Dental Implants Effects on Health There are no absolute specific situations where a dental implant procedure has shown to be harmful to a patient. According to the American Academy of Implant Prosthodontists, implants are made of biologically compatible materials which have undergone extensive testing over a period of several years. The materials used are largely metals, such as titanium, and have never been living tissue. Therefore, there exists no likelihood that an antigen-antibody response would cause a rejection similar to that which sometimes occurs with heart and kidney transplants. There are, however, some systemic, behavioral and anatomic issues that should be considered when discussing dental implant problems. They involve the issues of Type II Diabetes, the use of bisphosphonates and a condition known as bruxism.
Summary and Costs of a Dental Implant Procedure While specialists such as oral and maxillofacial surgeons or periodontists often play a role in the placement of implant fixtures, it is important that a general dentist or prosthodontist initiate and coordinate the process. They can best assess the merits of a dental implant against other prosthetic devices.
