I am 68 years old. Today I had the last tooth in my lower jaw extracted, so I am facing a complete denture. My dentist expects that I will have problems because of a low ridge. I am considering implants to which the denture could be attached. I am interested in the procedure, the conditions for implant placement, the healing time and, last but not least, of course the price. Kind regards and thank you for your answer.

An edentulous lower jaw is always problematic in terms of the stability of a lower complete denture. We certainly recommend placing titanium implants in your jaw.
The procedure is relatively simple and quick: 45 minutes for two implants. We incise the mucosa at the top of the ridge, drill the implant sites, insert the screws and suture the wound. After the procedure, we cool the area and take antibiotics. After ten days, the sutures are removed and the old denture is adjusted to the new condition of the gums. You wear this denture for another four months, after which we usually make a new one and connect it to the implants, which by then have already integrated with the bone.
The price of an implant is EUR 900 + denture (EUR 500–700).
The procedure is completely painless; your age is more than suitable.

Thank you and have a nice day!
