General
This question is more than six months old, so the information in the answer may no longer be accurate.
Visitor asks:
At 46, I have already been wearing complete lower and upper dentures for 20 years, so I "died" at 26... I decided that I would nevertheless like to "live" a little more, so I went for a consultation with a dentist, carrying a panoramic X-ray. He assessed that in the lower jaw the removable denture could be stabilized with 2 or 4 implants, while in the upper jaw, with 4 implants (probably 2 of them with artificial bone – sinus lift, implantation of artificial bone and then implants), a removable or even fixed palateless prosthesis could be made.
It is obvious that such a solution would represent a very demanding procedure. I am turning to you because I urgently need a "second opinion". I realize that without a precise X-ray (CT) image you cannot alter the proposed solution, so I ask you to provide only the financial and time framework for a procedure comprising: 4 implants in the lower jaw + removable denture and 4 implants in the upper jaw + palateless removable denture. Additionally, please provide an outline of the solution for a "fixed prosthesis". Thank you!
Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:
Dear Sir/Madam!
Price of the procedure for each jaw:
EUR 750 (implant) X 4 = EUR 3,000 + EUR 710 (denture with cast base); total EUR 3,710.
Time frame:
implantation: one hour for each jaw.
suture removal: ten days after the procedure.
loading of implants: approximately 3 months after implantation we can make the denture, which is also attached to the implants. Until then you wear a temporary denture. Four visits are required to make the denture.
For a fixed restoration, approximately 6 implants are required in each jaw.
Have a nice day!
