Basal dental implantation price in Moscow

Patients who have an idea about traditional implantation often wonder what basal implantation is and what is its feature. Basal implantation is considered a type of technology for the use of implants, which is practiced when patients have a lack of bone tissue. In this case, the emphasis shifts to the deep (basal) bone layers, which are not subject to atrophic processes.

To understand the peculiarities of using basal implantation, which is called single-phase, let’s first try to consider in a simplified form the issue of the anatomical structure of the bone tissue of the jaws. The roots of the teeth are fixed in the bone tissue, but if a person loses them, then the bones are at risk of deformation and atrophy due to weakening or complete lack of load. The fact is that the entire chewing process activates the metabolism in bone tissue, and in the absence of teeth, their activity stops, and the bone, deprived of the load, becomes deformed and noticeably decreases in volume.

Spongy layer

- a relatively porous and more susceptible to atrophy section of bone tissue, where implants are usually implanted using the traditional technique;

Cortical layer

- more dense, consisting of mineral salts;

Basal layer

- the most deeply located, containing many strong partitions and practically not deformed in the absence of teeth.

Taking into account the strength of the structure of the basal layer, root-shaped basal implants are fixed in it, opening up the prospect of restoring new teeth without building up bone tissue. In addition, unlike traditional implantation, basal dental implantation does not require a long waiting period for prosthetics. Accelerated basal implantation technique, often called “single-stage implantation”

, allows you to start prosthetics 3-5 days after the end of the implant procedure. With the traditional form of implantation, the distance from implantation to prosthetics reaches 3-6 months.

What is basal implantation?

Let's try to give an analogy to make it clear what basal implantation is. If you place a stick in the ground using only the top loose layer, it will not hold well. But if you use deeper layers that are not washed out by water or exposed to other external influences, the stick can be secured much more firmly and will last longer. The same goes for basal dental implantation.

Basal complex is a type of implantation in one stage with immediate loading. The main difference between the basal implantation method and other protocols is that the installation of implants does not require the presence of alveolar cancellous bone, the most central part of the jaw bone tissue. It is used to install most classical implants. Basal implants work with fundamentally different sections: the cortical plate, basal bone, buttresses of the skull, nasal, zygomatic and sphenoid bone. To ensure that the bone and implant have a large contact surface, artificial roots are installed at a certain angle. Angling also helps to select the most suitable areas of bone and place implants bypassing the sinuses and nerve endings.

Unlike classic implants with a rough surface, basal implants are smooth and have a special antimicrobial coating. According to many studies, it is the absence of a rough surface in combination with the use of deep bone sections for implant installation that is an excellent prevention of peri-implantitis and, as a result, minimizes the risk of rejection in the long term. This is especially true in the presence of inflammatory processes in the oral cavity and periodontal tissues in particular.

The method is ideal for patients with complete edentia and is not suitable if only one tooth needs to be restored. The minimum is three missing teeth.

Basal method of dental implantation - indications and contraindications

The main restrictions on refusing basal implantation are the absence of 1–2 teeth, as well as general contraindications to any other surgical intervention. At the same time, Basal complex allows you to solve problems that classical implantation cannot solve.

Indications for basal implantation are complete or multiple absence of teeth, which is accompanied by the following problems and needs:

• advanced forms of periodontitis and other dental diseases, when the only way out is their removal, for example, with a high degree of mobility or loss, in the presence of strong cystic formations on the roots;
• acute and chronic forms of gum disease, accompanied by severe recession of the gingival contour and exposure of the roots;
• inflammation and acute atrophy of spongy bone tissue;
• desire to change dentures to implants;
• the need to speed up treatment;
• reluctance or inability to grow bone;
• advanced age of the patient;
• restoration of teeth in experienced smokers.

Features of the Basal complex

• No bone grafting is required.
• Basal implantation and tooth extraction are easily combined and are carried out in just one approach.
• Before the operation, a thorough 3D diagnosis is carried out, as well as three-dimensional modeling of the treatment process.
• At the surgical stage, templates are used to facilitate the process of implantation and allow their installation to be carried out as accurately as possible. During the implantation process, all manipulations are also monitored using 3D X-ray diagnostic technologies.
• Prosthetics take place within 3 days to ensure chewing load on the bone. Dentures can be fixed to implants using either cement or screws.
• When using zygomatic implants, they are fixed at an angle, bypassing the maxillary sinuses.
• For basal implantation, solid one-piece or one-component implants are used in an amount of at least 8 pieces.

Why does the installation of basal implants take place without bone grafting?

Classic two-stage dental implantation is only possible if there is a sufficient amount of cancellous bone tissue. If there is a deficiency, bone augmentation is required before surgery. The basal method does not require this. Everything is explained simply:

1. Other layers of bone are used, the density and hardness of which does not change due to the absence of teeth, since their chemical structure is different from the alveolar (spongy) layer.
2. For the basal method, solid implants are used. They are often longer and thinner than the classic two-piece. This allows implants to be installed into the bone tissue at an angle with penetration into the deep layers.
3. Basal implants are installed according to the principle of compression of bone tissue around its axis when screwed. That is, during implantation, the bone is not lost, but is compacted around the artificial roots. In this way, excellent primary stabilization is achieved with a force of up to 100 Newtons (for comparison: with the classical approach - no more than 30 - 40 Newtons). This approach has been used for more than 50 years for fractures and joint injuries. The principle of operation is also known by the name of the scientist-inventor G.A. Ilizarov.
4. After fixing the implants in the bone, metabolic processes are immediately activated. The solution to this problem is taken over by the prosthesis. The patient chews food, improving blood supply to bone tissue. The cells are revived, replacing old and damaged ones, filling the space and increasing bone density around the artificial roots. Osseointegration occurs faster.
5. The prosthesis has another important task - to fasten, connect or splint the implants with its frame, thus eliminating the risk of their mobility and displacement of the structure. The metal base connecting the implants to the prosthesis does not change its position even under heavy loads.

New or old technology?

The development of implantation since the 60s of the 20th century has been based on two different technologies. The founder of modern dental implantology, Swedish doctor Per-Ingvar Brånemark, came up with root-shaped implants that were implanted in two stages. The phenomenon of osseointegration, discovered by scientists from Sweden, proved that a titanium rod implanted into bone tissue was able to completely fuse with the bone, becoming motionless, strong, and stable.

American professor Leonard Linkov invented implantation systems similar to blades or thin plates (blades). To implant them, it was necessary to cut out a bed in the basal tissue of the bone, where a plate with a pin was placed. A crown was then placed on it, and the implant itself was integrated into the bones, overgrown with connective tissue.

At that time, basal dental implantation became an ideal option for those patients for whom root-shaped implants were contraindicated due to insufficient bone tissue for their implantation.

Later, basal technology was improved in 1982 by the French scientist Jean-Marc Julier. The scientist proposed an implant in the form of an inverted letter T with a longer root part than that of classical products. It was not installed in the spongy porous tissue of the jaw bone, where the roots of the teeth are located, as with traditional implantation, but in deeper layers - the basal ones.

At his instigation, the method of implanting implantation systems for bone tissue atrophy, if the patient has insufficient volume, began to be actively introduced in dental clinics in Europe. The basal bone is not subject to atrophy and has fewer capillaries. Such characteristics made it possible to carry out dental implantation even with a significant lack of the upper layer of the jaw bone.

However, by the beginning of the 90s, European dental associations agreed that the effectiveness of basal implantation was low. In practice, it turned out that implants implanted in this way served much less than root-shaped ones and could not withstand the chewing load.

However, the collapse of the Iron Curtain between Russia and Europe in the 90s opened the way for ineffective basal implantation in dental clinics in Russia and the CIS countries.

Pros and cons of basal implantation

1. Time frame – prosthetics using this method will not take the patient much time. According to the protocol, implants should be “loaded” on day 3. Maximum taking into account the need to prepare for the operation, with all possible corrections of the prosthesis to suit the patient’s bite, compliance with the requirements for aesthetics and beauty of the smile, the entire treatment will take no more than 7 days.
2. Appearance - the artificial gum is made of translucent acrylic, there is very little of it. When smiling and talking, no one will notice the border of the prosthesis. And the base will brilliantly cope with its task - it will protect the gums from injury in case of inflammation and hide existing cosmetic defects of the mucous membrane, if any.
3. Rejuvenation is a pleasant “side” effect of prosthetics. Wrinkles around the mouth will be smoothed out due to the normalization of the functioning of the facial muscles.
4. Pleasure from food - you can eat everything! Chewing food is welcome - it speeds up the process of bone tissue regeneration.
5. Teeth can be restored even with a large deficiency of bone tissue.
6. Contraindications - minimum. Even smoking, inflammation of bone tissue, periodontitis, and periodontal disease are not an obstacle to surgery. Implants work with deep parts of the bone, which are sterile and inflammation does not reach them.
7. The implants are securely fixed - the fixation force is 2 - 3 times higher than that of classic models.
8. Rehabilitation is very fast. Thanks to minimal trauma and the use of bio-membranes, which are created from the patient’s own blood plasma, tissues are quickly restored. There is only mild pain, comparable to the discomfort after tooth extraction. It goes away in 3 – 7 days. On an individual basis, the doctor prescribes antibacterial and painkillers that will reduce pain to “no”.
9. The risk of implant rejection is minimal. Fixation in sterile parts of the bone tissue and preservation of the gums eliminate inflammation. An individually developed 3D plan for installing implants for each patient and the same control throughout the operation to install implants does not allow errors.
10. The prosthesis is easy to care for.
11. The prices are incredible. Basal implantation will cost less than classic two-stage implantation.

The main disadvantage of basal implantation is that Russia currently lacks qualified specialists. While implantation using the Basal complex method requires experience and knowledge. In one person, the doctor must be a surgeon with excellent knowledge of the anatomical structure of the maxillofacial system, an experienced orthopedist, an implantologist himself, as well as a competent user of software for modeling treatment results in 3D.

Advantages of the technique

• Basal implantation can be used with virtually no restrictions; basal implants, due to their specific shape, can be inserted into areas of the bone where it is impossible to install traditional screw implants.
• The need for bone augmentation and transplantation, accompanied by serious surgical interventions, is eliminated.
• One-stage dental implantation allows you to immediately implant a basal implant after tooth extraction and immediately load the prosthesis 3-4 days after the procedure.
• The low degree of trauma and accelerated healing time contribute to the inclusion of this procedure in the category of bloodless operations. Due to their bloodlessness and low morbidity, basal implants can be implanted in patients with HIV, hepatitis, and diabetes.

Computer-aided treatment planning

It is impossible to prepare for basal implantation without 3D technologies. Bone tissue will not grow, so it is important to carefully and accurately plan treatment. The computer helps you select a model, calculate the angle of inclination of the implant, and choose the ideal location for it.

Computed tomography is also strictly required. From the images you can evaluate the quantity, quality and characteristics of bone tissue. Implants should not touch the sinuses or nerves. The examination results are processed through a computer, and by the time treatment begins, the doctor is very clear about the next steps. A detailed plan for the placement of implants and the developed parameters of the prosthesis helps you not to go astray.

In addition to computer technology, when creating individual orthopedic structures, special devices are used to measure the characteristics of the patient’s bite and occlusion.

Before installing the implants, again using virtual modeling, an individual template is prepared from elastic material for each specific patient. It is fixed on the gums - this stencil allows you to install the implant perfectly and without displacement in accordance with the chosen location.

What prostheses are used?

A model of the prosthesis is created before treatment using a computer program; the design is subsequently improved and verified using impressions, which are taken after the installation of basal implants. The mucous membranes need time to recover, so immediately after fixing the implants, the prostheses are not attached. It is recommended to wait 1 – 2 days.

For the first six months to a year, as a rule, an adaptive prosthesis with a metal frame and plastic crowns is installed (if desired, it can be left for its entire service life - up to 3 - 5 years). When the implants take root (and this will take a maximum of a year), the temporary prosthesis must be replaced with a permanent one. Crowns can be made of zirconium or metal ceramics.

But there is another option, which modern technologies allow: in 75% of cases, you can immediately install not a temporary, but a permanent prosthesis made of polymer materials. No need for re-prosthetics. Such a modern prosthesis lasts at least 10 years and is subject to adjustment to the bite directly in the patient’s mouth. The structure can be secured using cement or screw fastening.

What can be used instead of Basal complex?

One alternative solution is to install conventional removable dentures. However, the service life of orthopedic structures fixed only on the gums is short-lived, they are inconvenient to use, and they also lead to bone tissue atrophy, which requires frequent relining. An alternative may be solutions such as implantation of All-on-4 or All-on-6 - on four or six implants, respectively. These protocols are also used in cases of complete absence of teeth and involve implantation with immediate loading. But unlike basal implantation, they have certain limitations in the volume and quality of the jaw bone and are not used in cases of pronounced atrophic processes.

What dentists say

The opinions of dentists regarding basal implantation are ambiguous. Some are categorically against this technique, others accuse opponents of basal implantation of conservatism and even a lack of professionalism.

The chief physician of the Center for Reconstructive Surgery and Implantation believes that basal implantation is nothing more than an attempt to deceive the biomechanics of chewing. Non-root-shaped basal implants with the thickness of a matchstick do not withstand chewing overload. This leads to resorption of the last boundaries of the bone and rejection of the implants. Naturally, the results of basal implants with immediate loading are in many ways inferior to classical technology.

Other implantologists (including doctors of medical sciences, professors, academic members of the Russian Academy of Sciences), based on their many years of experience in implantology, are categorical in their statements, openly saying that basal implantation is “pure deception.” They insist that this is not an innovative, but rather a medieval method, and in no case should it be a full replacement for classical implantation.

Dentists with foreign experience criticize basal jaw implantation even more: they harshly condemn the method of filing non-removable abutments. According to the chief physician of one of the specialized private clinics, they stick out like anti-tank hedgehogs right in the client’s oral cavity. The doctor is surprised: “What does it mean to saw high-strength titanium in the mouth? Try sawing off a piece of metal reinforcement using your head as a support. And you will feel the fullness of the upcoming sensations. In a word, the most perfect collective farm and primitivism compared to modern Brånemark systems, where the implant and the superstructure (abutment) are not one whole.”

However, dentists do not categorically deny basal implantation, giving it a place in critically extreme cases when it is impossible to carry out the classical protocol:

• for serious injuries and injuries to the jaw bones;
• in most cancers associated with the loss of a large mass of tissue;
• with severe inflammation, acute bone resorption, large loss of tissue of the jaw bones and the impossibility of their growth.

Although, as practice shows, with the development of modern technologies for bone tissue restoration, the need for basal implantation is finally becoming a thing of the past.

Doctors recommend low-traumatic methods as an alternative to basal implantation

What is better – classic or basal implantation?

Basal implantation is indicated for complete or almost complete absence of teeth. It is carried out both in case of bone tissue deficiency and in the presence of acute forms of periodontal tissue diseases. Classic implantation will not work in this case - the operation requires bone tissue augmentation. And this is extremely difficult, expensive and will take a lot of time. Therefore, in such situations, patients often hear a refusal and a recommendation to stay with removable dentures. We can safely say that today there is no full-fledged alternative to the basal implantation technique, especially in complex clinical cases.

Cost of treatment

The final price of basal implantation in Moscow depends on the complexity of the case, the manufacturer of the implants, as well as the materials of the selected denture. However, the patient always has a choice. Thus, the cost of basal implantation on the upper or lower jaw is 265 thousand rubles with an adaptive prosthesis, the service life of which is 3–5 years. With the installation of a permanent polymer ceramic-composite prosthesis, the installation of basal implants will cost 350 thousand rubles. With the fixation of a metal-ceramic prosthesis, the entire procedure will cost 450 thousand rubles.

Basal prosthetics for complete absence of teeth - price

Many clinics promote basal implantation as a cheaper method of dental prosthetics for completely edentulous patients. Indeed, even a superficial analysis of the prices for these two methods shows: the average price of one tooth restored using classical implantation in Moscow is about 40-45 thousand rubles, and when restoring the entire jaw using basal implantation, the price of one tooth is about 20 thousand.

The cost of prosthetics for the entire jaw will largely be determined by the implants chosen by the patient: if you choose budget models, it will be possible to keep within 200,000, and if you choose premium implants, the price for basal implantation in Moscow can be 500,000 rubles.

We urge our patients not to chase cheapness and approach the choice of prosthetics method with all seriousness. Despite the fact that we do not use basal implantation, we will select a method of prosthetics for any patient, taking into account his financial capabilities. In this case, the main selection criterion will be health safety!

Recommendations for choosing a clinic and implantologist

As mentioned above, basal implantation in the form in which it allows you to achieve high results is practiced today by very few specialists. In order not to run into a “fake” and not to become a victim of inexperienced doctors, but to get a guaranteed high result of the work done, I recommend paying attention to the following points.

The most important thing is that the doctor has a certificate issued by the International Implant Foundation. It is this association that has been actively studying and introducing into practice methods of one-stage implantation with immediate loading for many decades, including the basal complex. Currently, the foundation has introduced a five-step training that every specialist practicing these protocols must undergo. Naturally, the doctor must be accredited by the company that manufactures the basal implants.
