Are there difference in quality among implants?
Like virtually any product there are very high-quality implants and lower-quality models. For example, there are differences in the shape of implants, particularly with the surface. The surface of an implant can be modified to improve the principally tissuecompatible material properties of titanium, but they can also be reduced. Always have your dentist inform you about the characteristics of the implant that is to be used. Ask about long-term experience. Also ask about the longterm availability of replacement components in case your denture ever has to be renewed in the future.
