When it comes to dental implants, several options are available to meet your tooth restoration needs. No two people are alike, and no two smiles are alike. Our tooth implant dentist in Los Angeles will customize your dental implants treatment plan to restore your smile in the best way possible.
Popular options in dental implants include:
• Single tooth implants, which are designed to work with dental crowns and replace individual teeth
• Multiple implants, which replace multiple lost teeth
• All-on-four implants, which use four specially placed implants to support dentures
• Full mouth implants, which replace all the lost teeth in an arch
• Mini dental implants, which are ideal for patients who have narrow or low bone density in their jaws and who are not candidates for full-size implants
Most implants are endosteal implants. These implants are designed to be implanted directly into the jawbone and mimic the roots of your natural teeth. However, some people may benefit from subperiosteal instead. These are implants that are placed beneath the gum tissue but above the jawbone. Subperiosteal implants are typically used in patients who have lost significant bone tissue and are not candidates for grafts. Call our office today to learn more about the best type of dental implants for you.
