What is a healing implant? A healing implant, which is often called a gum shaper, is a small device, usually titanium, that is used in dental implant implantation. Its main function is to repair the soft and hard tissues around the dental implant, while protecting the implant from plaque and food residue. The line helps with natural-looking gums. Implant restoration heals the soft and hard tissues around the dental implant.... When the implant is placed in the jawbone, the restoration is attached to the upper part and protrudes slightly above the gum line.... This allows the gum tissue to heal in a way that naturally accommodates the final prosthesis. There are different types of healing implants based on the type and design: - **Standard**: These healings are pre-made in various shapes and sizes and are more widely used due to their immediate availability, but they may not be suitable for all patients.. Known in their own right, they help maintain gum health while blending seamlessly with natural teeth.... - **Zirconia**: These are preferred due to the repulsion of braces or whole teeth.. Aesthetic and biological appeal. Compatibility.... - **Titanium**: It is the most widely used type due to its strength and compatibility with body tissues.... This type is very durable.... ### How is dental implant repair installed?.. The treatment is usually attached to the top of the dental implant after placing the implant in the jaw bone.. This process is done with local anesthesia.... The surgeon makes a small incision in the gum tissue to expose the dental implant. The healing site is then screwed onto the implant.. the surrounding gum tissue is sutured... this allows the gum tissue around the healing to heal and form a natural looking gum line.. #### 1... Hailing One Step Installation Procedures In a one-step procedure, the surgeon places the implant and the restoration at the same time... The implant is placed in the bone first, then the restoration is attached to it.... The healing protrudes from the gum surface and remains in place until the dental implant heals... it is placed on the abutment.. In the two-step procedure, after the surgeon places the implant in the bone, he covers it with gum tissue and leaves it alone. > > **Persian translation:** "After a few weeks before the abutment is attached, the heel is removed and finally the crown is placed." > > Quoted from dentalstudiocolleyville ### How long does the healing implant last?.. The healing implant usually remains in place for about one to five months.. This period allows the gum tissue around it to repair well and form a stable base for the final implant crown.. Among the most important cases of healing the loosening and falling of the implant, the following can be mentioned: 1... Insufficient bone density and lack of connection of the fixture with the jaw bone 2 .... infection 3... Improper placement of the restoration on the implant 4 .... Teeth grinding or squeezing 5... Looseness of the dental implant 6... Incompatibility of implant and jaw bone 7... Failure to check the implant by a specialist at certain times after implantation ### Complications of falling healing implants One of the most important side effects of the healing implant falling out is spending money and time again to install another treatment... In addition, since the healing was done through surgery in the gums, re-doing the surgery causes damage to the gums and jawbone. Care after installation Proper care of the restoration is vital for the success of dental implants. Patients are usually advised to be more careful about their oral and dental hygiene during the recovery phase. In the following, we discuss the most important care methods: - **Brush your teeth twice a day**: It is necessary to brush your teeth at least twice a day, ideally in the morning and before going to bed... Use a soft toothbrush and toothpaste containing fluoride and brush gently with circular movements for about two to three minutes each time... Remove plaques... Be careful not to floss so that it is used too hard on the gums... Flossing... - **Using mouthwash**: Using antibacterial mouthwash on a daily basis can help reduce plaque and bacteria in your mouth... After brushing and flossing, rinse with mouthwash to increase oral hygiene... - **Clean your tongue**: Don't forget to clean your tongue daily... Bacteria can cause infection on the surface and cause infection on the surface of the mouth. The price of the restorative implant is different according to its type and brand. Considering that the healing installation can be one-stage or two-stage, you should also consider this factor in the cost estimate. Our recommendation is to talk to your dentist about the costs before doing the implant.
