What are The Different Types of Dental Implants ?

There are several different types of dental implants, among which include:

* An artificial bone substitute.
This type of implant involves the placement of a synthetic bone substitute in the top of the bone to help rebuild the shrinking ridge and provide sturdy support for dentures. Because it is made of the same type of mineral found in natural bone, this type of implant bonds to the existing jaw bone.

* Endosteal implants.
This type of implant is inserted into the jaw bone to serve as the root of the tooth.

* Implants subperiostiales.
This type of implant, usually an option for people who can no longer wear conventional dentures, implant is specially designed to fit directly into the existing bone.

Dental implants may be inserted by a dentist trained in implant, or by an oral surgeon in a hospital.
