Which implants to choose: German premium or Korean economy?

Korea joined the ranks of countries producing dental implants about 30 years ago. Initially, classic root-shaped screw models were supplied to the market from there. The emphasis was on high quality and affordable prices. Today, the best Korean implants continue to maintain this combination that is attractive to consumers. At the same time, well-known brands offer models with improved characteristics that make it possible to obtain excellent long-term results.

Specifications:

• thread
  . Double thread makes installation possible even in the most difficult cases: after bone grafting, in a hole formed after organ extraction, with low bone density. Two types of threads (spiral lock, trapezoidal) ensure reliable connection of the structure to the bone for the entire service life;
• connection to the abutment
  . The products are made in the shape of a Morse cone, guarantee the absence of cracks/gaps, protect the system from the growth of bacteria due to the penetration of liquid;
• covering
  . Rough, porous, characterized by good wettability, promotes rapid restoration of tissues surrounding the prosthesis;
• configuration
  . The implant has a cylindrical-conical shape. The narrow diameter minimizes the likelihood of injury during installation, evenly distributes pressure on the tooth, and ensures reliability and stabilization of the device even under high loads on the jaw.

Dental implants Inno (Korea) are made of high-quality medical titanium, which does not cause allergic reactions, inflammation, or rejection. The high strength properties of the metal allow the system to resist loads without deformation/destruction.

Implants from South Korea brand DIO and NeoBiotech

South Korea is home to two more quite interesting implant brands - DIO and NeoBiotech. Both brands belong to the budget class and are not included in the list of the most popular systems in Russia. DIO produces four lines of implants:

1. DIO SM
2. DIO Extra Wide
3. DIO Pro Tem
4. DIO Narrow Fix

The first two systems are designed for classical implantation and differ from each other in the type of thread. DIO Pro Tem is typically used to restore teeth in the anterior region, and Narrow Fix is ​​used as a support for fixed dentures.

Dental implants (Korea) NeoBiotech are presented on the market in three lines:

1. NeoBiotech IS (has RBK surface)
2. NeoBiotech S II Active (more modern SLA surface)
3. NeoBiotech S-Mini. Line of mini implants

Types of Inno implants

Inno brand pins may differ both in design and installation method. They can be divided into groups:

• With implant driver;
• Without implant driver;
• Short rods.

The choice of design depends on the site of implementation and the complexity of the intervention. The kit with a built-in implant driver makes it easier to install the root; a special “key” helps screw the pin into the bone. If it is possible not to tighten the rod manually, electrical devices can be connected to the implant driver.

For difficult areas, the ideal solution would be to install products without an implant driver. In terms of technical characteristics, such designs are practically no different from analogues with simplified installation. Short implants are used when the nerve is close to each other during prosthetics on the upper jaw.

6. How to properly care for Implantium implants

After removing damaged teeth, the question invariably arises about ways to restore the integrity of the dentition.
Existing defects can be closed using special implants. They replace missing units, make the smile aesthetic, and cope well with the chewing function. Today, doctors offer many highly effective implantation systems. Many of them are too expensive. Dentium offers consumers a decent combination of price and quality. It produces Implantium implants.

The company has been operating since 2000. It has its own Institute of Implantology, a clinical base where experimental research is conducted and innovative products are developed. Dentium products have already proven themselves well in Asia, America, and Europe. Increasingly, they are being installed for Russian patients in dental clinics.

Inno implant installation process

Installation of the structure is carried out in several stages:

Stage 1. Preparation.

At the initial stage, the dentist uses instruments to examine the oral cavity, prescribe tests and a CT scan. During the consultation, you must provide the doctor with information about the presence of diseases.

Stage 2. Sanitation and hygiene.

If necessary, treatment and professional cleaning of the oral cavity are prescribed. Plaque and tartar are removed using the ultrasonic method. Treatment of caries, pulpitis and other existing diseases is carried out. All medical procedures are performed under local anesthesia.

Stage 3. Implant installation.

If necessary, osteoplasty is performed - bone tissue augmentation. Under local anesthesia, the dentist excises the mucous membrane and drills into the bone tissue to the required depth using special cutters. If required, osteoplasty is additionally performed - bone tissue augmentation.

Next, the specialist forms a bone bed for installation of the structure. The rod is implanted, and the doctor places a plug on it. At the end, stitches are applied.

Stage 4. Prosthetics.

The period of osseointegration lasts from 3 to 6 months. The period depends on the method of installation of the product and the anatomical features of the patient. After complete implantation into the bone, an abutment is attached to the implant, a gum former is installed, and crown prosthetics are performed.

The survival rate of implants depends on several factors:

• Biological;
• Chemical;
• Surgical.

The high biocompatibility of Korean titanium implants Inno is confirmed by international dental research. A high percentage of osseointegration is ensured by the unique cone-cylindrical shape. This design was not chosen by chance. Using mathematical modeling, it was proven that the “hybridity” of the design makes it possible to evenly distribute the chewing load and eliminate strong pressure on the jaw apparatus.

The rounded top of the product ensures safe installation and eliminates the possibility of membrane injury and damage to the jaw nerve during sinus lifting.

The innovative coating with rhBMR-2 calcium hydroxyapatite material provides a natural surface roughness. This mineral compound is also part of tooth enamel. The required roughness of 1.75–1.95 microns allows successful integration of the implant into the bone.

Young Korean brand Dentium

The manufacturer of this brand of implants is still very young - the brand appeared on the market only in 2000. The company does not have an impressive clinical base and does not have research results on the survival of its products in the long term. However, titanium roots Dentium (Dentis) are recognized as high quality, reliable and affordable. The range includes models of various lengths and diameters, which makes it possible to choose a modification that is optimally suited for each individual case.

The manufacturer also offers a wide selection of abutments, including angular abutments for inclined installation and TiN-coated ones for maximum esthetics when replacing anterior teeth. The implants themselves have an SLA surface – slightly porous, for better adhesion to bone tissue and rapid osseointegration. Another feature is a double thread with an increased pitch - it simplifies the implantation process, making it faster and less traumatic. The products are made from high quality titanium and absolute biocompatibility. Since the brand is young, the warranty period is only 3 months. Below are the most popular Dentium models.

Super-Line model

The line includes designs designed for both two-stage implantation and one-stage installation immediately after tooth extraction and with immediate crown loading. The model with double thread and increased pitch is especially recommended for aesthetic restoration of the smile area. The length of the rods varies from 7 to 12 mm, and the diameter - from 3.4 to 5.8 mm.

The implants are suitable for classical two-stage implantation

Inexpensive Implantium systems

A budget line that includes models of various lengths (8 - 14 mm) and diameters (3.4 - 4.8 mm). The designs have a classic conical shape with three cutting edges. Self-tapping thread promotes compaction of bone structures at the time of implantation of the structure, which increases its primary stability - fixation strength. In addition, such threads reduce the degree of trauma to living tissue. The structures have a reliable hexagonal connection with the abutment, which eliminates the formation of microgaps and is suitable for most suprastructures of the manufacturer.

Conical implants with three cutting edges

Mini Slim Onebody Designs

Mini-implants are used to support removable and conditionally removable dentures. They are more suitable as temporary solutions because they cannot cope with intense chewing loads. The diameter of such pins varies from 2 to 3.5 mm. They assume a minimally invasive installation, that is, implantation through punctures, without incisions of the mucous membrane and sutures.

Slim Onebody is used for fixation of removable or conditionally removable dentures

Advantages:

• allow you to fully restore the tooth;
• slow down bone tissue atrophy in the area of ​​the missing unit;
• are a reliable basis for prostheses of any configuration (fixed/removable);
• it is possible to carry out prosthetics on a completely toothless jaw;
• can be mounted immediately after tooth extraction (express method);
• guarantee excellent cosmetic effect;
• provide durable osseointegration due to the shape, thread design, absence of mechanical contamination, and surface treatment.

The clinic’s implantologists use proven advanced techniques in their practice and regularly improve their skills. Thanks to the high quality of implantation materials, modern equipment and extensive experience of doctors, we guarantee that implantation will be carried out successfully with minimal risk of complications, and the result will last for many years.

Contraindications for restoring teeth with titanium roots

Modern dental implants, including those made in South Korea, make it possible to restore missing teeth in a wide variety of clinical cases. However, there is still a list of restrictions that prohibit the implantation of titanium rods. Here are the main contraindications:

• diseases of the blood and hematopoietic organs,
• mental disorders,
• oncological pathologies,
• connective tissue diseases,
• diabetes mellitus in the uncompensated stage,
• serious pathologies of the skeletal system,
• endocrine diseases.

Important! Classical implantation places increased demands on the condition and volume of bone tissue. If it is not enough or is in unsatisfactory condition, you will first have to undergo bone grafting.

There is also a list of relative contraindications. Some conditions impose only temporary restrictions on treatment, and after recovery or elimination of pathological phenomena, implantation becomes available. We are talking about pregnancy and breastfeeding, exacerbations of chronic pathologies, colds, insufficient oral hygiene and the presence of untreated caries.

Care

During the rehabilitation period after the procedure, special rinses, irrigators, and a soft brush should be used. When cleaning, special attention should be paid to the lingual side, interdental spaces, and superstructures.

After implantation, care for implants is the same as for natural teeth. To carry out an occlusiogram and x-ray, which help determine inflammation, pathology, and the degree of stability of the structure, you need to visit the dentist once every 6 months. If all recommendations are strictly followed, Korean Inno implants last 25-30 years.

Advantages and disadvantages

Among the positive qualities are::

• versatility;
• rapid engraftment;
• simple, atraumatic installation;
• high structural stability;
• availability of models for immediate replacement of a removed tooth;
• uniform distribution of the load on the bone, which eliminates its atrophy;
• hermetic connection of the rod with the abutment;
• low price.

Weaknesses lie in the likelihood:

• twisting the rod due to improper load distribution;
• abutment breakage due to violation of installation rules or exceeding the permissible load;
• loosening or chipping in the system due to trauma to the jaw bone;
• resorption of bone tissue around the artificial root.

Another disadvantage is that some brands are less durable, so not all manufacturers provide long-term warranties. But there are Korean implantation systems that come with a lifetime warranty.

Prices for Inno implants

The average cost of a structure in the Russian Federation is 25-35 thousand rubles. An affordable price combined with excellent technical characteristics makes CowellMedi Co models widely popular among patients and doctors.

Abutment versatility

The abutment is the connecting link between the titanium root itself and the prosthesis; it connects these two elements, and the entire structure takes on the appearance of a living tooth. produces universal abutments; their peculiarity is that they can be used for systems of different diameters. In addition, they have a yellowish tint, i.e. they do not shine through soft tissue.
