Possible types of prostheses
Prosthetics with implants is a modern way to restore teeth and the best choice if all teeth are missing.
Full dental implantation is more profitable than installing single implants, and also looks more aesthetically pleasing. The structure consists of a base on which the prosthesis is attached. At the attachment points, the metal implant is connected to the crowns on the abutment.
In the non-removable version, the connection point is rubbed with dental cement; in the conditionally removable version, it is placed on a screw structure.
If the patient is missing all teeth, the doctor determines:
- Removable denture Made of adhesive or implant-based plastic that must be removed for periodic cleaning.
- Fixed Permanent prosthesis made of plastic or metal ceramics on implants.
- Conditionally removable Based on a multi-unit system with a screw design that can be removed by a physician during replacement.
What is the difference between the upper and lower jaw
When installing a prosthesis on the entire jaw, the specialist takes into account structural differences:
- The bone below is stronger and denser. The healing process takes up to 4 months. If there is not enough volume in terms of thickness or height, bone grafting is performed
- The bone is looser on top. Nerves and maxillary sinuses are located close to it. In case of atrophy, the bone must first be built up. More base implants are required. Healing occurs over 5–6 months
If the teeth have been missing for a short time and bone resorption has not occurred, treatment and prosthetics occur faster.
Basic implantation technologies
Classic technology
Prosthetics occurs in stages. First, the specialist prepares the patient’s oral cavity, treats dental diseases if necessary, and removes remaining roots. Then the implants are installed.
A few months after they have healed, the doctor puts in a temporary prosthesis, and after habituation and adaptation, a permanent one.
It is permissible to install up to 14 implants per jaw. During the procedure, the gum is cut and metal pins are screwed into the alveolar process of the bone crest. Installation occurs in certain places at right angles under local anesthesia.
An important condition is the height of the bone tissue - from 5 mm. With plastic surgery and extensions, implantation (for good engraftment) is carried out after 6 months.
Prosthetics with a permanent prosthesis made of metal or metal-ceramics is possible 3–6 months after implantation. This is important so as not to immediately load the bone. During this time, the doctor sews up the incision sites on the gum. A week before the installation of the adaptive prosthesis, special formers are placed.
The classic method is the longest; it takes 6 to 9 months before installing a permanent prosthesis. In this case, it is possible to obtain a good aesthetic effect and an even gingival contour.
Cost of full dental implantation
In case of complete edentia, before prosthetics, the patient must undergo an examination and consultation with a dentist-implantologist. The doctor issues a referral for tests, a panoramic image of the jaw, and a computed tomography scan. After examination and evaluation of diagnostic results, the specialist makes a decision on the method of treatment and offers the patient possible options.
The total cost with implants depends on:
- Method - classic is more expensive
- Method of fixation - cement fastening or conditionally removable multi-unit
- Number of installed rods
- Material
- System used - brand, country of origin
- The need for soft tissue plastic surgery or bone augmentation
Specialists at the K+31 clinic conduct detailed diagnostics before prosthetics. If necessary, treatment and preparation of the oral cavity for surgery are performed. The prosthetic method is selected taking into account the patient’s medical history.
In the process of work, we use materials from global manufacturers, combining implants, prosthetic arches and components of one set. This helps to avoid metal incompatibility and, as a result, peri-implantitis and complications. Patients with chronic diseases are offered safe one-step methods.

Treatment for edentia
This is the name of a dental defect, which is expressed in the partial or complete absence of teeth, caused by gum disease or injury. Congenital adentia also occurs. As it develops over time, the gums sag, bone structures are destroyed, the remaining teeth become loose and the distance between them increases.
When chewing dental units are destroyed, the digestion process is disrupted, diction deteriorates, and the effect of sunken cheeks appears, which greatly ages the face.
The most dangerous complication of edentia is the consequences. The bone tissue of the jaw atrophies, and the process of prosthetics becomes more complicated. In this case, the price of full dental implantation increases due to preliminary treatment.
To do this, the doctor performs soft tissue plastic surgery, sinus lifting, argumentation, i.e. builds up bone tissue to the required volume for subsequent implantation and prosthetics.
If necessary, before surgery, the doctor treats caries, pulpitis or periodontitis, and performs sanitation of the oral cavity. The remains of decayed teeth are also removed and periodontal pockets are cleaned.
