I am about to receive a dental implant to restore a missing tooth and while researching it seems that there are so many implants. I was wandering if I should ask for one over the other .
I know Nobel Biocare implants are consider the best (or most popular and have no idea )
i don't have any problem to pay more i just want to make sure i am receiving the right treatment.
any info is welcome.
thanks - Mo.

Types and Brands
by: BD

There are many different dental implant types, each one designed to meet specific patient needs; only after a thorough evaluation will your dentist recommend the best treatment option for you.

Of all the types of dental implants, the root-form titanium dental implant is the most common. This option is also known as an endosseous or endosteal implant, a name that stems from the fact that these tooth implants are placed directly in the bone. Root-form implants are made of the reliably strong and corrosion-resistant metal titanium, making these dental implants very similar in appearance to screws, nails, or cones.

Even thought most of the time the implant is chosen by the Doctor some of the top dental implant companies I would recommend getting your implants from would be Nobel Biocare, Straumann, Astra Tech, BioHorizons,3I or Zimmer.

Absolutely!

You should ask your dentist who the implant manufacturer is and why your dentist chose that brand.

Yes check the implant brand.

I have been going to this Chicago Dentist, www.bigsmiledental.com/ for years. My family and I are very happy with this dentist and his entire staff is great!. They also specialize in Cosmetic Dentistry. I never had to check the brand my dentist uses.

Bad implant work
by: Anonymous

I had Nobel Biocare implants and have had a lot of trouble with them. The dentist took off with all my money, the implants are of the wrong prescription, and not fit for purpose. none of the major teaching hospitals use this brand as it has a bad reputation.

I was told Nobel Biocare has a 10yrs guarantee. No chance. Astra-Tech and a dental contract is what is needed. I do not beleive Nobel Biocare make a good implant other people agree with me. Do your research into implant manufactures before any work is started.
