Implant

Types

• Single Tooth Missing
  The single tooth implant restoration consists of three parts. Namely, the implant post which replaces the tooth root, the abutment which will support the crown and the prosthetic crown itself. The crown is either cemented onto the abutment or held in place with a screw.
  
  With today's developments, there are a variety of implant systems, models and ranges available. Each line catering to the individualized needs of patients.
  
  A single tooth implant with crown is one of the best permanent restorations. This solution both looks and functions just like a natural tooth.
• Multiple Tooth Missing
  If multiple teeth are missing in different parts of the mouth, several single tooth implants are good replacement restorations. If multiple teeth are missing within the same region, several missing teeth can sometimes be replaced with fewer implants because dental implants are stronger than the natural tooth roots. This solution includes having implant fixed bridges done.
  
  An implant fixed bridge is very much like a conventional bridge except the support is actually over implants rather than natural teeth. The implants themselves act as man-made roots. A great advantage is that this is that it is self-supporting unlike conventional a tooth-supported bridge that puts a heavier load on the remaining teeth.
• All Teeth Missing When all teeth are missing or in a condition that all teeth need to be replaced, there are two basically types of full arch implant reconstructions options:
  
  Fixed bridges anchored to dental implants
  
  Implant Supported Dentures
