The implant is visible from the gum to complete the procedure, having the merit to be able to hold whole dentures safely for people who don’t have a high enough bone structure.
  2. Implants inside the bones: Over two stages where it is implanted directly in the jaw bones as a replacement to dental bridges and removable dentures. Comes with multiple types like nail, cylinder, and plain implant.
  3. Implants over two stages: The first stage is to put the implant inside the tissues and the bone under it then closing the cut to protect the implant and leaving the surrounding area to heal. The gum is later opened in the place of the implant to put the final piece of support and installing the final tooth.
  4. One stage implants: putting a relatively long implant that bulges out of the gum and then after healing a support with crown without any additional surgical operation is put. This considered a nonsurgical implant and can be done over two stages as previously mentioned.
  5. Small teeth implants: depends on a small implant with smaller size for faster healing, therefore the doctor doesn’t have to open the gum since this operation uses a screw that is implanted in the bone leaving a small hall in the gum to heal quickly. This is considered to be one of the traditional operations.
  6. Immediate implants: Depends on a certain size and bone density to plant with a surgical operation, then a crown is added after a short period of time. Those cases are chosen very carefully and happen with one operation.

Then, the correct operation is chosen for the child and on another hand the crowns for the adults are totally different from those made for children because the growth of teeth depends on the age as well as the growth of the facial structure. This difference requires the same when choosing the material and the shape of the teeth to be implanted.

As for alternatives to dental implants for children before puberty, a spacing conservative can be installed to prevent the teeth from pushing towards the empty space and external teeth can be put, but not inside the bone since it’s growing.
