What are dental implants?

Many patients come to the clinic with the question, what are dental implants? Should I choose dental veneers or dental implants? I would like to answer this question briefly in the most common language. After the loss of teeth in the mouth, there are a total of two methods of making dentures, movable dentures and fixed dentures, that is, movable dentures and fixed dentures, fixed dentures can be fixed on natural teeth or on artificial tooth roots, that is, on implants. Due to the wide variety of conditions in the patient’s mouth, the decision as to whether implants are possible and whether a fixed denture can be made can only be made after a thorough examination. Implants are a medical commodity. Due to differences in production processes, brands, etc., the prices of many current brands vary widely. Strictly speaking, products from regular manufacturers are available and are tested. The better the patient’s own condition, the greater the margin of choice of brands available, and this is where the patient’s budget is important. When the budget allows, the doctor chooses the implant system according to the patient’s requirements and bone condition. This is more or less similar to the purchase of other goods. If the budget does not allow, other treatments can be accepted first. Express your ideas clearly and work out the problem with your doctor.
