Treatment with a short implant - Dental Implants Net


This treatment is conducted using implants shorter in length than standard implants (about 10 mm in length).
Short implants can be placed if the bone height is about 5 to 7 mm. Therefore, even if the bone height for implant placement is insufficient, implant treatment is made possible without bone augmentation/bone grafting. Of course, the treatment period is shorter than in processes involving increasing the bone.
However, as there are several conditions for the use of short implants, their use may not be possible depending on the patient’s individual occlusal force and oral conditions. In addition, dentists must be very skilled to use short implants effectively.
