Visitor asks:

Dear Sir/Madam!
I am 70 years old. In the upper jaw I have a complete removable denture without a single tooth remaining, while in the lower jaw I have a clasp denture attached to crowned teeth 2, 3 and 4 (affected by periodontal disease); there are no other lower teeth either. Can you make fixed upper and lower prostheses on implants for me, and how much would that — very approximately — cost?
Thank you for your answer and kind regards!

Dear Sir/Madam!

From what you have written, I assume that the remaining teeth in the lower jaw also do not have a good long-term prognosis, so we are dealing with an edentulous upper and lower jaw. If we treated the condition with removable prosthetics (that is, dentures), just two implants in the lower jaw might be sufficient, as they can already stabilize the lower denture well enough. The upper denture is usually functional even without additional implant support. The price of the treatment would be:
- 500 EUR X 2 = 1000 EUR (both dentures)
- 750 EUR X 2 = 1500 EUR (two implants)
- 2500 EUR (total).

If we try to manage the condition optimally, we would need four implants in each jaw. In that case, the upper denture could be made without a palatal plate, which is very favorable for the patient's comfort. Price:
- 710 EUR X 2 (denture with cast base) = 1420 EUR.
- 750 EUR X 8 (implants upper and lower)= 6000 EUR.
- 7420 EUR (total).
Fixed prosthetic constructions require a larger number of implants; at least six in each jaw. In that case you do not remove the construction even for cleaning.
For any additional information, please call us by telephone.

Have a nice day!
