Basal Implants

Basal implants, also known as cortical or bicortical implants, are a type of dental implant that differs from traditional implants in their design, placement technique, and the bone they engage with. Here’s an overview of basal implants:

  1. Design and Construction:

    • Basal implants are typically made of titanium or titanium alloy, similar to traditional implants, but they have a unique design that includes a single-piece construction with an integral abutment.
    • The design of basal implants allows them to engage with both the cortical (outer) and cancellous (inner) bone layers of the jawbone, providing greater stability and immediate load-bearing capability.
  2. Placement Technique:

    • Unlike traditional implants, which are placed primarily in the cancellous bone, basal implants are anchored in the cortical bone layer of the jawbone.
    • The placement technique for basal implants involves drilling through the cortical bone and engaging with the denser basal bone, which provides superior biomechanical support.
    • Basal implants are often placed at an angle to maximize bone engagement and stability, allowing for immediate loading in many cases.
  3. Indications:

    • Basal implants are suitable for patients who have insufficient bone volume in the traditional implant placement sites or who have experienced bone loss in the jawbone.
    • They can be used in cases of severe bone resorption, poor bone quality, or when traditional implant placement is not feasible due to anatomical limitations.
  4. Advantages:

    • Immediate Load-Bearing: Basal implants can often support immediate loading of prosthetic restorations, allowing for quicker treatment and restoration of oral function.
    • High Success Rate: Basal implants have demonstrated high success rates, even in challenging clinical situations, due to their strong anchorage in the basal bone.
    • Reduced Need for Bone Grafting: Because basal implants engage with the basal bone, they may eliminate the need for bone grafting procedures in patients with inadequate bone volume.
    • Minimally Invasive: The placement technique for basal implants is minimally invasive, resulting in faster healing times and reduced postoperative discomfort for patients.
  5. Considerations:

    • Basal implants require careful treatment planning and surgical expertise, as they involve precise placement in the cortical bone layer.
    • Patients with certain medical conditions or anatomical considerations may not be suitable candidates for basal implant placement, and alternative treatment options may need to be considered.
  6. Cost:

    • The cost of basal implants may vary depending on factors such as the number of implants needed, any additional procedures required, and the type of prosthetic restoration chosen.
    • While basal implants may have a higher initial cost compared to traditional implants, they can offer significant long-term benefits and may be a cost-effective solution in certain cases.

Overall, basal implants provide a viable alternative for patients with compromised bone quality or quantity, offering stable and durable support for prosthetic restorations and restoring oral function and aesthetics. However, proper patient selection and thorough treatment planning are essential to ensure successful outcomes with basal implant therapy.

Usually a normal tooth has two parts.

1. Crown portion is the part above the gums

2. Root which is like a pillar inside the bone that holds the crown portion

When a person looses a tooth, both portions are lost. To replace that lost tooth, first we re-insert artificial root portion that is nothing but a dental implant which is a titanium screw. After root we inserted, tooth portion will be made on top of it (Fake tooth)

So, basically, “A Dental implant (Artificial tooth root) is a small titanium screw inserted into the jaw bone which acts as a natural tooth root. They provide a strong foundation for fixed permanent tooth on top of it or support a fixed teeth bridge or prosthesis”.

It has 3 portions:

1.Implant screw – titanium screw drilled into the jaw

2.Abutment – it connects the implant to cap (artificial tooth)

3.Cap – artificial tooth portion

When you have missing tooth/teeth, you have 2 options. One is implant restoration and other one is a dental bridge. Many patients doesn’t know about the differences of it so that choice making will be easy for them.

BridgeImplant
Need to grind adjacent teethNo grinding of adjacent teeth
Food lodgment can happen below the bridgeNo food lodgment below the implant
Foul odour may occur over yearsNo foul smell any time
Need to change over short periodNo need to change for long period
Strength of adjacent teeth isreduced/compromisedover a periodStrength of adjacent teeth do not affect byimplant
Not as strong as natural teethStronger than natural teeth
Good estheticsExcellent esthetics
Takes support from adjacent teethTake support from its own titanium root

Following are the difference in regular implants versus basal implants:

 Basal implants/ cortical implantsConventional Implants
Success rate98%95 %
Waiting period for teethImmediate teeth & No waiting periodNeed to wait for 4-6 months for implant bonding
Gum openingNo cuts/ no gums opening(Most of cases)Gum opening required
stitchesSuture less procedure(Most of cases unless cases of teeth removalGums need to be closed post surgery after gums opening done
Patient eligibilityAlmost every patient can undergoContra indicated in medically compromised patients(Not suitable for severe diabetes , chronic smokers etc)
Supporting boneThey were placed in basal bone(Highly dense, mineralised bone, less prone to boneresorption and infections)They were placed in crestal bone(bone of less quality and more prone for resorption and infections)
Additional surgical procedures (Sinus lift,Bone grafting /augmentation etc)No need of any additional surgical proceduresIf sufficient alveolar bone not there, it requiresadditional aggressive surgical procedures
Implant sizesWide range of sizes available to suit various case scenariosLimited size available
Implant designSingle piece implants (Mostly)Two piece implants joined by a small screw.
Additional componentsNo additional componentsRequire other components like abutment, implant analog,impression post, Healing cap, cover screw , multi unit components etc…
Prosthesis ( teeth set)Cement retained prosthesis andNo loosening of prosthesisMostly Screw retained prosthesis and prosthetic loosening chancesare there
Prosthesis removal /retrievalDifficult and time consuming but possibleEasy prosthesis retrieval
Manufacturing CompaniesVery less and all basal implants(mostly) are from Swiss madeMany different manufacturing companies across the globe and their componentsare company specific.. And one company cannot fit to other system.(Should look for availability of same in particular country in future need if required)
CostCost effectiveCost effective to expensive Various ranges depends on brands

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Dental Implant Studio and I couldn't be happier with the experience. After enduring years of unpleasant encounters at other clinics, i was hesitant, but from the moment i walked in, i was impressed with how welcoming and attentive the staff was. Dr. Sudhakar Reddy was not only skilled but also took the time to explain each step of the process, alleviating any concerns i had. The treatment itself was top notch and the results exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend anyone seeking exceptional dental care.

He is the top-notch dentist for dental implant services. I consulted him for my dad's permanent teeth implant. Despite my dad's thin dental bone, the doctor was confident in performing the implant. The procedure was intricate, but the results were almost flawless. It's been six months since the implant, and there have been no issues so far. The doctor is exceptionally friendly and supportive. Many thanks to him for treating my dad well and improving his quality of life.

I am settled in the United States of America. I have been getting my dental implants done in India by Dr. Sudhakar Reddy since 2017 when he was a visiting surgeon at other dental clinics. Recently (in 2021), I discovered that Dr. Reddy has his own clinic in Bengaluru. I got three implants in my upper jaw at Dr. Sudhakar Reddy's Dental Implant Studio. I have not felt the need to see any other dental surgeon in India since then. He did a perfect job of placing the implants. Dr. Reddy has also done crowns for my new implants just a few weeks ago. The healing was fast. I felt no pain or discomfort during the procedure. Dr. Reddy is consistently improving his skill level and keeps up-to-date on latest developments in dental science and technology. He always uses the best in class products (including implants). Above all Dr. Reddy is a very friendly and compassionate person. That by itself is an exceptional quality of the physician in this money driven World. I recommend all my family and friends to see Dr. Reddy for all their dental treatment needs. Great job Dr. Sudhakar!

I'm writing this review after 3 years of my implant being done by Dr. Sudhakar Reddy. It was during lockdown and he first of all followed all protocols and maintained top level hygiene. I got the treatment completed in 3-4 seating and visited doctor twice after that for regular check-ups. The reason to write this review after 3 years is I feel thankful to him many times for the way he has treated me, very professionally done and god's grace have not had any issues since then. Thank you Dr. Sudhakar for treating me and so many others, making us healthy and putting a smile on our faces.

I highly recommend it to everyone. Professional service, professional approach to the patient and heart put into each tooth. I have traveled all the way from UK to India for my treatment and every mile was worth it. I have done 3 implants and zirkonium crowns. The result is better than I was expected

I have been to many dentists in Australia, but none as caring as calm as gentle as Dr Sudhakar Reddy. He has made my experience of dental implants from a night mare to the most calming, soothing voice that was constantly asking me if i was okay when the surgery was taking place. He had made all my fears go away. He is very thorough with his explanation, with the highest quality of equipment used, especially the state of the art digital measurements, which has made my experience such a pleasure. I would highly recommend Dr Reddy to anyone who needs dental implants 👍👍👍

I simply can't say how impressed and thankful I am to Dr. Sudhakar Sir. What a great experience!. My mother had major dental problems, and she was suffering for long time. But after long search, We contacted dental implant studio. The moment we stepped in, to the moment I got my mother cured, the environment there was extremely friendly and they are very efficient. Before going there we had no idea about the procedure and the cost, but the docter was very helpful and made it much affordable for us. Highly recommend!

Dental Implant Studio, Jayanagar I visited this clinic seeing the best Google reviews about it. I'm glad to say I too had a pleasant experience. I was apprehensive about dental treatment but Dr.Reddy explained me very well, made me comfortable before the procedure & treated me very well. Even the post opp care, follow up & concern is very good. I got my molar implant done. It healed very well, very less pain. I personally recommend it for your dental care. The clinic is very neat, clean & hygienic as post post COVID that is a major concern. All the necessary precautions are taken & everyone wears there dental gear.
