Endosteal Implants and Subperiosteal Implants are widely used implants
Based on Type, the global dental implants are segmented into Endosteal Implants, zygomatic implants, and subperiosteal implants. During the forecasted period, endosteal implants and subperiosteal implants are anticipated to dominate the market. However, endosteal implants are the most common implants that are used. These implants are majorly made of titanium and are implanted in patients with healthy jawbones. Screw-shaped, these implants are placed in the jawbone.
Subperiosteal implants are used by patients who do not have a healthy jawbone. These implants are placed on or above the jaw bone and under the gums. These implants are predicted to be commonly used among aged people having severe dental issues.
Titanium dominated the raw material for dental implants.
By material used to manufacture dental implants, titanium dominated the market for manufacturing these implants. Titanium is a non-toxic element and the human body easily adapts to this material, making it suitable for dental implants. Further, titanium inherits the feature of Osseointegration and is capable of remaining intact for several years, making it suitable for dental implants. It is widely used in endosteal and subperiosteal implants.
Straumann is a global leader in the dental implant industry. It has a wide portfolio of dental implants. In 2019, the company launched a fully tampered implant system, BLX.
