Dental implants in patients with osteoporosis

Dental implants in patients with

 osteoporosis

 

 

 

 

Osteoporosis happens when bone

density decreases due to less bone

mass and calcium insufficiency.

It is a condition in which bones weaken

and fracture more easily.

 

Therefore, patients with osteoporosis

require special attention during

dental implant placement which

touches gums and bone.

 

 

 

Bisphosphonates which are widely used

in the treatment of osteoporosis reduces

cell destruction and increases bone

density, so nearly 80 percent of patients

take those medications.

 

Bisphosphonates slow down bone loss

and increase bone density, however jaw

necrosis may appear following dental

implant procedures due to abnormal

bone tissue.

 

 

 

 

 

In order to prevent the complication,

people which chronic disease like

osteoporosis should inform their doctor

any medication they are taking and need

thorough surgical procedure for dental

implants through precise consultation

and examination.

 

 

 

 

Dental implants in patients with chronic

disease require both accuracy and safety,

therefore it is important to choose

experienced hospital and dentist handling

tactfully high-tech equipment and

technologies
