The implants are positioned just below the gum tissue and given time to fuse with the bone. Temporary abutments may be placed on the implants until the healing phase is complete. Your existing denture may be modified so that it can be worn without disturbing the implants during the healing process. |
|
If all your upper teeth are missing, six or more implants may be used to support an upper denture. |
|
You will be fitted for a custom bridge that screws directly into the implants. The screw holes will be covered after insertion. |
|
Your new teeth are firmly supported by the jaw, stimulating it and halting bone loss. Your dentist will be able to remove the prosthesis when necessary for cleaning and maintenance. |

Multiple implants inserted in your gums and an implants supported removable prosthesis placed over them |
