Visitor asks:
Dear Sir/Madam.
I am 58 years old. Because of periodontitis I gradually lost all the teeth in my upper jaw. I would like to replace my full denture with implants. I would like an estimate of how many implants are needed to stabilize a full upper denture, what eating (and appearance) is like while the implants are integrating, and what the approximate cost of the implants and prosthetic work would be.
Thank you for the information and kind regards.

Dear Sir/Madam!
Two implants may already be sufficient to stabilize an upper full denture. In this case the denture retains the palatal plate.
Price: 750 Eur (implant) X 2 = 1500 Eur (if you keep your existing denture)
In practice, we most often use four implants for this type of treatment. In that case we can make an upper-jaw denture without a palatal plate, most often reinforced with a metal framework. An uncovered palate is very important for the patient's comfort. Speech, taste, smell, salivary secretion... remain unchanged.
Price: 750 Eur (implant) X 4 = 3000 Eur + 710 Eur (denture with cast base) = 3710 Eur.
Have a nice day!
