ROOT-FORM DENTAL IMPLANTS:
The most common form of dental implants are the root-form implants, that is placed in the position of tooth root into the jawbone. These implants are known as stock implants, that is, they come in specific lengths and diameters. With the help of a CBCT scan, we can measure the width and length of the available bone and place the appropriate size of dental implant.
WHY CUSTOM-MADE DENTAL IMPLANTS?
There are various situations where root form implants may not be possible due to the bone anatomy and condition or defect in the jaw.
In these situations, custom dental implants are indicated. There may be a specific requirement for the patient that may be preventing us from giving them regular implants. So, we need to customize the implant that fits into the jaw in the specified position.
