The importance of recovering your smile
Smiling again, eating with peace of mind, and speaking without insecurities is fundamental for quality of life. That's why today we'll talk about one of the most effective, comfortable, and durable solutions to replace lost teeth: the implant-supported prosthesis.
What is an implant-supported prosthesis?
It is a dental structure designed to replace one, several, or all lost teeth, and is fixed on dental implants placed in the jawbone. There are different types of implant-supported prostheses, but they all have one thing in common: they provide greater stability, functionality, and aesthetics than traditional removable dentures.
Most common types
Fixed prosthesis on implants: also called implant-supported prosthesis. It is screwed or cemented onto the implants and cannot be removed.
Overdenture on implants: it is a removable prosthesis that fits firmly onto the implants through special attachments (like locators or balls). It can be removed for hygiene, but offers much more stability than a conventional denture.

Who can use this type of prosthesis?
Implant-supported prostheses are ideal for people who have lost several or all teeth and want a more stable and durable solution than traditional dentures. A prior evaluation is necessary to see if the patient has enough bone to place implants, although currently there are techniques to regenerate it if necessary.
