What Is The Structure Of Dental Implants?

Dental implants include components such as the body, abutment, healing cap, gingival shaper, sanitary cap, central bolt, etc.
(1) Body part. It is a crucial part for obtaining support, fixation, and stability when dental implants are implanted into oral tissues. Among them, the implant body implanted into soft tissue is called a stent, which is in a mesh shape; The body implanted into the bone is called an implant or fixation post, also known as an intraosseous segment.
(2) Pile foundation. The upper dentures are connected to the implant through it.
(3) Healing hat. Also known as a cover screw, it is a component that is screwed in and fixed to the body of an implant using threads. The main function is to temporarily cover the holes that connect the body with the foundation piles.
(4) Gum shaper. Also known as a healing abutment, in dental implant surgery, bleeding from the surgical incision can affect the operator's field of view. During the insertion of the abutment, soft tissue may be accidentally squeezed between the abutment and the body, causing soft tissue necrosis and infection. This component can solve the above problems.
(5) Sanitary hat. It is the screw at the top of the foundation pile. The function of a sanitary cap is to prevent food residue and other debris from entering the screws of the foundation before the upper dentures are installed.
(6) Central bolt. Also known as the central screw, it is a rod-shaped screw that penetrates the foundation pile and connects it to the body as a whole.
The structure and composition of implants are very precise and complex, and the materials used are also very special, which allows for better and longer lasting use of implants after implantation.
