  • I completely agree with you. Great post

  • Dental Implant can give your confident smile back.

  • i'd like to know what Dr. Kammer specifically prescribes for pain post-op?

  • @EvanQuinn07 something mild like vicodin. Pain isn't often much of a problem.

  • hey peaople who need an implant... watch this video /user/dentallorenzana#p/f

  • We were told that we should wait till the age of 19 for males before placing implants how has the patient been doing?

  • @nsx11 patient in the video doing fine and it has been over 4 years!

  • See our video!!

  • I have the SAME EXACT "condition" he does, congenitally missing both upper lateral incisors and I have a partial denture like he does. I'm getting the 2 implant screws placed tomorrow, and then the crowns attached 6 months later.

  • I wasn't sure about my procedure but I got some good info on plasticsurgerymadeeasy (.) com

  • i wish this procedure was affordable i'm sitting here without 4 front teeth.(i wear a partial plate but it gives me a headache because i have such an overbite

  • what specifically does the dr prescibe post dental implant for pain?

  • I am missing my lower 1st and 2nd moler on both sides can mini implants work for me if so are as strong as my own teeth? How long do they last and what would be the costs now and for any maintnence if any?

    Thanks.

  • @cris15ization yes mini implants can work however an exam would be required to make sure that you are a good candidate and have enough healthy bone. Implant may run $950-1450 per tooth and crown (cap) that goes over it runs another $1400

  • hmzwenn jemand sich um mich kümmern würde wäre ich glücklich^^ bin so einsam

  • I ahve the same exact problem as this kid. I am going in today to get this procedure done.

  • I just had this done but i didn't get my teeth put in today. It took 3 hours, and there was tons of blood. No kidding.. This looks so painless and easy, but in my experience it was a nightmare., Espeically because my injections were wearing off so i could feel everything.. lovely.

  • @mjj1434 I'm still in the process of getting them done. It'll be two years in September since I started treatment. One of the implants I had placed when I previously commented failed and caused a major infection. It was my upper lateral tooth which was annoying. 6 months later I've just had it done again however it's an uncovered cap this time. Fingers crossed it's healing ok and if things go well I will have my four implants in around July time. It's such a long drawn out process and painful.

  • @Chocsii - thanks for the information. I am getting a third opinion - the past 2 dentists I have seen have each said it is a different tooth that needs root canal or reverse root canal. Am seeing 3rd dentist - endodontist on Mon.. Am worried after reading about your experiece - I hope I can keep my original tooth. Oh, what do you do to prevent the infection after an implant, and do you have to watch what you eat after they are implanted with a crown? Thanks for any info you can give me.

  • @mjj1434 Sorry to make you worry, implants are usually successful in a large amount of patients. To prevent an infection you need to make sure you rinse with warm salt water after every meal and before bed and keep the implant site clean. I got an infection simply because my body rejected the implant and it formed underneath the gum. Although implants are sturdy and much like a real tooth you should avoid any foods that create too much pressure. I,e Toffee, biting into apples etc. :)

  • can you get the 4 upper front teeth done with mini dental implants and crowns ,and how long do they last for, thanks

  • @charlie69ist Yes you can do this. It could last a life time but a more conservative estimate would at least many many years!

  • can you get mini implants and crowns for the 4 upper front teeth and how long do they last for thanks.

  • I just had this done today where I live. A few things were different with my procedure. He did not use that "guiding" thing - he just gauged himself where to start drilling (I only had one missing) and then checked halfway through to see where he was (since my space is so narrow) and then continued to the end.

    Also, I WAS still told I had to wait 3 months or so before finishing the process. Maybe just being extra-cautious, but the crowns have been placed immediately on all these vids. Weird.

  • @MissTJade so what did you use during those 3 months? like a fake teeth or something? because i have to do it.. i have the same problem he has, but they dont place the crowns right there... they told me i have to wait 3 months for it to heal.. but i dont know what to wear meanwhile.

  • @nfan66 I didn't use anything! FYI, I didn't have a bad tooth that needed to be pulled and immediately replaced - I had been missing that tooth for years b/c another dentist pulled the same one on the other side to make room and thought they needed to be symmetrical or something. So I was used to not having anything there. I did have a retainer with a ceramic thing on it to fill when I wore that. You would prob have to spend extra to get a filler during your wait time :(

  • @nfan66 it's called a treatment partial. It's like a retainer with teeth on it to replace the missing ones.

  • When he started screwing the implant thing in my stomach was in knots!

  • where was this done? like what state? and can you whiten your teeth before the implant? my orthodontist said i would need one since my left lateral incisor is missing :( and this looks better than a bridge...

  • @TheCkaeri

    the implant and crown were placed in Middleton Wisconsin by Dr Chris Kammer. Yes you can whiten your teeth before the procedure.

  • Awesome! Now I can give myself dential implants

  • its alrite.. just annoying

  • This wonderful procedure is great for replacing missing teeth and also stabilizes loose dentures in one simple appointment. Contact us in Middelton, WI at Kammer Family Dental /Center for Cosmetic Dentistry 608-827-6453

  • damn that procedure looks painful

  • It is completely comfortable! Watch the video again. The patient was interviewed immediately following the procedure and he was in perfect shape and "very happy"!

  • I am 17 years old and I recently pulled my 4 first bicuspids for braces but I regret my decision as I want a full toothed smile. Can you replace bicuspids with mini-implants? How much would 4 bicuspids cost? Thanks!

  • Mini implants with crowns may run 2500- 3000 for each. So multiply that by four. Yes you may be able to have your teeth replaced this way if there is enough space after the crowding has been relieved (assuming that is why you had them removed).

  • I notice that "this" proceedure is being done for the replacement of two original front teeth with crowns. Is this the same basic proceedure and equipment used for anchoring full dentures? Is it possible to have this proceedure done for the retainment of full "upper" dentures as well as the typical lowers? Do mini implants require completely new dentures or can they adapt my existing dentures with mating retaining sockets to fit the implant posts? What is the typical co$t??

  • The implant placement is the same as the full denture anchoring technique. This procedure can be used to anchor full upper dentures as well and are usually adapted to them in the office once the implants are placed. The cost is 850-1000 per implant and you may need at least 4 implants on the upper (similar to lower) but sometimes more.

  • Are you able to place these mini implants in the maxillary section of the jaw (i.e. the molar and bicuspid area) without a sinus lift? Or it that a danger area?

  • Yes you can place bicuspids and molars in the maxillary on a case by case basis with an eye on the sinus. I consult with the Shatkins if I have a question because they have placed thousands of these. That is also a free service of the Samuel Shatkin First Lab if you need it. Samuel Shatkin is a Facial plastic Surgeon and an oral surgeon as well. He knows anatomy. Certainly you can get patients a scan as well for back up but you may want to talk to the Shatkins (Todd and Sam) first.

  • What is the difference between mini implants and root form implants? I was told to steer clear of minis because the cylinders are too narrow and would not withstand chewing forces. But I see the root form implants are also prone to failure.

  • As the name implies, the mini implants are smaller. They are also less invasive, more comfortable healing, immediately usable (instead of waiting 3-6 months) and less expensive. They are appropriate on a case selection basis. They work, although many less informed practitioners may say otherwise.

    Neither are prone to failure. They both have similarly high success ratios of over 92 -96%.

  • this video is not opening at all.....can u plz any one help why its happeninig like this..

  • Video seems fine to me DrAnil80. Please message me if you are still having trouble.

  • Dr Shatkin and Kammer are teaching this course to dentists in Middleton, WI at Center for Cosmetic Dentistry April 12th with a full day of instruction that includes a live patient demo of an implant and immediate front crown like you see in the video.

  • "still a little numb", "looks secure", "tingly"

    just u wait until the anesthetic wears off, he drilled thru bone , this usually equals PAIN = heavy pain killers for like a week..oh nd not eating properly for sometime....but i guess its worth it all

  • You might be thinking about root form implants. People report very little discomfort from minis.

  • Was he put out for this procedure?

  • no. local anesthesia only.

  • The car ride home was tough, but i was eating within two days. no heavy pain killers i took the recommended amount of aspirin for 24 hours after the implants. Almost going on two years with my mini Dental implants and Very Happy!!

  • oh...cool..thnx for enlightening me about my kina wrong assumption, u c i was basing it on my experience with wisdom teeth removal(that still didnt emerge from under the bone), which is a procedure that involves drilling thru bone as well..yet again...i took them all out in one go:P

  • @bennyboy421 How old did the dentist say you have to be before getting the implants? I'm a 16 year-old girl and my dentist says I'm not old enough and that my jawbone isnt done growing. I want a second opinion.

  • @MegaBrooke16 I was 17 or 18 at the filming of this video and the surgery. I have been very happy with Dr. Kammer's mini-dental implants. I have not had a single problem, going on 4 years now.

  • @MegaBrooke16 we have placed implants like these for teenagers.

  • @bennyboy421 I'm about to get a dental implant overhaul for that perfect Hollywood smile. I was just wondering, since you have had it done, have you had any problems with it or them? is it still secure? Has the color changed? I just wanted to know because my appointment is Jan 14, 2011.

  • @2710Pocahontas see bennyboy's comment (the patient in the video) just a few below this one. Here is his quote: "I have not had a single problem, going on 4 years now."

  • these scare me!

  • are these as strong as regular implants? how much does this cost say for the tooth shown in video?

  • In the dental journal Compendium, a five year study shows that these mini implant/ immediate crowns have a 98% five year success rate. That is no different than "regular" (root form) implants. However the mini dental implant and immediate crown option will save you $1000-$1500 per tooth. So it is a less expensive simple procedure (does not require invasive surgery), completed in fewer visits (2 as opposed to 7), and more comfortable (no extended 3 month healing time required).

  • Please compare this simple technique to any of the other implant techniques you see on YouTube and tell me, which would you prefer if you needed this service.

    You will see that there is no comparison. It's too bad that 99.9% of the people don't know to seek out the mini dental implant option. Hopefully this video will help.

  • Are these implants only used for the anterior region?

  • No they can be used in the posterior (molar region), but 2 mini's must be placed per molar

  • Could you kindly provide scientific evidence for this statement? I was said the posterior procedure had to be considered as experimental and lacking of a valid EBM support.

  • yup i guess mostly but it depends on the bone dentsity the heightand the width..but i rather to use these mdi's from mandibular anterior region.not also depends on the tooth size...the bone density also.. hope i answered your question and give some correct info..you can correct me if i'm wrong..tnx..: )
