When getting dental implants,
you should select a dentist or dental team with in-depth knowledge and
prior experience with all aspects of the treatment. It is important to
know that implant treatment consists of two components: a surgical phase
and a restorative phase.
Traditionally, a dental surgeon, like an oral
surgeon or a periodontist, performs the surgical component. A general
dentist, or prosthodontist and laboratory technician performs the
restorative component. However, as implant dentistry has become more
sophisticated, sometimes a dentist who specializes in restorative
dentistry conducts the entire procedure.
