Help, what type of dentist specializes in tooth implants?

There is none: Dental implants is not a recognized specialty within the dental profession. Any dentist who has advanced training to surgically place implants and/ or restores them can do so.

Changes: A few years ago, most of the implants were placed by oral surgeon, and then the general dentist prepared the implant for placing a crown or bridge upon it. Now, many general dentists are well trained to perform the entire treatment. I would ask the general dentist how many implants they have placed, and possibly the success.
