Dental implants have become a revolutionary solution for restoring smiles and improving oral health. We discuss several popular implants available below, offering insight into the diverse options that patients can explore. When you need dental implants in Gilbert, AZ, contact Higley Dental Care . Endosteal Implants Endosteal implants are one of the most common types of dental implants on the market. These implants are surgically placed directly into the jawbone, where they fuse with the surrounding bone tissue over time. Endosteal implants consist of a titanium post that serves as the artificial root for a dental crown, bridge, or denture. This type of implant is suitable for patients with adequate jawbone density and volume, as it requires a stable foundation to support the implant. Endosteal implants offer a durable and long-lasting solution for replacing missing teeth, restoring functionality, and enhancing the smile. Subperiosteal Implants Subperiosteal implants are another type of dental implant we offer, particularly for patients with insufficient jawbone density or volume to support traditional endosteal implants. Unlike endosteal implants, subperiosteal implants are positioned beneath the gum tissue, resting on or above the jawbone. These implants consist of a metal framework that is custom-designed to fit the shape of the patient's jawbone. Subperiosteal implants are secured in place with screws or other attachments and serve as a stable foundation for dental prosthetics, such as crowns, bridges, or dentures. Zygomatic Implants Zygomatic implants are a specialized type of dental implant designed for patients with severe bone loss in the upper jaw, particularly in the area of the cheekbones (zygomatic bone). Unlike traditional implants that are placed directly into the jawbone, zygomatic implants are anchored in the dense bone of the cheekbone, providing a stable foundation for dental prosthetics. This innovative approach allows patients with insufficient bone volume to still benefit from dental implant treatment without the need for bone grafting procedures. Zygomatic implants are often used in conjunction with regular dental implants to support full-arch restorations, providing a comprehensive solution for replacing multiple missing teeth or restoring an entire upper dental arch.
