Types of Dental Implants There are three common types of dental implants that you can choose from Endosteal, subperiosteal, and zygomatic.
Endosteal Implants Endosteal implants are the most common type of dental implant. Subperiosteal Implants Another type of dental implant is Subperiosteal Implants. If this applies to you, maybe this next implant will suit you better. Zygomatic Implants Zygomatic implants are the least common type of dental implant available to you. Other Techniques If complications arise and your jaw cannot support implants and a Zygomatic implant is absolutely out of the question, your dentist may suggest other alternatives.
Bone Augmentation Your dentist will restore the bone in your jaw if, in the case, it can not support implants. Sinus Lift This procedure involves adding bone below the sinus if the bone there has managed to deteriorate due to missing upper back teeth. Ridge Expansion It is possible that your jaw is simply not wide enough for implants. Immediate load Dental Implants This type of dental implant is much like adding a spare tire on to your car except with teeth.
Mini Dental Implants These are toothpick sized implants that are extremely narrow. All-On-4 This is used as an alternative for placing a full set of top or bottom replacement teeth.

Kate Newsome 16 Aug Dental implants provide individuals with a complete restoration option for missing teeth. By replacing missing tooth roots, these types of dental implants provide people with the strength and stability required to eat all the foods they love, without struggling to chew.
Additionally, these types help stimulate and maintain jawbone, preventing bone loss and helping to support facial features. With each type of dental implant, there are different coating, connector, and size options that your Prosthodontists will choose from. While there are several methods to placing implants, the different types typically fall into one of two categories.
Endosteal Endosseous Implants: Endosteal is the most commonly used type of dental implant. They are sometimes used as an alternative to a bridge or removable denture. Endosteal implants include screw types threaded , cylinder types smooth or bladed types. Your prosthodontist can help determine which type of dental implant will work best for you, but endosteal implants are safe, effective and the most popular choice used today.
An endosteal implant starts by screwing the implant into the jawbone, which requires sufficient jawbone health and density. If you have a narrow jawbone ridge naturally or one that is short or narrowed and worn down due to trauma or disease, you might not have enough bone needed to properly support an endosteal implant. In this case, a subperiosteal implant may be an option.
Subperiosteal Implants : Subperiosteal are rarely used today. They were once primarily used to hold dentures in place in patients with insufficient bone height. If you wear dentures, this may be the solution to all your denture problems. And if you have a lot of missing teeth, this may also be an excellent option to restore your smile and confidence.
But the key thing to all these types of dental implants is whether or not you are a good candidate for dental implant surgery. How do we determine that? When a tooth is missing, the surrounding bone begins to deteriorate. You need a certain amount of bone present so the post can fuse with it. If you have been missing a tooth for a while, there may not be enough bone to perform dental implant surgery. To determine this, we use a CBCT scanner. This modern technology gives us a 3D view of your mouth and jawbone so we can evaluate your bone quantity.
If you have enough bone, we will move forward with your personalized treatment plan. This procedure can help your body regenerate bone and tissue. When you have sufficient bone, you will be able to move forward with the surgery. If you or your child are too young, you may need to wait until your facial structure has developed. This is typically around the age of 16 for girls and 18 for boys. In the meantime, our Bellevue and Issaquah dentists can create an interim solution for your missing tooth.
Like most surgeries, good general and oral health is required for dental implant surgery. If you suffer from certain conditions like diabetes, are a heavy smoker, or have gum disease, then dental implants may not be viable. Rest assured, our dentists will evaluate you on an individual basis and if necessary, will work with your physician to find a solution. Whether you are missing one tooth or multiple teeth, dental implants can help you restore your smile!
