Many people want to know whether people over 80 can implant teeth? Tooth loss is a problem that many elderly people will encounter, which is mainly due to the growth of age. Tooth loss will affect the masticatory function, which is very inconvenient to eat, so many people will go to the hospital to do dental implant technology. Before the operation, many people want to know whether the elderly over 80 can still implant teeth? In fact, as long as the physical condition is good, the psychological quality is good, and there are no physical problems, generally even if you are over 80 years old, you can also implant teeth.
1、 Can people over 80 grow teeth?
Now people over 80 years old can also implant teeth. Generally speaking, you can accept this technology if your body is healthy and has no bad problems. Therefore, a series of physical examinations are required before surgery. If there are serious problems, such as hypertension and diabetes, the technology cannot be carried out. In addition, if there is acute or chronic inflammation in the mouth, and the height and density of the alveolar are insufficient, surgery cannot be performed. Generally speaking, the alveolar bone atrophy of the elderly is relatively serious, and some periodontal diseases may occur. Therefore, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for careful examination and evaluation before surgery. Doctors can design more ideal solutions according to your personal situation.
2. What work should be prepared before dental implantation?
1. Conventional dental CT photography can better understand the number of dental bones and soft tissues, so that it is easier to develop more accurate plans for implant surgery. In addition, ultrasonic cleaning should be carried out within one week before surgery to better remove dental plaque and calculus. This is mainly to reduce the possibility of infection.
2. Various problems near the teeth should also be checked. If there are caries or tooth defects, better treatment should be carried out before surgery. Secondly, better physical examination should be carried out before operation. Routine problems such as blood routine test, blood pressure and blood sugar should be diagnosed to better reduce the occurrence of some complications.
3. * Later, it is recommended that you choose a professional formal hospital before dental implantation surgery. Because the environment of the formal hospital is good and the oral treatment equipment is complete, the surgery will be more smooth under such surgery.
3、 How to do the nursing work after dental implantation?
Keep the oral cavity clean after operation, and gargle the next day after operation. Do not eat too hard food for a short time after operation. Try to give priority to liquid food and semi liquid food, and pay attention not to too high temperature. In order to reduce some inflammation problems, it is recommended to take some antibiotics after surgery. Secondly, we should go to the hospital regularly after the operation. The doctor will understand the progress of recovery according to everyone's oral condition, so that recovery after surgery is conducive to adjustment at any time.
According to the above situation, we can know that the elderly over 80 years old can also implant teeth, but there is a certain premise that if there are some unhealthy problems in the body, the surgery cannot be carried out. This means that it is necessary to check before surgery, and we should also choose to go to a professional hospital for surgery. In addition, after the operation, we should also follow the doctor's advice to carry out some nursing work to make the operation recover faster and reduce some problems. I hope you can have a better consultation before the operation and discuss the required operation plan with the doctor to make the operation more ideal.
