How many Dental Implants are needed to replace all teeth?
It is always case specific and ranges from 4-8 implants per jaw. A delicate female patient with vegetarian diet and average bite force will need just 4 Implants per jaw, whereas a well built male patient with broad jaws and heavy bite forces may need 8 implants in an arch. The number of Implants is also governed by availability of bone. when there is adequate bone both in front and back region to place long and wide straight implants- 5-6 Implants per jaw should be good. When the adequacy or quality of bone is less implants may be placed at angles and number may be increased to give better bone distribution. Minimal number is 4 per jaw for fixed teeth. Removable dentures can also be given with better fit on just 2 implants. So it also depends on type of replacement.
To summarize number of Implants to replace all teeth may vary from 2-8 per jaw depending on multiple factors. So consult your dentist and get the best option available for you. Call at 7071876876 to book your appointment at Procare Dental Clinic in Thane or Mulund, Mumbai.
