Everything you need to know about dental implants

Endosseous implant

The endosseous implant is the most common and widespread type. It is inserted directly into the maxillary or mandibular bone, providing a stable base to support a crown or bridge. It is mainly made of titanium or zirconia and can take different shapes, such as screws, cylinders or blades. This type of implant is ideal for patients with sufficient bone density and volume.

Subperiosteal implant

The subperiosteal implant is an alternative solution when there is not enough bone to insert an endosteal implant. It is placed above the bone, but under the gum tissue. This implant is often used for patients who cannot or do not want to undergo bone regeneration procedures.

Zygomatic implant

The zygomatic implant is designed for patients with severe bone loss in the upper jaw. Instead of being anchored in the jaw, it is fixed to the zygomatic bone, providing a stable solution when other implants are not feasible. It is an advanced technique for complex cases of bone loss.

Mini Dental Implants (MDI)

Mini dental implants are a smaller version of traditional implants, used primarily to stabilize removable dentures or in areas with limited space. These implants are perfect for patients with thin bones or for those looking for a less invasive alternative to standard implants.

Immediate loading implant

The immediate loading implant allows the application of a crown or prosthesis immediately after the implant insertion. It is an ideal choice for patients with good bone density and sufficient initial stability of the implant, offering a fast and functional solution.

All-on-4 / All-on-6 implant

The All-on-4 (or All-on-6) technique uses four or six implants to support an entire dental arch. It is an excellent solution for patients who have lost all or only a few teeth, offering a fixed and stable solution for the complete rehabilitation of the upper or lower jaw.

Transnasal implant

The transnasal implant is anchored through the floor of the nasal cavity, a rare but effective solution in extreme cases of bone deficiency in the upper jaw. It is used when other options are not possible or adequate.

Conical system

The tapered implant has a tapered shape that provides greater stability, especially in areas with dense bone or in the back of the mouth. It is ideal for patients who need an implant in an area with high bone density.

Short system

The short implant is a solution designed for patients with reduced bone height. Being shorter than traditional implants, it allows to avoid the need for bone grafts. It is perfect for those who want a less invasive procedure.

Pterygoid implant

The pterygoid implant is placed in the pterygoid bone, located behind the upper jaw. This advanced solution is used in patients with severe bone atrophy in the back of the upper jaw and allows to avoid complex bone grafting procedures.

Each dental implant is chosen based on the patient's bone condition and specific needs, ensuring the most suitable solution for his clinical case.
