Should I replace my lower dentures with individual implants for each missing tooth?

23 May 2019

Pedro usually recommends either a full-mouth restoration or “all-on-four” procedure when replacing a full row of teeth. A full-mouth restoration uses six implants to support 12 teeth, while an “all-on-four” procedure uses four implants to anchor a denture to the jawbone, as opposed to individual crowns.

A thorough examination will show how many implants you need to support a full row of teeth. This will be anywhere between two and eight rods. The examination can help to determine if it would be best to use a bridge or denture and whether it should be removable or non-removable.
