 | | Implant dentistry and bone regeneration are among the recent miracles of modern medicine. |  | | Implants are metal posts (usually titanium) that are surgically placed beneath your gums to act as artificial tooth roots once they have become integrated with the surrounding bone. |  | | The immediate implant procedure has survived 10 years of clinical scrutiny and has a proven success rate that is close to those experienced in an intact toothless site. |

 | | Godfrey counsels against this treatment, stating that the high rate of re-contracture and the risk for implant rupture that attend this procedure have led most surgeons to abandon its practice. |  | | Placement of implants beneath chest muscles rather than just beneath the breast seemed in the past to lower the contracture rates. |  | | While there is no medical consequence form saline leakage, the patient will need re-operation for removal or replacement of the implant(s). |

 | | The success and rapid growth in popularity of the root-form implant is largely due to its predictable behaviour when trying to achieve a rigid fixation with the surrounding bone and the maintenance of this state throughout many years of function. |  | | Where the clinical conditions indicate that bone grafting is required to increase the amount of bone into which implants are placed it will generally increase the time taken to complete treatment. |  | | An example of this might be the patient with no teeth in the lower jaw that has two our more implants placed in the first instance. |

 | | Using precise, gentle surgical techniques, the implants are placed into the jawbone for 3 to 6 months while osseointegration (bonding to bone) takes place. |  | | One additional and very important benefit can be the reduction or elimination of bone atrophy or shrinkage, commonly associated with loss of teeth. |  | | Just as with any surgery, there can be some pain. |

| | A Status Report on Breast Implant Safety |
 | | Breast implants had been marketed since the early 1960s--several years before the first medical device law was enacted in 1976, charging FDA with regulation of medical devices. |  | | Implant manufacturers agreed to conduct human trials in three phases: urgent need, adjunct, and core studies. |  | | Similarly, a 1994 study conducted at the Mayo Clinic found no increased risk of connective tissue diseases among implant recipients. |

| | Dental Implants and Oral Implantology |
 | | Dental implant is an artificial titanium fixture (similar to those used in orthopaedics) which is placed surgically into the jaw bone to substitute for a missing tooth and its root(s). |  | | In 1952, Professor Per-Ingvar Branemark, a Swedish surgeon, whilst conducting research into the healing patterns of bone tissue, accidentally discovered that when pure titanium comes into direct contact with the living bone tissue, the two literally grow together to form a permanent biological adhesion. |  | | Eating, talking and chewing need no longer be painful experiences. |

 | | If the implants are placed behind the chest wall muscles and the surgeon avoids cutting through the breast tissue, the incidence of capsular contractures is reduced. |  | | Capsular contractures are more common when the implants are placed behind the breast tissue and in front of the chest well muscles. |  | | The placement of another foreign body within the same area would not be advisable, although it may be feasible to place a saline implant in another area, such as behind the chest wall muscles. |
