| Parameter | Importance for Patients | Basal Implants | Conventional Implants |
|---|---|---|---|
| Inventor | Creator or developer of the implant system | Prof. Stefan Ihde | Dr. Per-Ingvar Brånemark |
| When | History of success determines, types of varied cases and referrable literatrue of long term success | 1990s | 1950s |
| Where is Implant Placed | Specific location in the jawbone where the implant is placed. It is an important consideration as the location of the implant can affect the overall success and if failed from where implant will be removed | Outer bone hard part of jawbone | Inner spongy bone, easy remodelling |
| Success Rate | Higher success rates mean better long-term outcomes | Good | Excellent |
| Bone Density Requirement | Determines suitability for implant placement | Suitable for low bone density | Suitable for all bone types |
| Supporting Literature | Demonstrates reliability and effectiveness | Very Limited supporting literature | Extensive supporting literature |
| US FDA Approval | Ensures safet, testing and effectiveness by United States Food & Drug Administration | Not Approved | Approved |
| Diameter of Implant | Affects stability and strength of implant | Smaller diameter, often 3.3-3.5mm | Larger diameter, often 4-6mm |
| Number of Pieces | Two piece implants can simplify placement and reduce complications, gives opportunity to place final teeth as required not possible in single piece | Single piece | Two piece |
| How Implants Integrate with bone | Determines level of osseointegration and implant stability | No Integration, they are screwed | Screwed in and bone formation around implant |
| Implant Retention | Determines ease of maintenance and replacement. If implant gets loose (fails) is it possible to remove | No its Permanent, | Removable easily |
| Load Capacity | Determines time until full restoration is possible | Immediate loading as no osseotegration is required. | Delayed loading (between 4 weeks to 4 months) |
| Final Crown or Prosthesis Load time | Determines time to load crown or prosthesis | Can be placed immediately | No bone formation is required, Although teeth can be given in a day, but without putting load on implant |
| Retrieval Difficulty | Ease or difficulty of removing implant if necessary | Extremely difficult to remove | Very easy to remove |
