quality. I work in a Turkish dental clinic and the patients are usually offered Straumann, Noble Biocare, etc.
I'm concerned about implant screws from China that look like standard wood screw thread. They are listed as titanium but look like stainless . They say FDA approved but I found out many electrical items that have a CE approval stickers are not Certified but instead China claims it stands for China export
That's because you are biased, 90% of medications in the USA and medical products are made in China. Even the phone you are using are made of it! The only concern you should be worried about is getting the right brand, it's the brand that controls the quality works made in China, some American branded companies want to go cheap and hence source things cheaply from China while others pay high dollar for quality man from China.
I would like to add that *any metal* (especially the implanted), that interacts with the "ground substance" causes potential differences in it, causing gigantic amounts of current to constantly flow through the spinal cord, gradually melting it.

Hi doctor I had my tooth molar number 4 extracted. Now i plan to have nobel pearl implant, abutment and crown done. But one of the dentist told me that zirconua has metal too. Now i m confused. I do not like titanium, aluminium in my mouth, not good for health. So. Does nobel pearl zirconia have metal? Can i just keep my missing tooth and not to have implant? Will i lose my jaw bone and mess up my bite? What should i do? Thank you.
@@rigao7533 i had noble pearl zirconia implant by oral surgeon periodontist 6 months ago. He was excellent and did it in 20mn. No hurt, no pain at all. If he used screw, he would use carbon fiber screw, no titanium screw. You tube shows horrible pictures about implant, but in reality, getting implant is much painless and quick and easier than cavities filling or root canal. Mind you that dentist uses lot of antibiotic when he gives you a shot to numb. And when you go home, you have to take antibiotic also. And this will damage your health. Make sure to take probiotoc pills one hour after you take antibiotic. You can buy probiotic in the cold section of natural food store like Sprouts, whole food. Eat yogurt, kefir, kim chi, sauerkraut. They have good probiotic like GARDEN OF LIFE brand. NANCY plain yogurt is good brand. It has to be NOBLE PEARL zirconia. No metal in it. I will have zirconia abutment, crown, carbon fiber screw on this Wednesday by his wife, the holistic dentist. She had done 30 cases of zirconia, so she has experience. She will use RELY X LUTING AGENT to cement the crown to abutment. she will make a tiny hole on the crown in case she need to go in and unscrew the screw that attach the abutment to the implant in case I do not like the crown . But she is confident that I will have no problem with the crown and abutment. Of course she will fill the tiny hole of the crown with composite. Make sure to have a night guard made to wear every night after you have new crown so that you do not break your crown by clenching your teeth when you sleep. My total price including implant, abutment, crown is around 6000. Insurance paid 1000. Night guard may cost 900. Do not have bridge. It is cheaper, but eventually, it will damage adjacent teeth and you will end up losing all your teeth and pay more. Good luck. Make sure to go to dentist that has experience with zirconia. At least 20 cases.
hello ..i got a question more as a doubth ....i want zirconia implants but my doctor pnly work on titanium telling me that titanium is the best trying to convince me to put titanium ...etc but i still want zirconia sience i hear alot of people that is almost as good as titanium and better estetics in time wont see the metal color ... so should i stick to my decision and search a doctor that work with zirconia ... (my doctor ...alreadu evaluate my mouth but telling me where posible to put implants and how many to put ....but no what material is better ...sience he only work with titanium always saying titanium is better)
Titanium has aluminium in it that will cause memory and health problems in future. Most dentists do not know how to use zirconia. I have to go to holistic dentist. It is more expensive. But our health is worth it. I went to 7 dentists for consultation. and research a lot. I choose nobel pearl zirconia. The dr of this channel said nobel pearl company do not mix metal with zirconia. So, i choose nobel pearl company for zirconia. And my holistic dentist use nobel pearl slso. Good luck.
@@MaxStudioCG2023 what do you mean interior? The implant is like a scew made of zirconia. Dr will put in through the gum and the bone. The abutment is like a screw made of carcon fiber that will screw the new tooth ( crown made of zirconia also) to the zirconia implant . So the whole thing is mafe of zirconia, no intetior, no exterior according to my knowledge. Make sure your dr do not put titanium posts inside the crown to strengghen the tooth. My dentist put titanium posts in my other crowns without asking our permission when he did crowns to me. Now, to undo and get new crown, it cost 2000 dollars for each crown. So. Always let your dr know you do not want titanium posts inside the crowns either. No metal in the mouth, no mercury either.
@@ThuLe-eh1xe ok ...same thing i asked ...thank you ..verry helpfull ...now i cleared my unansered queations ...ok ...that was all i want to know if the implant made of zirconia also .thank you
@@MaxStudioCG2023 my implant will cost 2120 if the insurance does not pay little bit. My abutment and crown will be 3600 if the ins does not pay little bit. So total will be5720 if insurance does not cover. If they cover, it will be 1000 less. I live in USA. Where do you live?
Nobel pearl has no metal in it. Go with nobel pearl. My dentist will use nobel pearl zirconia company with me. Please read all the comments and the dr reply. He said nobel pearl zirconia has no metal in it, but strauman has. Good luck.
@@ThuLe-eh1xe look up zirconia on the periodic table of elements. it is a metal a couple spots away from titanium, furthermore it is usually combined with yttrium which is also a metal.
There are a lot of factors that your dentist will consider when choosing an abutment. Every patient's situation is unique so the answer to that question can only be answered by a dentist who has evaluated you.
You guys are not to mechanically inclined???Measure each tooth root and design the root system sort of like the one you are removing inseead of like replacing it with a point which is NOT NATURES DESIGN. Its designed with more holding area than the top of the tooth.
