Implants in Pediatric Dentistry - A Comprehensive Review

By Meenakshi Mahendra Singh

The role of the dental team includes the preservation of the existing dentition, especially in patients with xerostomia, and maintenance of adequate oral hygiene. If some teeth are present, their prognosis might be estimated. The orthodontist might use the intended implants as an orthodontic anchor to obtain the best position for the existing dentition. Particularly important is an adaequate prosthodontic rehabilitation in order to ensure functional, esthetic and psychological well-being of the pediatric patient. Implants in patients with ectodermal dysplasia severe hypodontia or even adontia in children are very rare conditions yet there have been reported cases for successful implant cases in such patients.
