Dental implants are not recommended in childhood as they are permanent restorations. If your child has a missing tooth, you can wait until after puberty to perform the implant operation. Children are in the stage of growth and development and their teeth and bones are constantly changing. Since dental implant is a permanent restoration, if dental implant is done during childhood, the implanted teeth cannot develop with the development of the child’s jaw and face, which will have an adverse effect on the child’s jawbone. It even affects the function and appearance of dental implants. Therefore, dental implants are not advisable in childhood. If children have missing teeth or other oral problems, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time and perform operations such as prosthetic restoration and fixation under the doctor’s guidance. If there is a need for dental implants, it is recommended to do so after puberty.
