Dentist Prof. Dr. Ömer Kutay answers implant questions. For every missing tooth, one implant Is it necessary? Ömer Kutay answers. If the number of missing teeth is one, one implant is done.

An Implant for Every Missing Tooth

If there are two missing teeth and they are side by side, two implants can be placed. There is an exception to this; if there are two missing teeth side by side in the lower jaw front region, one implant can be placed and the same implant can carry the adjacent tooth.

Since the frontal bone is very hard, an exception is made only in this area. If the number of missing teeth is three, a bridge can be made between two implants.
