In common terms, a Dental Implants can be an artificial replacement for the natural tooth. So a Dental Implant can be anything from a total jaw replacement to just the replacement of a tooth because the natural one has decayed or is not able to keep its original functionality because of any reason.

What are the different types of Implants?

The two basic types of Dental Implants are Endosteal Implant and Subperiosteal Implant-

Endosteal Implant – it is a type of Affordable Implant that a dental surgeon inserts or embeds into the jawbone to replace a tooth permanently.

Subperiosteal Implant – this kind of Dental Implant is generally used when the height of the patient’s jawbone is not sufficient to support the regular functions of the tooth. In this case, a piece is embedded over the jaw bone to support the tooth.
