Implants need to be how many mm away from natural teeth?

1 mm
1.5 mm
2 mm
2.5 mm

The correct answer is: 1.5 mm

Implants need to be placed approximately 1.5 mm away from natural teeth to ensure proper spacing for maintaining healthy gums and adequate cleaning access. Placing implants too close to natural teeth can lead to complications such as food trapping, difficulty in cleaning, and potential damage to surrounding structures. Therefore, the correct answer is B (1.5 mm). Options A, C, and D (1 mm, 2 mm, and 2.5 mm) are not the ideal distances recommended for placing implants next to natural teeth.
