Abstract

An edentulous smile might look appealing in an infant but it can be a matter of concern to the parents. With the progression of time, the loss of teeth will negatively affect the child’s ability to chew and may also produce an impact on the self-esteem. Traditionally, the management of tooth loss in the child is done by conservative means by using a removable prosthesis, Maryland bridge or resin-bonded-restorations, although none of these methods are completely satisfactory and have their own drawbacks. The use of dental implants has been increased with leaps and bounds ever-since the concept of osseointegration has been identified and accepted. Dental implants in children is the most preferred treatment option by the parents as it provides a good esthetic and functional results thus improving the child’s quality of life, social integration and self-esteem. This review article is an attempt to highlight the use of dental implants in normal growing children and the influence of dental and skeletal growth on the stability of those implants.
