If you are missing all of your teeth in the upper jaw, you may be wondering what your options are. One option is to get full arch upper jaw implants. Full arch upper jaw implants are a permanent solution that can help you regain your smile and confidence.
What are full arch upper jaw implants?
Full arch upper jaw implants are a type of dental implant that can replace all of the teeth in the upper jaw. They are made up of four or six implants that are placed into the jawbone. Once the implants are in place, a fixed bridge is attached to them. This bridge will have artificial teeth that look and feel just like your natural teeth.
Full arch upper jaw dental implants can be done with different techniques and protocols, depending on the amount and quality of bone available in the upper jaw. Some of the most common techniques are:
- All-on-4 technique: This technique uses four implant posts to support a full arch prosthesis. It is suitable for patients who have moderate bone loss and do not require bone grafting.
- All-on-6 technique: This technique uses six implant posts to support a full arch prosthesis. It is suitable for patients who have more bone available and want more stability and strength for their prosthesis.
- All-on-8 technique: This technique uses eight implant posts to support a full arch prosthesis. It is suitable for patients who have ample bone available and want the maximum stability and durability for their prosthesis.
- Strategic Basal implant technique (MUB technique): This technique uses basal implants, which are placed in the cortical bone of the jaw, to support a full arch prosthesis. It is suitable for patients who have severe bone loss and cannot undergo bone grafting.
- Pterygoid implant: This technique uses an implant post that is placed in the pterygoid bone at the back of the upper jaw, to support a full arch prosthesis. It is suitable for patients who have insufficient bone in the front of the upper jaw and want to avoid sinus lift surgery.
- TTPHIL protocol with Bioline implants: This technique uses tilted implants that are placed in the residual bone of the upper jaw, to support a full arch prosthesis. It is suitable for patients who have minimal bone available and want to avoid sinus lift surgery and bone grafting.
- Zygoma implants: This technique uses long implants that are anchored in the zygomatic bone (cheekbone), to support a full arch prosthesis. It is suitable for patients who have extreme bone loss and cannot undergo any other implant technique.
