Summary of 6 questions about molar implants

1. Why do you need molar implants?

Molar teeth take on the role of chewing and stabilizing the facial skeleton. Therefore, when losing molars, you need to get molar implants as soon as possible to:

• Ensure chewing function:Molars are mainly responsible for crushing food before moving it to the stomach, supporting the digestive system to operate effectively. Loss of molars reduces chewing ability, prevents food from being thoroughly mashed, puts pressure on the stomach and increases the risk of gastrointestinal diseases. 
• Improve facial aesthetics:When teeth are lost, the jawbone at that location will gradually disappear because there is no longer stimulating force from the tooth roots. Over time, bone loss changes the shape of the face, cheeks can become sunken and gums recede, greatly affecting aesthetics. Tooth loss causes the chewing force to be unevenly distributed, and in the long term it can lead to temporomandibular joint disorders, causing pain and difficulty moving the jaw.
• Protect neighboring teeth:When molars are lost, adjacent teeth tend to shift into the space caused by tooth loss, causing an imbalance in the bite. This causes the remaining teeth to endure greater chewing force, easily wear down and weaken over time.
• Improves pronunciation:Molar teeth also aid in clear pronunciation. Losing teeth can change the pronunciation of some sounds, affecting daily communication.
• Prevent bone loss:When teeth are lost, the jawbone will gradually disappear because it can no longer bear the force of chewing. Implants help stimulate bone growth, prevent bone loss, thereby naturally preserving jaw structure.

Installing molar implants not only helps restore the ability to chew but also protects oral health, maintains facial aesthetics and ensures long-term quality of life.

In case of losing many adjacent teeth or losing all molars, you can refer to theAll-On-4or All-On-6 dental implant method to comprehensively restore chewing function.

2. Do molars need bone grafting or sinus lift before implantation?

Before the procedure, the doctor will take a 3D Cone Beam CT scan to evaluate bone density and volume. If the jaw bone is not qualified to plant a molar implant, the doctor will prescribe supporting procedures such as sinus lift or bone graft.

• In case of needing a sinus lift:When the upper molars are lost for too long, the jaw bone can be lost, and the maxillary sinus expands and drops near the top of the jaw. At that time, if the bone is not high enough to place the implant, the doctor will prescribe a sinus lift to create enough space for the implant.
• In case bone graft is needed:If the jawbone is severely resorbed and does not have enough density or volume to hold the implant firmly, the doctor will add more bone to ensure stability when implanting.
