Villa Dental Clinic: some successful cases.

At the Villa Dental Clinic we deal every day with complex clinical cases and, at times, with seemingly impossible to solve ones. Thanks to our experience and the preparation of our staff, however,
our patients always come back home satisfied and finally with a perfect smile . Here is a brief review of some real cases of success treated in the clinic.

Case details
This patient of 73, who had a chronic coagulation deficit, came to us for examination as he was interested in total restoration with implants. In a situation like this, the greatest risk was from possible haemorrhaging during and/or post-operation, especially in  traditional-type surgery where the gum is stripped back. With the patient conscious but under sedation, we operated first, on the upper jaw, and then after two weeks, on the lower jaw. In both operations the teeth were extracted and the implants placed using minimally invasive procedures. In both the upper and the lower jaws of the patient the provisional crowns were screwed directly on to the implants  the day after surgery.

Case details
This patient of 50 had had a removable partial denture on the upper jaw for years and the remaining teeth were very loose due to chronic periodontal disease. With the patient conscious but under sedation , we extracted the teeth and positioned the implants with the help of a surgical template obtained from a computerised plan ( Nobelguide ) which allowed us to keep surgical invasiveness to a minimum. At the same time we corrected the gum recession with connective tissue grafts. The following day the patient was provided with temporary fixed crowns screwed directly on to the implants. The permanent crowns were fitted 6 months after surgery

Case details
This patient of 18 was referred to us by her dentist two days after a road accident in which she had suffered the loss of a lateral incisor and upper right canine. Four days after this traumatic event two implants were placed directly into the sockets using flapless surgery to prevent scarring and recession of tissues in an area of the mouth which is extremely important from an aesthetic point of view. The same day as the operation, the patient was restored with two temporary crowns in resin screwed on to the implants. After 6 months these crowns were replaced with two single all ceramic crowns.

Villa Dental Clinica: leader in Europe in computer-guided implantology.

The introduction of digital technology combined with Roberto Villa‘s vast experience in the field of immediate loading has generated significant added benefit for the patient. The Villa Dental Clinic uses the Nobelguide system for digital surgical planning which represents a breakthrough in oral implantology. A scan of the patient’s jaw is transformed by Nobelguide software into a 3D model which allows the computer to find the optimum position for the implants. The imaging is then sent via Internet to a state-of-the-art manufacturing plant in Sweden where a tailor-made surgical template is produced. This template allows us to be extremely precise when transferring the surgical plan carried out by us on the computer directly into the patient’s mouth.

The first advantage of this technology is that it reduces the invasiveness of surgery ( Flapless surgery ). As a consequence physiological healing of tissues is quicker and pain, bleeding and swelling, normally associated with traditional implantology, are more or less absent. Most patients can usually get back to their everyday lives the following day. Another great advantage of this technology is that it can exploit areas of bone for positioning the implants, which cannot be detected in traditional surgery. This allows us to reduce enormously the number and duration of operations we have to perform on patients with limited amounts of bone.. Therefore, self-generated bone grafts (from the hip, skullcap or intraoral areas) or complex procedures of bone regeneration can be avoided, all in the patient’s interests.

Furthermore, the Nobelguide system has been adapted by us so that it can be applied not only to the treatment of completely edentulous (toothless) patients but also to those requiring the extraction of remaining teeth. Thus, even in extremely complicated situations where there is a lack of residual bone, teeth can be extracted, implants placed in position and residual bone reconstructed with biomaterials, all in the one sitting. And also in these very complex cases we can provide the patient with a fixed, temporary crown to satisfy aesthetic and functional needs within 24 hours,at the most. In order to obtain the best aesthetic and functional results from dental implants, surgical invasiveness has to be kept to a minimum, operating times short, and survival in time high.

The Villa Dental Clinic is a leader in Europe in the field of computer-guided implantology and resolves everyday clinical cases normally labeled as impossible.

Nowadays, the Villa Dental Clinic can deal with single, partial or total restorations and provide temporary teeth within 24 hours of surgery, even when faced with difficult or seemingly impossible cases.

In its on-going search for the best aesthetic results, alongside implantology the Clinic boasts a highly professional dental team specialised in finding the best solutions also for the restoration of natural teeth. The orthodontics section works in close collaboration with the other branches of the Clinic and supplies the correct support and approach to oral reconstruction.
