4 Types of Dental Implants
Before you start
reading about the 4 types, you need to know what dental implantation is.
Introduction
An artificial tooth core is rooted into your jawbone in the dental Implant. When you lose or remove one of your teeth, it is the only widespread option to have that tooth again. This method of planting teeth has become very popular now. It has been considered a successful way for the past 30 years. Deep research shows that more than 5 million implants have only been made in the U.S. The artificial structure of the teeth contains 3 parts known as:
- The Implant
- The Abutment
- The Crown
Anyhow, the
implantation procedure has 4 types which are described below.
- Single Tooth Implant
- Supported Bridge-Implantation
- All-on-4 Dental Implants
- 3-on-6 Dental Implants
Single-Tooth Implant
This option works when your only tooth is missing. Single-Tooth Implant is a reliable option when you want comfort and relief. In this procedure, the dentist attaches a titanium post to the jawbone in the place of the missing tooth. After the process, the dental implant dentist puts a crown over the titanium core. And this is how the single-tooth Implant begins to work.
