Hello, today we are going to talk about Immediate Load Protocol Prosthesis.

The Immediate Loading Protocol Prosthesis is a technique used in implant dentistry that has revolutionized the way we deal with the replacement of conventional complete dentures, dentures, by protocol-type prostheses. What are the complete dentures fixed on implants.

But then you can ask me, but Marco Polo, doesn’t the implant need three months for osseointegration to occur, to make the tooth on top of the implant?

Yes, indeed you are correct in your question, single or multiple implants really need at least three months for osseointegration.

But in the immediate load protocol type prosthesis, four implants or more are installed and arranged in such a way as to distribute the occlusal forces of the prosthesis. The protocol-type prosthesis also contains a metal structure that splints the implants, that is, it leaves them all together, preventing them from moving during mastication with lateral forces.

This type of work in dentistry is extremely fast, in three days the patient leaves with the prosthesis installed and able to chew soft food.

The treatment consists of molding the client’s mouth to first plan the complete dentures, dentures, in the teeth testing phase, in wax, once the patient has approved the aesthetics, the lip support and the teeth, a surgical guide that will guide the installation of the implants.

On the day of surgery, the implants are installed with the surgical guide, the patient’s bite is recorded and the implants are molded, we send them to the prosthesis laboratory. The next day, it’s time to try on the upper and lower prostheses with the bar over the implants, check the occlusion, the lip support, the positioning of the teeth and the choice of gum color, and we send it back to the lab for acrylize and on the third day the prostheses come acrylated and ready to be installed in the client’s mouth. Then the customer leaves able to chew rice with beans and ground beef, or shredded chicken, soft or pasty foods.

It is necessary to wait three months for osseointegration of the installed implants, when their fixation is checked and the patient is discharged from the treatment.

Of course, all this is possible if the patient has bone height, which will be analyzed by the dentist who performs this type of procedure along with a panoramic radiograph or tomography. But there is indeed the possibility of doing this type of work, and there is still a very important detail, it is a totally painless procedure.

What, Marco Polo??? Are you saying that at least four implants are installed in my mouth and it doesn’t hurt? That’s right, it doesn’t hurt. If the dentist is well prepared, there is no pain, I guarantee it.

In fact, even anesthesia doesn’t hurt, if the dentist respects all anesthesia techniques, it doesn’t hurt either.

Anyway, all this work depends a lot on the professional who will perform the procedure. It is the dentist who has to guarantee the result of the work and not the patient accepting what is done in his or her mouth.

That’s why choose well where you’re going to have your dental treatment, beware that the cheap can really be expensive and the mouth is a vital organ for our life. Mainly because it is the only organ that feeds us and it is the organ that most socializes us through the smile.

There is no such thing as a healthy mouth just with aesthetics and not being able to chew. As there is no such thing as a healthy mouth that you chew, but it does not have an aesthetic.
