IMPLANTS in 1 Hour" is the name of the dental implant procedure, which, unlike the traditional implantation method, has been significantly shortened. This was achieved through the development of an innovative solution using modern computer technology, Digital Design, and CAM/CAD systems.
During the visit to the dental office, the patient undergoes a comprehensive medical analysis. All elements of the craniofacial region are X-rayed, scanned, and digitally recorded. Facial expressions, gestures, smile width, and even the patient's mental attitude and personality traits are also captured. This process ensures that the new smile aligns with the patient's personality. The program enables a virtual procedure where the precise positions of the maxillary sinuses and nerves are determined. After gathering all necessary data, a virtual image of the oral cavity in 3D is created. This results in a rich documentation forming the treatment plan and the design of tooth placement. The approved design, saved as a file, is then sent to the laboratory, which creates perfectly constructed, personalized implant templates. One significant advantage of this method is that, through computer software, precise locations for implant placement are selected during the planning stage of the procedure.
During the second meeting, the implantation and the patient's new smile can be created, according to the previously established rules and action plan. The second meeting requires a bit of waiting – typically, it takes several to a dozen days. This is the time during which a real model of the patient's new teeth is created.
There is a culmination of all dental procedures, which in other cases of implantation and classical treatment methods, are usually spread across several separate visits. Old teeth, if present, are removed, and fully personalized new implants are implanted according to a developed template. Everything is done at once using local anesthesia or sedation (calming agents). At the end of the procedure, new teeth are screwed onto the implants.
To utilize the 'Teeth-in-An-Hour TM' placement system, one must have severely damaged natural teeth or teeth with a structure that does not bode well for conventional dental treatment. Of course, theoretically, there is a possibility to remove healthy but aesthetically unpleasing teeth and replace them with beautiful and shiny implants. However, it's essential to remember that there are many alternative and modern methods that can save teeth or significantly improve their appearance. It all depends on the patient's decision and the careful consideration of arguments for and against the use of one method over another.
Conventionally placed implants usually require multiple surgeries and several prosthetic visits. Not everyone can afford or wants to go through that. Hence, some patients opt for the faster 'Teeth-in-An-Hour TM' method which allows:
