Basal implants are a type of dental implant that are anchored in the jawbone at the base, rather than in the traditional method of anchoring at the top of the jawbone.
This type of implant is often used in cases where there is not enough jawbone height for traditional implants, or when a patient is missing all of their upper or
lower teeth. The implant provides stability and support for a full arch of replacement teeth, without the need for extensive bone augmentation procedures.
Basal implants have several advantages, such as faster healing times, lower failure rates, and reduced surgical complexity compared to traditional dental implants.
Additionally, they can be placed in a single surgical session, which can help reduce costs and minimize the number of appointments required. However, basal implants are not appropriate for all patients, and it is important to discuss the potential benefits and risks with a qualified dental professional before deciding if this type of implant is right for you.
