Discover the Best Implant Types for Your Needs - Expert Guide

Implants are a critical part of dental implants. There are currently three types of dental implants:
1. Hollow round implant. Less clinical use.
2. Leaf-shaped implants. Leaf implants are primarily used to repair missing posterior teeth. Depending on the location of the missing teeth, the number of missing teeth and the shape of the local alveolar bone designed for various implants; it is usually made of pure titanium and can also have one or two parts. Mainly suitable for blade alveolar bone or insufficient alveolar bone height. The main advantages of leaf implants are that the implant has less bone damage, a large area in contact with the bone, and a thin leaf. After implantation, the buccal and lingual sides support thicker bone and provide greater stability. For special parts, it can be determined as needed. Design flexibility.
3. Spiral planting. There are two types of cones and cylinders, with cylinders being more commonly used. The most common materials are pure titanium or titanium alloys as the basis of the structure. At present, the surface is sprayed with bioceramics, biooxidized, and bone is added at the same time.

How should we differentiate between types of implants? Regarding dental implants, most of Aimei’s customers do not know the specific types of dental implants. They tend to focus on the brand, price and other issues. In fact, an in-depth analysis of dental implants varies greatly in type. The following analysis is based on the different characteristics of the implants. Different types of implant materials can be divided into: metal implants, ceramic implants, composite implants and other material implants. Recommended article: Which structural components of implants are currently the most popular metal implants, mainly made of pure titanium. This is because titanium has good biocompatibility, no toxic side effects, no magnetism, and no irritation. Moreover, long-term experiments have proven that pure titanium has the characteristics of stability, good wear resistance, good corrosion resistance, good moisture content in the body, etc., and is not easy to adhere to organic matter. Due to the complicated process of pure titanium, the service life of pure titanium dental roots in China is about ten years, while that of high-quality plants imported from abroad is about thirty to forty years.
