Dental Implant Options When You Have No Teeth

If you’ve lost all of your teeth, dental implants can restore comfort, function, and confidence. The right option depends on whether you prefer a removable or fixed solution, as well as bone health, budget, and long-term goals. In this video, Dr. Obeid reviews what options are available, their advantages and disadvantages.

Option 1: Denture Supported by Two Implants

Best for: Entry-level implant treatment

Two implants anchor a removable denture, improving stability and comfort compared to a traditional denture. This is the most affordable implant option and is often planned digitally for precision.

Option 2: Denture Supported by Four Implants

Best for: Better stability with a removable denture

Four implants provide increased retention and reduced movement, especially helpful for patients with bone loss who still want a removable prosthesis.

Option 3: Fixed Hybrid Implant Prosthesis

Best for: Non-removable teeth

Typically supported by 4–6 implants, a hybrid prosthesis is bolted in place and combines a metal framework with acrylic teeth. It offers fixed teeth at a lower cost than full ceramic bridges but may require maintenance over time.

Choosing the Right Option

The best solution depends on bone availability, lifestyle, budget, and whether you prefer removable or fixed teeth. A personalized consultation and digital planning will determine the ideal treatment.
