The most common way to classify dental implants is: Osseointegrated implants and subperiosteal implants.

• The endo-osseous or osseointegrated implants:
  This type of dental implants are those that are surgically placed in the jaw bones or in the jaw bone. Once the osteointegration is complete, the dentist proceeds to place the new prosthesis.
• Dental screw implants: They are the most used type of implant since their results have been the best to date. They are the ones that last longer and those that need less time to complete osteo-integration. Its shape is like a screw and said component is made of titanium.
• Cylindrical dental implant: This type of dental implant is less used than the previous ones, however; They have small pores or perforations that allow the bone to develop inside and thus can be perfectly fixed. It is a slow process since the bone has to adapt to the implant. This is the reason why each day is more in disuse.
• Dental implant of plates: Its effectiveness depends on the type of tooth in which it is integrated. They give very good results when a central incisor is replaced at the level of the maxilla, that is to say; when the bone is wide and deep. They are the least used and not recommended when the tooth loss is total and not partial.
• Subperiosteal or juxta-osseous implants:
  This type of dental implant is less and less used. They are usually used in patients with a minimum bone height. By having a larger structure, they require major surgical operations and sometimes the perfect osteo-integration is not achieved. This type of implant consists of a metal structure or frame that is placed under the gums in the jaw bone. Its shape adapts to the bone to stay properly fixed.

When we think about getting a dental implant, one of the first questions we ask ourselves is: How much do dental implants cost? And the truth is that there is some uncertainty in this issue. The advertising campaigns of the dental clinics bomb with very different prices, in short, the price of a dental solution depends on many factors, which are:

• The materials that comprise the dental implant: Dental implants are composed of implant, crown and abutment. The price of these components depends on the materials of which these three parts are composed, however; the part in which the prices differ the most is in the crown, since this finally replaces the real tooth.
• The crown of the implant, which replaces the natural tooth, is the element in which the materials of which it is composed can vary the most. These can be made of metal, porcelain or ceramic.
• The pillar that allows adaptation between the crown and the implant is usually made with materials such as titanium or ceramic.
• The implant: The implant or screw; which replaces the root of the tooth is usually manufactured in titanium, a material that has been shown to be totally innocuous and with an optimal adaptation to the bone tissues of the mouth without creating any type of allergic reaction.
• The quality of the materials: In addition to choosing between the different materials that make up the dental implant (metallic alloy, zirconium, resin, porcelain or ceramic) that are a factor that affects the overall price of this dental solution, the quality of the same is perhaps the most determining factor when establishing a price.

• Price comparison: There are very attractive offers in the market, however; sometimes; It is not advisable to be carried away by them, since savings can affect the quality of materials.
• Investigation of the materials of which the dental implant is made to make a good choice. Before exposing a treatment it is necessary to gather certain information about it. Look for information, ask for advice from a professional dentist, etc.
• Analysis of the quality of the materials used in the dental implant. This is a very important step because this can depend on the duration of the implant, your comfort, and the facilities it provides such as chewing, etc.
