Faltan todos los dientes inferiores
Although many patients have no problem wearing an upper denture, some people find it difficult to wear and eat with lower dentures. Several implant-supported replacement options are available if you are missing all of your lower teeth.
Ball Attachment Denture
Una opción es tener dos implantes colocados en la mandíbula inferior y una dentadura hecha que se encaja en estos implantes. This option allows your lower denture to be more stable while chewing than without implants. Sin embargo, there will still be movement of your lower denture, and sore spots will occur if any food particles, especially seeds, are caught under it. As with all removable replacement teeth, todavía se necesita citas periódicas para el ajuste de la prótesis.

Bar Adjunto de la dentadura
Another option involves placing four to six implants, depending on your jaw size or shape, into your lower jaw. After healing is complete, the implants are connected with a custom-made support bar. Your denture will be made with special internal retention clips that attach onto the support bar, enabling the denture to snap firmly into place. Esto se llama un "overdenture.” La ventaja de esta opción es que es mucho más estable que la primera opción y permite muy poco movimiento de la prótesis. Su dentadura es todavía extraíble para fácil limpieza y mantenimiento.

Screw Retained Denture
A third option involves placing five or more implants in your jaw and attaching a permanent denture. Your denture is held in place by screws or clasps that secure it to the support posts or bar. It doesn’t touch the gum tissue, which allows you to clean under the denture without removing it. This denture will replace all your missing lower teeth and will not be removed except at maintenance visits. Although cleaning under your denture without removing it is more time consuming and requires more dexterity, many patients who want a permanent denture prefer this option.

Implantes individuales
La opción final es que todos los dientes reemplazados individualmente por lo que parece estar creciendo fuera de su tejido de goma y más cercanamente se asemejan a la apariencia de sus dientes naturales. Esta opción requiere generalmente ocho o más implantes. Pilares separados o soporte entradas para cada uno de estos implantes se hará y se colocarán coronas para cada diente que falta. Los dientes a menudo se unen entre sí por el seno injerto para reemplazar hueso altura fuerza y apoyo. General, Esta es la opción más costosa, porque requiere la más implantes y fabricación de dientes de reemplazo individual. Las opciones de reemplazo también pueden ser limitadas por el tamaño actual y la forma de la quijada.

What If I’m Missing All Of My Upper Teeth?
A similar range of treatment options is also available for your upper jaw. Sin embargo, because the bone is not as hard as that in the lower jaw, people often need more implants to support their new replacement teeth. Depending upon the number of implants to be placed, it may be possible to eliminate the need for covering the roof of your mouth with a complete denture. This option allows you to fully taste your food and gives you a better sense of its temperature. Your denture will feel more natural. You will still have a removable denture, which makes cleaning the support bar and denture much easier.
