Basal dental implantation is a method that involves installing dental implants into the deeper basal layer of the jaw bone tissue, which is particularly dense and not subject to atrophy. Thanks to this (even in the case of a significant lack of bone volume), there is no need for bone grafting. In addition, you can get teeth in one day, because... Fixed prosthetics are performed already on the 2nd day after surgery.
Implantation without bone grafting and such early prosthetics become possible thanks to the special design of the implants and their fixation in a denser basal bone. Basal implants are produced under the brands “ROOTT” (Switzerland), “Ihde Dental” or “Oneway Biomed” (Switzerland). They are distinguished from classic dental implants by the presence of a non-removable abutment, the special nature of the thread, the length of the implant, and the presence of a long polished neck.
Basal implantation: photo
In Fig. 3 you can see the differences between basal dental implantation and the All-on-4 technique, which uses the classic type of implants. The picture clearly shows that with basal implantation, the chewing load is distributed more evenly over a larger number of implants, while a bridge with only 4 implants has overhanging consoles in the area of 6 chewing teeth (which can lead to overload of the lateral implants). In turn, a bridge on basal implants no longer has overhanging consoles.
Basal dental implantation: before and after photos
- Clinical case No. 1 - the patient has complete absence of teeth in the upper jaw, and during the surgical stage of implantation, 11 basal implants were installed. Photo after (Fig. 5) - shows the appearance of the teeth after the stage of permanent prosthetics with a fixed bridge made of zirconium dioxide.
- Clinical case No. 2 – the patient also has a complete absence of teeth in the upper jaw. In Fig. 7-8 we see the stage of permanent prosthetics with a fixed metal-ceramic bridge. The patient was very pleased with the aesthetic result obtained.
Important: we specifically cited more complex clinical cases at the beginning of the article, but basal implantation can be used not only in cases of complete absence of teeth. We can successfully use this method in cases of partial absence of teeth, when the patient is missing 3 or more teeth (in a row). But if only 1-2 teeth are missing, you will only be advised to install classic implants.
More before and after photos at the end of the article.
Differences between installing basal and classic implants –
To understand where implants are installed using different implantation methods, look at the anatomy of the bone tissue of the jaws (Fig. 9-10). The bone tissue of the jaw is heterogeneous in its density. The roots of your own teeth are located in the softer spongy bone of the alveolar processes of the jaws. Spongy bone is very porous, and due to its lower density, it is most susceptible to atrophy - especially in areas where teeth have been removed.
Classical implants are installed precisely in the spongy layers of bone, and that is why a sufficient volume of spongy bone tissue of the alveolar process is very important for such implants. But the installation of basal implants occurs in deeper and denser layers of bone. This bone is called basal, and it is practically not subject to atrophy even in the complete absence of teeth.
Some models of basal implants have a very wide diameter of threads, due to which, firstly, they are well fixed in the deep layers of the bone, and secondly, they also receive the so-called bicortical fixation. The latter means that the edges of the threads will be adjacent to the very hard cortical layer of bone from the inside, which covers the jaw from the outside on all sides.
Important: precisely because the working part of these implants simultaneously has both basal and bicortical types of fixation, it provides all the main advantages of basal-type implants, for example, the absence of the need for bone grafting or the possibility of immediate prosthetics.
Types of implants for basal implantation –
There are only a few manufacturers of basal implants in the world, and only two of them are represented in Russia. The first company is Trate AG (Switzerland), which produces Roott-basal and Roott-compressive implants. The second main manufacturer is the Swiss company Ihde Dental AG, which produces basal-type implants under the BCS® and KOS® brands (in the Russian market, these implants are sold under the Oneway Biomed brand).
Today there are 2 main types of basal implants. They differ from each other in the features of fixation of the subgingival part of the implant in the bone tissue. Please note that although type 2 implants will be called “compression”, in essence they also belong to basal ones.
- “Classic” basal implants (Fig. 11) –
the working part of these implants has a pronounced thread diameter.
This thread ensures reliable fixation of the implant not only due to the basal bone itself, but also due to the bicortical fixation mechanism. The latter means that after screwing the implant into the bone, the edges of the threads will be almost closely adjacent to the hard cortical layers of the bone. The combination of implant fixation due to both the basal bone and the bicortical type of fixation leads to the fact that the implants receive high primary stability immediately after their installation in the bone. Thanks to these features, Roott-basal and BCS® implants (Fig. 8) can be used without bone grafting, even with significant bone deficiency at the implantation site.
- Compression implants (Fig. 12) –
examples of compression-type basal implants are “Roott-compressive” and KOS®.
If basal-type implants are installed only in the basal bone, then the working part of the compression implants will be fixed simultaneously in both the basal and cancellous layers of the bone. Another feature of these implants is the presence of a compression thread, which, when the implant is screwed in, seals the bone surrounding the implant. The latter quality contributes to obtaining very high primary stability. This type of implant can be used without bone grafting if the patient has moderate bone atrophy. In addition, these implants can be installed in very narrow alveolar ridges of the jaw (minimum values 2.5-3.0 mm).
- Compression implants with Multi-unit abutments –
These include Roott implants of the “Compressive M” and “Compressive MS” series.
Please note that all previous types of basal and compression implants have abutments intended only for cement fixation of fixed dentures. In turn, Roott implants of the Compressive M and MS series have non-removable multi-unit abutments, which are designed for screw fixation of dentures. Multi-unit abutments are the gold standard for prosthetics of edentulous jaws with fixed dentures on implants. Because, in fact, it is very important to be able to carry out periodic professional hygiene of the prosthesis outside the oral cavity. And to do this you just need to unscrew the screws. In addition, in acrylic and composite types of fixed dentures, artificial teeth gradually wear out, which will require replacing artificial teeth every 6-7 years and relining the denture base (artificial pink gum).Multi-unit abutments allow you to remove the prosthesis at any time and reline it (including replacing artificial teeth) and immediately install it back. Therefore, of course, Roott implants of the Compressive M and MS series are the best option for complete absence of teeth. Although more expensive.
Basal implantation: overview video
In the first two videos you can see clinical cases, including the stage of prosthetics and the appearance of the prostheses. In two other videos, we showed exactly how the surgical stage of installing basal implants takes place (without taking much time and with minimal trauma to the bone tissue).
Surgical installation of basal type implants –
Comparison with other implants
You can compare compression implants with the main types of implants:
- basal artificial roots for basal implantation. They are longer because... installation takes place in the distant dense membranes (bypassing the cancellous) bone. When using them, the volume of tissue is not important; the pin reaches the cortical layer. Allows you to avoid osteoplasty surgery.
- classic implants. They are universal, but the quality of the fabric is important, and compression ones are already used with an average degree of loss. A traditional root implant is used in single restorations.
- Dentists consider multi-unit implants with screw fastening to the prosthesis in cases of completely edentulous jaws. This system is more expensive, but allows you to remove/put on the structure to replace a part or service.
Prosthetics on basal implants (with complete absence of teeth) –
Thus, during the 1st stage of basal implantation (surgical stage), from 8 to 12 implants will be installed in your jaw. The difference in the number of implants depends on many parameters: the size of the jaw, the bone density, as well as the diameter and length of the implants that we can use in a particular patient. The number of implants does not affect the cost of basal implantation, and you will have exactly as many of them installed as needed.
And the next stage is prosthetics. But you will need to choose the option of prosthetics (a type of fixed denture) before the operation. In most cases, prosthetics are carried out in 2 stages. At the first stage, only a temporary fixed denture will be made for you, which very often can also be called “adaptive”. It will be fixed to your implants already 2-3 days after the operation. You can use this temporary prosthesis for about 2 years, after which it will need to be replaced with a permanent one.
Options for temporary (adaptive) fixed prostheses:
- Metal-plastic prosthesis (with cement fixation) - such a prosthesis will be made of acrylic plastic and have a simple metal frame inside. Such a prosthesis will only be cement-retained, which will mean that it cannot be removed from the implants without damage and the need for complete replacement. Together with the installation of 8-12 basal or compression implants, such a prosthesis will cost only 265,000 rubles.
- A prosthesis on a titanium frame (with cement fixation) - in fact, it will also be metal-plastic, but the metal frame of the prosthesis will be made of titanium.
The titanium frame makes your denture much stronger, which is very important for patients with well-defined masticatory muscles and large jaws, patients with bruxism (hypertonicity of the masticatory muscles), who have an increased risk of breaking dentures on a conventional metal frame. In addition, thanks to the titanium frame, the prosthesis will be much lighter than when the frame is made of ordinary metal, for example, a nickel-chromium alloy. In turn, this will make it much easier for you to get used to the prosthesis. The price for basal dental implantation (including the installation of 8-12 implants and a temporary fixed prosthesis on a titanium frame) will be 295,000 rubles. - A prosthesis on a titanium frame (with screw fixation) is exactly the case when Roott implants of the Compressive M and MS series, having non-removable Multi-unit abutments, will be used. This type of abutment provides screw fixation of a fixed dental prosthesis to the implants, and the prosthesis itself will be made on a durable and lightweight titanium frame. The cost of a prosthesis and installation of 8-12 implants will be 325,000 rubles.
Important: the prices listed include the full cost of the turnkey work, including all necessary x-rays, anesthesia, post-operative examinations, prosthesis correction procedures, as well as a guarantee. The warranty for any type of temporary fixed prosthesis is 1 year, but their service life is usually 2 years (up to a maximum of 3 years).

Stage of permanent prosthetics –
After 2-3 years of wearing a temporary prosthesis, it will be necessary to replace it with a permanent one. Moreover, if you initially had a cement fixation of a temporary prosthesis, then changing it to a screw one will not be possible at the stage of permanent prosthetics. Screw-fixed prostheses are a priori better, but they are much more labor-intensive to manufacture and therefore are always more expensive.
Options for permanent fixed dentures:
- Metal-ceramic bridge prosthesis - it is very important that the metal frame of such a prosthesis is not cast, but made by milling. This option of prosthetics allows you to achieve quite decent aesthetics if high-quality ceramic mass is used and the clinic has a good dental technician. The price for a bridge prosthesis with cement fixation will be from 230,000 rubles, with screw fixation – 270,000 rubles.
- Ceramic composite prosthesis (option 1) - the prosthesis will be made on an individually milled titanium frame, but the frame will be simplified (there will be no stump for each artificial tooth). Artificial teeth and artificial gums will be made from a mixture of acrylic plastic and ceramic microparticles. This is a good option for a prosthesis, which will cost about 250,000 rubles if it is cemented, and 320,000 rubles if it is screwed.
- Ceramic composite prosthesis (option 2) - it will be made on an individually milled premium titanium frame (where the titanium beam will have a stump for each artificial tooth). The frame will be lined with ceramic composite on the outside, and the artificial teeth will also be made of ceramic composite. This is an excellent option for a prosthesis, which, subject to cement fixation, costs about 400,000 rubles, and subject to screw fixation – 420,000 rubles. We draw your attention to the fact that if the difference in cost is not critical for you, then when choosing a ceramic-composite prosthesis, it is better to choose a manufacturing option where the titanium beam will have a stump for each artificial tooth. This ensures high strength of fixation of artificial teeth and reduces the risk of their breakage, which is quite possible in the absence of stumps.
- Zirconium dioxide bridge – such a prosthesis will have an individually milled zirconium frame inside, coated on the outside with denture ceramics. Artificial teeth will also be made of zirconium dioxide. This is a very aesthetic version of the prosthesis, which will look especially advantageous on the upper jaw. Its cost, subject to cement fixation, will be about 320,000 rubles, subject to screw fixation - about 370,000 rubles.
Important features of zirconia bridges:
If it is planned to make artificial crowns also from zirconium dioxide in a bridge made of zirconium dioxide, then it is not recommended to make them in the form of single crowns. It is better to make them in three blocks, similar to bridges (a block of 6 front teeth + two blocks for the chewing groups of teeth). Thanks to this, there will be only 3 seams between the artificial teeth, which will protect the prosthesis from darkening and odor.
But there are also zirconia bridges where single E-max ceramic crowns are used as artificial teeth. Such prostheses look impressively beautiful, but only for the first time. In the future, such dentures quickly darken in the area between the teeth (where the seams between the artificial crowns are located), and also begin to smell not very pleasant. But it will not be possible to solve this problem by making blocks of several crowns, because Emax crowns can only be single.
Well, the last recommendation is that if you are planning basal implantation on two jaws at once, then a zirconium dioxide bridge can be made only on 1 jaw (preferably on the upper one), and on the second - only a ceramic composite prosthesis. If you make zirconium dioxide on two jaws at once, then after 2-3 years it will end with the breakage of one of the dentures.
Option for permanent prosthetics IMMEDIATELY after surgery –
Patient reviews of basal implantation are often positive for only one reason - this type of implantation allows us to avoid the stage of temporary prosthetics and makes it possible to immediately install a permanent fixed denture. With other methods of implantation and prosthetics in the complete absence of teeth (for example, All-on-4 or All-on-6), we have the opportunity to first make only a temporary fixed prosthesis.
In this case, the prosthesis is made from a ceramic composite (a combination of acrylic plastic and ceramic microparticles), from which both artificial teeth and pink artificial gums will be made. Inside, such a prosthesis will have an individually milled titanium frame (CAD/CAM technology). In addition, such a prosthesis will require screw fixation on Multi-unit abutments. The cost of this prosthetic option will be 580,000 rubles.
Those. in this case, we save approximately 65,000 rubles on the cost of a temporary fixed prosthesis, and immediately receive a permanent screw-fixed prosthesis. Moreover, this also turns out to be much cheaper than the All-on-4 technique, where the cost of installing implants (taking into account a similar type of permanent fixed prosthesis) will cost no less than 700,000 rubles.
Basal dental implantation: patient reviews
How effective is basal dental implantation? Patient reviews most often mention the following 3 points.
Firstly, the surgical stage of implantation is quite easy, because the installation of basal implants, as a rule, does not require detachment of mucoperiosteal flaps from the bone. Even older patients tolerate the operation quite easily, and in the postoperative period, as a rule, there is no significant pain, swelling or bruising. The second point is that patients with experience wearing removable dentures especially pay attention to the fact that a completely fixed denture is fixed on implants already in the first 2-3 days after surgery. Moreover, they can immediately start chewing (at first only soft food). Thirdly, basal implantation in the complete absence of teeth is the only technique that allows you to immediately install a permanent fixed prosthesis. It will be made of ceramic composite on a milled titanium beam.
All other alternative methods (for example, All-on-4) initially involve only the stage of temporary prosthetics. If, when installing basal implants, you choose the option of immediate prosthetics with a permanent prosthesis, you save approximately 150,000 rubles (when compared with a similar type of permanent All-on-4 prosthesis). The savings are achieved due to the fact that we save on a temporary fixed prosthesis, which in itself is not cheap. Below we will talk about the disadvantages.
Clinical case No. 3 – complete absence of teeth in the lower jaw. Basal implants with multi-unit abutments were installed. In Fig. In Fig. 18 you can see a fitting of the titanium frame of the future prosthesis, and in Fig. 19 you can see the finished fixed bridge prosthesis (with screw fixation).
Clinical case No. 4 - prosthetics of missing 5-6-7 teeth on the lower jaw with a metal-ceramic bridge prosthesis on three compression implants.
Reliability and durability –
Clinical studies show that in patients who have undergone installation of basal implants, the “survival” rate of implants for 8-10 years is about 98% success in the lower jaw and approximately 95% in the upper jaw. These are quite high figures. It should be clarified that a lower success rate in the lower jaw is natural (including for other implantation techniques).
A higher success rate in the mandible is associated with greater bone density (bone types D1 and D2). The upper jaw consists of softer bone (types D3 and the softest - D4), which is generally not very good for implantation, because The primary stability of implants in soft bone is much worse, which also affects their survival rate.
As for the durability of prostheses, the highest quality options are - 1) a ceramic composite prosthesis, in which the frame is made in the form of an individually milled titanium beam (the beam must have “ledges” for each artificial tooth), 2) a bridge prosthesis made of zirconium dioxide. And of course, prostheses should only have screw fixation to implants, which will allow for better servicing of the prosthesis in the clinic, and also reduce the risk of inflammation around the implants.
Less risk of peri-implantitis and rejection –
The design of basal implants assumes that the implant and abutment are a monolithic unit. This assumes that there is no connection between them (and, accordingly, a microgap), which reduces the risk of bacterial colonization of the microgap and the development of peri-implant. The second important point is that basal implants have a long polished neck, which can additionally be anodized (Fig. 23).
Due to the long neck, the osseointegration zone of the implants (i.e., the zone of fusion of the root part of the implants with the bone) is located deep in the bone. For example, the osseointegration zone of classical implants begins immediately under the mucous membrane. It turns out that anodizing complicates the adhesion of bacteria to the neck of the implant, and the long neck prevents their migration to the osseointegration zone, i.e. where their carving begins (24stoma.ru).
The best implantation option for smokers is
Firstly, when smoking, nicotine affects the blood vessels in the mucous membrane of the gums and the surface layers of the bone, leading to a narrowing of the lumen of these vessels. The consequence of this is a decrease in blood flow, impaired saturation of tissues with oxygen and nutrients, which greatly affects the healing process after surgery. Secondly, smoking leads to the development of dry oral mucosa, which promotes increased growth of pathogenic bacteria.
These two factors greatly increase the risk of developing peri-implantitis in smokers, as well as the risk of implant rejection. According to statistics, the percentage of implant rejection in smokers is 2 times higher than in non-smoking patients. However, the osseointegration zone of basal implants is located in deeper parts of the bone (compared to classical implants), and therefore vasoconstriction in the mucosa and superficial layers of the bone during smoking is no longer so important.
Care
Compression implants have a lifetime guarantee and do not require special care. But for the most important period - engraftment and recovery, you must follow the doctor’s recommendations:
- exclude hot and cold foods for the first week after surgery;
- start with soft food, baby food, purees, etc.;
- make mouth baths using antiseptics;
- take medications prescribed by a doctor;
- use a soft toothbrush and irrigator;
- after eating, rinse your mouth to remove leftover food;
- visit the dentist twice a year.
After installing the prosthesis, it is the prosthesis that requires care, not the artificial root. A specialist can tell you more about the design features at your appointment.
Disadvantages of basal implantation –
Negative reviews of basal dental implantation are also found, and most often these are patients with a large degree of jaw atrophy (loss of bone height). Techniques such as All-on-4 or basal implantation are positioned as “implantation without bone grafting.” This is true, but in this case we are simply obliged to compensate for the lost height of the jaws, and if we do not do this with bone grafting, then the only option left for us is to do this with the artificial gum of a denture.
Thus, with jaw atrophy, a fixed denture will always have an artificial pink gum, the size of which will correspond to the lost bone volume. Some patients remain disappointed by this. Therefore, patients who want to get an ideal aesthetic result are recommended to undergo bone grafting for aesthetic reasons (so that the prosthesis then has as little artificial gum as possible).
Also, sometimes you come across reviews that after basal implantation in the upper jaw, sinusitis may occur. Yes it is possible. But to exactly the same extent as after any other implantation technique, where implants are installed near the maxillary sinuses. In this case, sinusitis is not associated with the basal implantation technique, but with the skills of a particular implant surgeon and his mistake when installing implants.
Other disadvantages are related to patients’ attempts to save money. Choosing cement rather than screw fixation increases the risk of developing inflammation around the implants and the appearance of odor from under the crowns. Choosing cheaper denture options also has its consequences. For example, metal ceramics often chip. And when choosing the option of a ceramic-composite prosthesis, where the titanium bar will not have special stumps for each artificial tooth, it increases the risk of breaking the front teeth in the prosthesis.
I personally had a patient with a ceramic composite denture who complained that his front teeth in the denture were broken. And he was extremely outraged by this. But we showed the patient his card, in which, along with the patient’s signature, there was a note that in addition to mandatory visits to the implantologist (once every 6 months), once every 6-7 years it is necessary to reline the prosthesis and install new artificial teeth. The fact is that artificial teeth made of plastic and ceramic composite tend to gradually wear out.
This happens mainly in the chewing areas, which leads to a gradual increase in the load on the front teeth, and as a result they can simply dislocate from the prosthesis. The patient saw his signature under the recommendations and the conflict was settled, and within a few days the prosthesis was as good as new. Therefore, patient reviews that you can sometimes read about are not always objective.

It's great that people have the opportunity to stop being embarrassed about their smile! Tell me, is inflammation in the maxillary sinuses the only contraindication to the procedure or are there any others?

I actually looked at a lot of reviews about basal implantation, from which I concluded that you can give yourself a beautiful smile in any hopeless situation. This just begs the question, what is the healing time after surgery? a week or two?

My mother suffered from periodontitis and by the age of 45 she only had a few teeth left in her upper jaw. When searching for treatment options, we often came across reviews about basal implantation. We decided to have an operation. Now my mother is very happy because she can smile without embarrassment.

Only after reading this article did I learn about what basal implantation is and how quickly and efficiently it can replace lost teeth. Judging by the photos from patient reviews, their teeth began to look better than they probably did in their youth. and this procedure does not take much time.

Comprehensive article! I didn’t know that this operation uses 3D graphics and printing. I read reviews about basal implantation, see the results, and get inspired to go to the doctor. Four teeth on the upper jaw were completely crumbled. Can you tell me approximately how much it might cost me to replace them?

Finally, I found normal reviews about basal implantation! I would like to ask: are there cases when implants do not “take root” in the bone tissue and how common are they?

I read these reviews about basal implantation with interest, since the problem is pressing. I think that my sister will agree to this procedure, even though she is a big coward and her health is not good. Are there any absolute health contraindications for such operations?

I read reviews about basal implantation, and in principle I believe everything. But I’m worried about one question: where can we perform such an operation, only a high-quality one? As I understand it, there are problems with this in the regions.

It happened to my brother that his little daughter hit her head hard on his teeth while they were playing. She knocked out his teeth and inserted some implants. Now he is generally afraid to play with his daughter and even eat very solid food. I read reviews about basal implantation and I want to ask: will it be painful or somehow uncomfortable to eat solid food with the kind of implants that are installed in your clinic?

Is it possible to have prosthetics done in the summer or is it better to wait until the cooler season? I'm afraid that it will take longer to heal and there will be side effects from the heat. Or is it not related to the weather?
Inna (06.27.2018 at 14:19) Reply to comment
Of course it’s a sight to behold, I mean the pins, but in general it’s great that teeth can be restored so easily, although the price is high. Do these pins really take root right away, will there be no rejection?
Anna (06.27.2018 at 14:25) Reply to comment
This, of course, is a wonderful solution for those who are missing at least several teeth in a row, and if only two are missing, and then in different places, in this case, is it possible to use basal implantation or is it better to stick with a banal pin?
Olga (07/09/2018 at 09:58) Reply to comment
My question is: as I understand it, pins are inserted into the bone tissue and prostheses are already put on them, but what should you do at the airport, for example, when going through a metal detector? Or, let's say, will I need to do an MRI?

In terms of money, it turned out to be not as expensive as I thought; I was interested in this operation because I have specific problems with my teeth. My question is: how strong are these implants and will I be able to fully engage in boxing after the operation?
Alexey (07/10/2018 at 09:23) Reply to comment
Honestly, I put off going to the dentist for so long. But I have a bridge and it started to sway, I couldn’t even eat properly. I went to a regular clinic, took a picture, and there they shocked me that everything was bad and my teeth couldn’t be saved. I ask: what should I do? They told me that implantation would take place, but not in our clinic. Look for a good paid clinic. Yes, we need to solve everything quickly, otherwise the entire load will go to the opposite side, which is not good. My friends recommended the IBI clinic with their basal implantation. They performed implantation on me, it’s strange, but it seemed to me that it was more painful to treat teeth than to install implants. I didn't feel anything. They did everything very well for me, now I’m already used to my new teeth. I'm very pleased with the result.

So far I have not come across an advertisement for a basal implantation clinic. Those. Not everyone does it. How to avoid running into unqualified specialists. Can anyone recommend a specific doctor in Moscow? The technique is very interesting, maybe I’ll decide to install such implants instead of my removable denture.

Marina, yes, it was Stefan Ide who received me. I made an appointment with him specifically. I was very impressed with the doctor! If you want to go there, be sure to find out so you can get to him. There are a lot of good specialists there, but he won me over.

Marina, I’ll support Ulyana, it’s a very good clinic. They helped me with my long-standing problem + corrected the mistakes that were screwed up for me at another clinic. At least now I can chew and smile normally.

I am glad that our medicine has reached the point where you can regain a beautiful smile and shine (not only in your eyes) in several operations (or even one). The only question is the cost of such happiness. Do you have approximate prices for this service?

I read stories and understand how important teeth are in our lives, of course we need to take care of them from a young age, but nature is not always for us, so I’m glad that there is implantation, but I’m just tormented by doubts whether they will really feel like family&

Stories of real people give an understanding of how important a beautiful, healthy smile is in our lives, but what if the implants do not take root? Is there any guarantee or insurance for this case?

Thank you for your responsiveness! I only recently learned about the Institute of Basal Implantation with their technique, so I’m collecting people’s opinions so that I know what to mentally prepare for.

Always prepare yourself for the best! Well, go for a consultation to know for sure.

If you decide to undergo basal implantation, then it is best to have it done at the Institute of Basal Implantation, for the simple reason that the author of the technique, Professor Stefan Ide, performs the operation here. This is a guarantee that the implants will be installed correctly. It didn’t even bother me that I lived in another region, and that I had to go to Moscow, but I didn’t know my way around the capital at all. The center provides transfers for non-residents, so there is no need to wander around the capital. And the implantation itself gives results within a few days, and you return home with new teeth. Now I’m only returning to the clinic for follow-up examinations.

Frequently asked questions about basal implantation –
Above we talked about patient reviews of basal dental implantation, and now we will focus on the most common questions that patients ask.
Timing of prosthetics and diet –
A temporary fixed denture will be fixed on the basal implants already 2-3 days after prosthetics. If we are talking about the option when the patient is immediately fitted with a permanent fixed denture, this option requires more complex manufacturing, and therefore is fixed on the implants only 3-4 days after the operation. Immediately after fixing the denture, you can start chewing with it, but only soft food. Let’s say: you won’t be able to immediately pick up and bite into an apple.
Is it always possible to do without bone grafting?
The basal implantation technique in more than 90% of cases avoids bone grafting, as well as sinus lifting (this is a variant of bone grafting when there is insufficient bone volume in the lateral parts of the upper jaw). Bone grafting may be needed mainly only in cases where patients themselves request it for aesthetic reasons in order to reduce the height of the artificial gum in a fixed denture.
The choice between cement and screw fixation of the prosthesis –
Cement fixation has only 2 advantages. Firstly, it requires less experience and knowledge from doctors, and also makes the production of a prosthesis simpler and less expensive. Secondly – because a fixed denture is fixed on cement, the latter (due to the presence of a certain elasticity coefficient) allows to somewhat compensate for the excessive chewing load.
Disadvantages of cement fixation –
- there may be a violation of the integrity of the cement, the appearance of cracks in it, which will lead to bacterial colonization (this can cause peri-implantitis, the appearance of odor from under the crowns),
- in the process of fixing a fixed denture with cement, the latter can get under the gum (it is not always possible to remove it, and this leads to the development of peri-implantitis),
- It will be impossible to remove the prosthesis from the implants without damaging it (this creates gigantic problems in terms of regular maintenance of the prosthesis).
Advantages of screw fixation - screw fixation using Multi-unit abutments implies a tight connection of the prosthesis to the implants without gaps or cracks, which guarantees the absence of bacterial colonization and reduces the risk of developing peri-implantitis. And most importantly, this makes it possible to easily remove the prosthesis from the implants without damaging it, and just as easily put it in place. The ability to remove the denture is very important for periodic professional cleaning of the denture, as well as when it is necessary to reline acrylic or ceramic composite dentures.
What kind of dental prosthesis care will be needed?
The most vulnerable area of any fixed dentures on implants is their lower surface, which is adjacent to the gum. This is where food debris and bacteria accumulate, and if you don’t take good care of your dentures, tartar can accumulate. You will need to regularly use an oral irrigator (for rinsing) every day, and also use special superfloss to clean the underside of the denture.
However, the denture will require periodic professional cleaning at the dental clinic. This is usually necessary once every 6 months (in patients with poor hygiene - once every 3 months). Of course, such processing can be carried out efficiently only if we have the opportunity to remove the prosthesis from the implants and clean and polish it outside the oral cavity. After which the denture is again fixed to the implants using screws.
In addition, if your denture is made of acrylic or ceramic composite, then these materials tend to gradually wear out. Therefore, once every 7 years or so, we will need to remove the denture and replace worn-out artificial teeth with new ones (and, if necessary, reline the pink artificial gum with plastic).
How difficult is it for a patient to install basal implants?
When we install classic implants, during the operation the implant surgeon is usually forced to make wide incisions, as well as completely or partially detach the gum from the bone. After this, a bone bed is drilled into the bone for each implant, and after screwing in all the implants, sutures are applied. In turn, basal implants are almost always installed without gum detachment (only through a “puncture”) and, accordingly, this does not require sutures.
Transgingival installation of implants (without gum detachment) –
Therefore, basal implantation is often called the terms transgingival implantation, bloodless implantation or sutureless implantation. The severity of the operation is also reduced by the fact that approximately 60% less bone volume is drilled under the basal implants when preparing the bone bed (than when installing classic implants using the All-on-4 technique). Thanks to all this, this type of implantation is well tolerated even by elderly patients.
Got a new smile in 3 days after completely edentulous both jaws, and age was not a hindrance
Valentina Aleksandrovna is 64 years old, but despite her age, she leads an active lifestyle, spends time not only with her grandchildren, but also still gives lectures at the university for her beloved students. She said that the Internet is not some kind of innovation for her, she mastered it a long time ago and quickly, and is aware of the latest events. As for losing teeth, I wore removable dentures for a long time, but I already dreamed of getting rid of them as soon as possible, since I felt very insecure with them. As the patient says, she came across a forum about basal implantation, and did not do anything else until she read all the reviews. She doesn’t hide the fact that it was her favorite “Malakhov Plus”. Here's what she had to say about her story:
“After all these reviews on the forum, I was inspired by the idea of getting basal implants. I learned, especially, that long-term wearing of removable dentures and complete absence of teeth are not a problem for this method of treatment. I live in Moscow, so I came to the clinic with a specific request: I am a teacher, and, despite my age, I need to quickly get all my teeth done. The doctors' main question was about examining my body; they asked me to visit a cardiologist. Moreover, I was counting on general anesthesia, because I was told that 10-12 implants needed to be placed on each jaw, the bone from the removable dentures had sagged a lot. The consequences were also frightening. In one clinic they said that I was too old, I might not be able to stand it, to put it bluntly, they got off without any difficulties. But in another dentistry I found what I was looking for: they had an agreement with the service of cardiologists and resuscitators, the technology was borderline fantastic, the doctors gathered a consultation, and... they didn’t give up on me, but helped me a lot!
As a result, I was examined, they prepared me, all my body indicators were monitored during the process, they say that two hours have passed. And the result shocked me so much that it’s hard to say. It's like I've gotten younger. True, only a month later it became visible, when the swelling went down, and there was practically no pain at all. My teeth are beautiful and straight, and I am beautiful. I'm happy and the doctors are just great. For all the pleasure, by the way, I paid 480 thousand rubles, and it was a turnkey job, without additional payments. Plus they gave us a lifetime guarantee on everything.”
Basal implantation on all teeth, before and after photos
The patient was refused in one clinic due to her advanced age, but if doctors really carry out basal dental implantation, then this should not scare them at all. Yes, it is a huge responsibility to carry out the procedure in conditions of bone atrophy, and even under anesthesia (for this, the clinic must have a safety net, an intensive care unit on duty, and a ventilator). However, neither age-related characteristics, nor compensated diabetes mellitus, nor osteomyelitis, nor long-term wearing of removable dentures are a contraindication to the procedure. A contraindication to the procedure is incompetence and ignorance of the technique on the part of the doctor.
As for pain, even with interventions such as implantation of both jaws, healing will take place very quickly. After all, before the procedure itself, the doctor carefully studies or “plays out” it in advance using three-dimensional computer modeling. To do this, the patient’s computed tomography or MSCT data is loaded into a special program, where the specialist sees all the nuances, selects basal implants, literally calculates their position in the bone down to the millimeter, and prints out surgical templates. It is these templates that allow patients to easily undergo the procedure, and doctors to avoid mistakes and omissions. The doctor screws the implant through the holes in them, which eliminates injury to neighboring tissues and the risk of infection.
Having listened to such touching reviews from patients about basal implantation, which literally changed their lives for the better in a matter of days, we could not ignore the reviews of doctors. After all, it is very important what the specialists themselves think about the procedure. In Moscow, we found quite a few clinics where basal implantation is performed. But which of them can you trust? The question is, of course, complex.
Implantation on basal implants for large bone loss
For a comment, we turned to one of the clinics (we will not name the name so that it does not look like advertising), whose specialists have been working not only with basal implantation for 10 years now, but also with many other protocols that allow you to restore teeth in 2-3 days . “Naturally, all implantation methods today have certain advantages and disadvantages. As for the basal complex, it is, in principle, difficult for other protocols to compete with it, especially when it comes to complete adentia and inflammatory processes in periodontal tissues. However, it is very important to choose a doctor who has the necessary knowledge in this area and can confirm it with successful work experience, certification, and patient reviews. It is also important for the patient to show responsibility and follow the doctor’s recommendations, and then there will be no need to worry about a successful result,” the clinic explained.
Watch a video on basal implantation
It’s wonderful when patients not only talk about their miraculous healing on forums, but also agree to talk about treatment with editorial representatives. Then we have a unique opportunity to feel their story, find a response in our hearts, and discover similar problems. We hope that everyone, after reading this material, will be able to draw conclusions and take note of what problems dental implantation can solve today.

implantation
- Iordanishvili A.K., Veretenko E.A., Serikov A.A., Lobeiko V.V., Balin D.V. Complete loss of teeth in an adult: age-specific prevalence, need for treatment and clinical picture, 2015.
Summary:
For the following groups of patients, basal implantation will be one of the most preferred techniques...
- if you smoke,
- there is a lack of bone volume at the implantation site (and you do not want to undergo bone grafting and especially sinus lift surgery),
- elderly age,
- for women during menopause,
- for osteoporosis,
- if you have hypertension,
- compensated diabetes mellitus.
We have identified patients in a special group who, due to various diseases of the nose, mouth and throat, will have an increased number of pathogenic bacteria in the oral cavity, which sharply increases the risk of inflammation around the installed implants and their rejection. For these groups of patients, the basal implantation technique is also more suitable -
- for chronic gum inflammation,
- for chronic tonsillitis,
- with irregular oral hygiene,
- dryness of the oral mucosa,
- mouth breathing (chronic nasal congestion).
Basal implantation in Moscow: clinics
It must be said that basal implants are produced in the world by only a few manufacturers. One of them is (Switzerland), which produces the “Roott” line of implants. In addition, there is an implant whose implants are also known under the brand “Oneway Biomed”. In Moscow, only a small number of clinics install basal-type implants, for example:
- Moscow,
- Smile-at-Once Clinic.
The minimum cost for implantation of 1 toothless jaw with 8-12 basal implants ROOTT (including a fixed adaptive prosthesis) will be from 265,000 rubles, and the same with the use of Oneway Biomed implants – from 285,000 rubles. We hope that our article was informative for you!
