"Dr. Doray, how many
dental implants should be placed?"
This is a question that should be determined during the treatment
planning phase. A general rule-of-thumb is to place one implant for
each tooth to be replaced, although this is not always necessary.
Other considerations in planning the number of implants needed for
successful treatment include the quality and quantity of the patient's
bone, the anatomy of the bone, functional concerns and the type of final
restoration that is desirable.
It is vitally important to the long-term success of the restoration to
have the correct number of supporting implants. Simply stated, the most
costly mistake is to have an implant fail because not enough implants
are placed to support the teeth. If the number of implants is limited
due to financial constraints of the patient, then the type of
restoration must be altered or possibly another type of treatment
considered.
