Up to this date, there are many types of dental implants, and here is your ultimate guide to find out which type of dental implant is the one that’ll suit your gum and face.


What Are The Types Of Dental Implants?


There mainly three common types of dental implants:


  • Endosteal Implants
  • Subperiosteal Implants
  • Zygomatic Implants


Let’s dig deeper and find out the differences between each type of dental implants!



Endosteal Implants


Endosteal Implants are the most common type of dental implants that is widely used to fill a void in your smile, it’s shaped like a screw that’s placed in the jawbone.


Endosteal implants are usually made of Titanium, and once placed inside the jawbone, the bones start to grow gradually around the implant until it becomes a part of the jawbone.


Who is the ideal candidate for Endosteal Implants?


If you are looking to have an endosteal implant you should have the following criteria:


  • A good overall health
  • A good oral health
  • No gum disease in the implant site “preferably the whole mouth”
  • Over 25 years old until the jawbone is fully grown
  • An ideal bone density that withstands the process

But if you are not ready for the Endosteal Implant, here are your options… 


If you have low bone density or missing any of the previously mentioned criteria, then you have these options:


  • Go for the Subperiosteal Implant which doesn’t involve inserting the implant inside your jawbone
  • Choose Bone Augmentation in which your jawbone can be restored by bone grafts or other methods to induce bone growth
  • Or choose Ridge Expansion, a procedure that involves expanding the tooth socket when there is not enough space for an implant
  • Another choice is Sinus Augmentation, a choice for when there is not enough bone in the upper jaw for dental implants

What happens during the Endosteal Implants process?


  • The doctor starts by inserting an implant inside the jawbone, it is usually done under local anesthesia, and this stage takes about 3-7 months until the implant becomes a part of the jawbone.


  • After that, the doctor places an abutment onto the implant which is the part that holds the crown on top of the implant, and many doctors attach the abutment onto the implant on the same first session.


  • Finally, the crown is fixed above the abutment with medical cement or with screws, giving you the full smile of your dreams that lasts up to 20 years with good maintenance! 


Subperiosteal Implants 


Subperiosteal implants are a great choice if you don’t have enough bone density to withstand the implants and the whole process, instead of fixing the implant inside the jawbone, it is replaced right under the gumline.


A specially made metal frame is placed on top of the jawbone, providing attachment posts that extend beyond the gum tissues to create the perfect base for the crown to be perfectly fixed.


Subperiosteal implants process is much shorter and it takes about one month in general, and the dental implants last for 10-15 years with good maintenance! 


What are the advantages of choosing subperiosteal implants?


  • No need for further bone grafting or augmentation
  • Ideal for low bone density if no further augmentation is preferred
  • A versatile option if you have more than one missing tooth 


Zygomatic Implants


Zygomatic Implants is another type of dental implants that includes placing the implant inside the zygomatic bone which is located in the cheekbone, it is a more complicated process but with great results!


Zygomatic Implants are ideal for people who need dental implants in their upper jaw but suffer from severe bone loss or as the zygomatic bone is stronger than the jawbone and can be a great base for dental implants.


The process of zygomatic dental implants takes about 4-6 months for proper healing and the results last more than 12 years, it is an advanced and more complex procedure and often requires general anesthesia.





What are the advantages of choosing Zygomatic Implants?


  • The strongest foundation for dental implants in the upper jaw
  • Faster recovery and guaranteed results that last for long
  • Ideal solution for people with extremely low-density
