Do you know the difference between dental implants? That’s okay, not many people do until they need one… or more. Dental implants are made of a variety of materials, some better than others.

Dental implants are divided into two categories; endosteal implants and subperiosteal implants. Endosteal implants attach to the jawbone to provide an anchor for artificial teeth. Subperiosteal implants are a metal framework fitted over the jawbone to provide anchors for artificial teeth. This type is used when jawbone support structures are damaged or unable to support an endosteal  implant. Dental implants are composed of different materials and procedures. The most common type of dental implant is a root-form titanium dental implant.
