First of all, you need to determine which tooth you extracted. If it is a wisdom tooth, you don't need late inlay. If it is a functional tooth, it is recommended that you repair it within 2-3 months after tooth extraction (after tooth extraction, alveolar bone begins to absorb, the absorption rate is faster in the first 3 months after tooth extraction, and the absorption is basically stable after 3 months).
Hazards of tooth extraction without restoration:
1. The time of missing teeth is long, the adjacent teeth will tilt to the missing teeth, and the jaw teeth will elongate, resulting in food impaction, etc. The loss of anterior teeth not only affects the beauty, but also may cause inaccurate pronunciation.
2. Individual teeth missing and not repaired for a long time will change the oral tissue and lead to the disorder of jaw biting relationship; In severe cases, the loss of one tooth often leads to the disuse of one side of the tooth, which significantly increases the incidence of periodontal disease and caries.
3. The masticatory function decreases, and the missing part cannot bite, which affects the digestion and absorption of food.
Therefore, it is better to repair as soon as possible after tooth extraction, so as not to cause other tooth problems and then want to repair, which is more complex and half the effort!
There are three ways to repair missing teeth:
1. Removable denture has a wide range of application and can be used for various dentition defects with low cost. For patients, the repair process is relatively simple and can be removed and worn by themselves, but the sense of foreign body is strong.
2. Fixed bridge restoration can restore the morphology and function of teeth, with strong bending resistance, strong wear resistance, no deformation and stable color. However, it is necessary to repair the adjacent teeth on both sides and bond them to the abutment.
3. Implant restoration implant restoration is not only beautiful, natural, strong and similar to real teeth, but also the most important factor is that it can achieve the function of fixed denture without damaging adjacent teeth. At present, the masticatory efficiency is the closest to that of real teeth. Long service life, the longest use of implant teeth in the world is more than 40 years, and the operation time of implant teeth is short, which belongs to micro pain and minimally invasive.
