Are there any contraindications to installing dental implants?

21/04/2023

An extremely important indicator that affects implantation is the thickness of the bone tissue. But even thinning of the jaw bones is not a contraindication, because bone tissue can be successfully increased.


However, there are absolute contraindications for which dental implantation is impossible:


  • oncological diseases;

  • radiation therapy;

  • tuberculosis;

  • immunodeficiency states;

  • blood diseases;

  • diabetes;

  • rheumatism;

  • disorders in the work of the thyroid gland;

  • mental disorders;

  • allergy to medicines.


In case of absolute contraindications to implantation, the patient will be offered to choose other types of prosthetics.


Relative (temporary) contraindications, after elimination of which it is allowed to install dental implants:


  • inflammatory processes in the oral cavity;

  • Infectious diseases;

  • acute diseases of internal organs;

  • violation of bite;

  • pregnancy and lactation;

  • smoking;

  • alcoholism;

  • menopause;

  • menstruation.


The installation of implants is the insertion of a foreign body into the bone tissue for the purpose of health improvement: restoration of chewing function, prevention of thinning of bone tissue, preservation of bite and even posture. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that the body does not reject this foreign body. This is influenced by the hormonal background, the presence of chronic diseases and acute conditions, infections, inflammatory processes.


During the listed conditions, the risk of rejection, unwanted local reactions and systemic complications, prolongation of the healing period increases. Therefore, it is important to eliminate all contraindications before implantation.


If a woman is planning a pregnancy, then all the processes related to the installation of dental implants and their implantation should be completed no later than three months before the onset of pregnancy.


Determining the patient's contraindications is the very first step in the process of installing implants. The development of dental implants does not take place without this stage. Only when the doctor is convinced that there are no contraindications or they have been successfully eliminated, it will be possible to proceed to planning the process so that the installation, healing and further service of the implants will go well.
