what are the different types of permanent teeth implants
Various types of dental implants are available, including: Endosteal implants are placed in the jawbone. Typically shaped like small screws, cylinders or plates, they are the most commonly used type of implant. Subperiosteal implants are placed under the gum but on, or above, the jawbone. This type of implant may be used in patients who have a shallow jawbone and cannot or do not want to undergo a procedure to rebuild it. Dental implants also come in different sizes and heights, including standard and narrow (mini).
