Dental Implant Drawbacks: Exploring the Simpladent® Method

When considering dental implants, it is important to weigh the advantages and drawbacks of different treatment methods. The Simpladent® method is known for its fast, safe, affordable, and predictable results. However, like any dental procedure, there are a few potential drawbacks to be aware of.

Limited Time for Aesthetic Variations

One of the unique aspects of the Simpladent® method is the immediate loading concept, where the implants are loaded within 48 to 72 hours after placement. While this allows for a faster treatment process, it also means that there is limited time for extensive perusal of aesthetic variations. In rare cases, the desired aesthetic result may not be achieved immediately.

However, it’s important to note that the Simpladent® team is well-prepared for such cases. Their specialized dental technicians have the expertise to address any aesthetic concerns and ensure that patients are satisfied with the final result.

Bone Rebuilding Process

After tooth extraction, a natural process of bone rebuilding takes place. This is an expected part of the healing process. In some patients with very little bone supply, who may not have been suitable candidates for conventional screw implants, tiny gaps between the gums and bridge may occur.

Fortunately, these gaps can be corrected through relining or replacement of the initial bridge. It’s important to understand that the rebuilding of bone takes time and is typically finalized after approximately six to nine months. Once the bone has fully healed and stabilized, it is possible to exchange the bridge(s) if desired.

To provide peace of mind to patients, the Simpladent® method offers individual cost agreements that include the prospective bridge replacement in the initial treatment quote. This ensures that any future bridge replacements are covered and eliminates any additional financial concerns.

No Hidden “Tricks”

One of the key advantages of the Simpladent® method is its transparency. Unlike some other dental implant methods, there are no hidden “tricks” or undisclosed aspects. The Simpladent® team is committed to providing honest and trustworthy treatment, ensuring that patients have a clear understanding of the entire process.

By eliminating any hidden surprises, patients can feel confident in their decision to choose the Simpladent® method for their dental implant needs.

Conclusion

While the Simpladent® method offers numerous advantages, it’s important to be aware of the potential drawbacks. The limited time for aesthetic variations and the bone rebuilding process are factors to consider when choosing this treatment method. However, with the expertise of the Simpladent® team and their commitment to transparency, these drawbacks can be effectively managed.

Ultimately, the Simpladent® method provides a fast, safe, affordable, and predictable solution for dental implant needs. By understanding the potential drawbacks and having realistic expectations, patients can confidently pursue this innovative treatment option.
