At Gentle Dental Care, we offer a variety of dental implant options and determine the appropriate option based on individual needs. As the most common type of dental implant, the endosteal implant is one we frequently recommend at our practice. This type of implant is inserted directly into your jawbone, providing a secure foundation for your artificial teeth. With this procedure, you can expect a two-stage surgical process, starting with the placement of the implant, followed by the attachment of your new tooth or teeth once the surrounding gum tissue has healed. For patients who lack a sufficient quantity of healthy natural jawbones, we offer subperiosteal implants. Subperiosteal implants will be placed to rest on top of the bone but underneath the gum, making them a suitable option for those who are unable or unwilling to undergo a bone augmentation procedure. In cases of severe bone loss in the upper jawbone, we might recommend zygomatic implants. These are stronger and more durable, providing a solid foundation for your new teeth. If you only require the replacement of a single tooth or a small bridge, mini dental implants could be a great option. These implants are smaller and shorter, making them ideal for areas that have limited space or bone volume. For patients with multiple missing teeth, we offer the All-on-4 implant technique. This method involves the positioning of four dental implants in strategic positions to support a full arch of teeth, providing a stable and efficient solution for full-mouth rehabilitation. Choosing the most suitable dental implant is a decision that should be based on your specific dental condition, the condition of your jawbone, the number and location of your missing teeth, and your overall health and personal preferences. Our goal is to provide you with expert advice and comprehensive dental examinations to help guide you toward the most appropriate decision for your dental health.
