Any dentist with proper training can place dental implants, which include general dentists, periodontist, oral surgeons, children dentist, and prosthodontists. General dentists need additional training in continuing education courses before placing implants. Dental implants are becoming accepted as the most desirable option of replacing missing teeth. Many emergency dental clinic are even offering dental implant treatment.
