Visitor asks:
Dear Sir/Madam,
I would like to know what you advise when the lower jaw is left without teeth. At present my removable denture is still supported by four teeth, which need to be removed. I know implants are needed, but I would like your opinion: do you recommend two or more implants? When are the implants placed — immediately when the teeth are removed or somewhat later? How many implants are needed for the denture not to be removable? How is a non-removable prosthesis cleaned? I would like your opinion: what do YOU recommend — two or more implants, a removable or a fixed prosthesis? What is the price of the entire treatment in the first or second case? Thank you for your answer and kind regards, Marjanca

Dear Sir/Madam!
For better stability of a removable prosthetic restoration (denture), we need at least two implants (Price: 500 EUR — denture + 1500 EUR — two implants = 2000 EUR). A better effect is achieved with four implants (total price 3710 EUR: four implants + denture with cast base). If you want a fixed restoration (bridge construction), at least six implants need to be placed. The restoration is not removable, so it is more difficult to clean... Price approx. 6000 EUR (depending on the number of metal-ceramic crowns and the implants supporting them). For more precise advice, I would need to see an X-ray.
Have a nice day!
