Full mouth dental implantation involves replacing all missing teeth in either the upper or lower jaw with dental implants. The process typically includes placing multiple implants to support a complete set of artificial teeth. It's a comprehensive solution for those with extensive tooth loss, providing stability and functionality similar to natural teeth.
"All-on-X" refers to a dental implant technique where a full set of upper or lower teeth is supported by multiple dental implants. The number of implants needed can vary, but it's typically sufficient to support a complete set of artificial teeth. These approach provide stability and strength for the prosthetic teeth. It's a popular option for those who have lost a significant number of teeth or need full-mouth restoration.
The "fast and fixed" technique typically refers to an implant-supported full arch restoration that allows for a quicker and more efficient dental implant placement. It often involves the strategic placement of dental implants, and sometimes the use of immediate loading protocols, allowing for the attachment of a temporary prosthesis on the same day as implant placement. This technique aims to streamline the process and provide patients with a functional set of teeth shortly after the procedure.
All on four / six techniques offer an excellent solution to this problem. A hybrid prosthesis, often known as a hybrid denture or bridge, commonly used in full-mouth restorations to address significant tooth loss.
