Conventional Implants

Conventional implants measure about 3.4 to 5.8 mm in diameter and are placed in edentulous areas in the bone.

Best suited for those who have enough bone, as additional treatments to increase bone width and height will be required for those with less amount of bone.

The placement of a conventional implant requires multiple appointments.

Conventional Dental implants can be placed immediately after extracting tooth or months or years after tooth extraction.

Treatment is performed under local anesthesia.

Single tooth implant costs between Rs. 20,000 to 30,000 average. Full mouth implant cost varies between Rs. 2.5 lakhs to Rs. 6 Lakhs and depends on many factors like brand of dental implants, type and number.

Mini Implants

Mini Dental Implants are the titanium implants with smaller diameter as compared to regular conventional implants. Mini dental implants measure < 3mm. (1.8-3mm).

They are mostly used when there is less bone width i.e those who have lost too much bone mass in their jaws to receive a full-sized implant.

They can be used in patients who aren’t able to undergo invasive surgery and repeat dental appointments. Dentists can usually install mini implants in only one visit using local anesthesia and without any sutures.

Cost of mini Dental Implants range from Rs. 15000-20000. And full mouth implant treatment may range from Rs. 50000-100000 depending upon Implant number and brand Denture Quality.

Basal Implants

The Basal implants are placed deeper into the lower jaw bone called as basal bone. the basal bone can offer excellent support to the implants because of its densely corticated nature, at the same time offers high load bearing capacity than that offered by the spongy crestal bone.

The basal bone is less prone to resorption and infections.

Basal implants can be used in patients who have more bone loss and have more chances of infection.

Placement of basal implants are often flapless procedures; this is ideal for old age patients and diabetic patients.

A single basal implant costs Rs. 15,000 to Rs.30,000. full-mouth basal implant, the price range will be Rs.1.5 – Rs. 5 Lakhs.
