I would like dental implants, but I don't have enough bone.

It has arrived in Costa Rica through Sonrisa Para Todos, an innovative technique to offer patients who have little maxillary and/or mandibular bone, a fixed alternative for the restitution of missing teeth.

Subperiosteal implants are a type of dental implant that, unlike conventional dental implants, are placed over the bone, not inside it and under the gum. They are indicated in those patients who are missing several continuous dental pieces where there is not the minimum amount of bone required for the placement of conventional dental implants.

These subperiosteal dental implants consist of a metallic titanium structure biocompatible with the body that is custom-made for each patient. This metallic structure is placed on the bone and fastened to it and on this the gum is repositioned, where some posts will protrude where the fixed prosthetic dental structure is fixed.

Mostly patients who suffer from a significant bone loss of the jaws either for many years with loss of teeth, trauma, as a result of an injury or as a result of periodontal disease (gum disease) are the first to be evaluated for this type of treatment. It is important to emphasize that it is essential to perform a clinical and radiographic evaluation by means of a 3D tomography of each patient to determine if they are candidates for this type of treatment and thus determine the approximate time and cost of treatment.

If you want to know if you are a candidate for this type of fixed prosthetic treatment and rediscover the pleasure of smiling, request an appointment for assessment and treatment plan with 3D tomography at 4010-3333, WhatsApp 7031-7979.
