DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SINGLE PIECE IMPLANTS & TWO PIECE IMPLANTS
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SINGLE PIECE IMPLANTS & TWO PIECE IMPLANTS
SINGLE PIECE IMPLANT
|
TWO PIECE IMPLANT
|
Implant and abutment are fused. They are manufactured as one piece.
 |
Implant
and abutment are separate. The abutment is either cemented or cold
welded. If abutment is secured with a screw onto the implant, then it is
considered to be 3 pieces
 |
Design is simple, no joints, single piece.
|
Design is complex, 2 parts joint by screw.
|
Single
sitting surgical procedure and very often flapless (no open surgical
procedure). Implant procedures are less time consuming than that
required for bridgework.
|
Very
often more complex surgical procedures are necessary, spread over 2 or 3
sittings in a period of 3-6 months. ( Implant placement, healing screw
placement and abutment placement.
|
A
wide range of sizes and designs are available. Suits various bone types
and measurements. The design even help to avoid bone augmentation and
sinus lifts.
|
Limited size and designs are available thereby limiting their application.
|
Immediate Loading- ie; patient can be given crowns / bridges the very next day.
|
Delayed loading- very often a waiting period of minimum 3 months is necessary after loading the implant with prosthesis.
|
Much cost effective when compared with 2 or 3 piece implants.
|
Expensive with respective to cost of implants as well as time taken for treatment procedures.
|
From
patient point of view, less complex treatment procedure, less number of
sittings, crowns / bridges can be cemented on a day or two.
|
From
patient point of view, more number of sittings, Crowns/ bridges
cemented only after 3 months after healing phase. Expensive.
|
There is no screw loosening since there is no separate abutment-screw-implant assembly.
|
Screw loosening is very common. Being 2 piece, the relation between root portions and abutment can present many problems.
|
Maintenance
is very simple. Being 1 piece, strength provided by implant is
excellent and there is no separate root portion and abutment portion.
|
Maintenance
is more complex. Very often screw has to be tightened at periodic
intervals as there will be micro movement between implant and abutment.
