PROSTHETIC OPTIONS FOR FULL MOUTH RECONSTRUCTION- REMOVABLE PROSTHESIS OR FIXED IMPLANT SUPPORTED PROSTHESIS????

Before the introduction of Implant in Dentistry the elderly population used to get the missing teeth replaced with complete denture. The main disadvantages patients were facing-

1. Lack of retention
2. Difficulty in speech, mastication, ability to chew.
3. Altered taste sensation.
4. Bone resorption.
5. Denture stomatitis.

To overcome the disadvantages of removable complete denture implant supported prosthesis is introduced. The different types of prosthetic options are-

                                            Implant supported fixed prosthesis         



                                   Implant supported semi fixed prosthesis     

Hence, The advantages being offered by the implant supported prosthesis are-

1. Improved retention.
2. No difficulty in speech, and mastication.
