Tilted Implants

Tilted implants are a specialized solution in dental implantology used when the available bone structure is limited or compromised. Unlike traditional implants that are placed vertically into the jawbone, tilted implants are inserted at an angle, allowing for better utilization of existing bone and providing support where it might otherwise be insufficient. This technique is particularly beneficial in cases where the bone volume or density is inadequate, reducing the need for bone grafting procedures and potentially shortening the overall treatment time. By angling the implant, it can engage more stable bone regions, increasing the surface area of contact and enhancing the overall stability of the restoration. Tilted implants require careful planning and precise execution by skilled dental professionals to ensure optimal positioning and alignment with neighboring teeth and structures. Advanced imaging techniques such as CT scans and computer-guided surgery are often used to accurately plan the placement of tilted implants. Overall, tilted implants represent a versatile approach in modern dental implantology, offering effective solutions for patients
