What are the different types of dental implants?
Endosteal Implants: The most prevalent endosteal dental implants are primarily comprised of titanium. They are inserted into the jawbone and function as prosthetic tooth roots. A crown or bridge can be applied to the implant once it has fused with the bone. Subperiosteal Implants: These implants are put on top of the jawbone but behind the gums. The gums are allowed to recover around a metal framework that is implanted in the jawbone. Once the gums heal, posts are added to the frame and protrude through the gums. This allows a crown or bridge to be installed on the subperiosteal implants. Zygomatic implants: Zygomatic implants may be recommended if you have substantial bone loss in the upper jaw and are unable to get standard implants. The implant is instead put in the cheekbone, or zygoma, and connects to the upper jawbone. READ MORE
