What Are the Advantages of One-Piece Implants?

In this video, Dr. Thomas Baggett, III, explains why one-piece dental implants, a time-tested design, are outperforming two-piece systems and reducing complications like peri-implantitis.

 

One-piece dental implants are not a new concept. In fact, the earliest dental implants were all one-piece designs, and many of those have stood the test of time. Over the years, two-piece implants have been developed, but when compared to the modern success of one-piece implants, the advantages are clear.

One-piece implants are extremely strong and help us avoid many of the complications associated with traditional two-piece systems. For example, we see significantly lower rates of peri-implantitis, a type of gum disease that affects implants. Overall, the success rate of one-piece implants is comparable to, or even greater than, that of two-piece implants.
