Which dental implants are the best?

Are you looking for a permanent solution for lost teeth? Consider dental implants.

A dental implant is a long-term tooth replacement option. It's a small titanium post that fuses into the jawbone and provides a strong foundation for tooth restorations. 

Restorations like crowns sit on top of the implant. They're designed to look like your natural teeth. 

Dental implants preserve bone structure and tooth function. So, which dental implant is best for you? Let’s explore the different types of implants.

Types of Dental Implants

There are two main types of dental implants. Your dentist will recommend the best one depending on your jawbone and your preferences.

  1. Endosteal implants. The endosteal implant is the most common implant type. It preserves the bone structure, but it requires adequate bone. The implant is surgically fused into the jawbone. Once the site is healed, the abutment or post is connected to the implant, and the artificial tooth is placed on top of it. 
  1. Subperiosteal implants. Subperiosteal implants aren’t as common as endosteal implants, but they may be suitable if there’s significant bone loss in the area and the patient isn’t comfortable with a bone grafting procedure. The implant is placed on top of the bone but still under the gums. 

Different Dental Implant Techniques

Your artificial tooth is carefully crafted for uniformity. Here are the different dental implant techniques your dentist may discuss with you. 

Factors to Consider When Choosing Implant Type

You and your dentist may look into these factors when deciding which implant is most suitable for your case.
