Hello! Welcome to Dent Laracity Dental Clinic.
How can we assist you today?
Our experienced team is here to help you with any questions you may have.
Individuals who have lost all their teeth generally face two treatment options: removable dentures or full jaw implant treatment. Although both methods aim to replace missing teeth, there are significant differences between them in terms of comfort, aesthetics, and long-term success.
As Dent Laracity, a clinic successfully applying modern dental treatments in Antalya, we have compared these two options for you in detail.
Full jaw implant treatment involves placing a certain number of titanium implants in the upper and lower jaws to support fixed teeth. It is typically performed using techniques such as All-on-4 or All-on-6.
Advantages:
Fixed; cannot be removed
Closely mimics the appearance and feel of natural teeth
Excellent chewing and speaking function
Prevents bone loss
Long-lasting solution
Commonly known as "false teeth," removable dentures are artificial teeth placed over the toothless jaw that can be removed when necessary. They are also referred to as complete dentures or full dentures.
Advantages:
Cost-effective
Quick to prepare
No surgical procedure required
Disadvantages:
May move or fall out
Can cause difficulty in eating and speaking
Leads to gradual bone loss beneath the denture
May be insufficient in terms of aesthetics and self-confidence
| Criteria | Full Jaw Implant | Removable Denture |
|---|---|---|
| Stability | Fixed, cannot be removed | Removable |
| Comfort | Feels like natural teeth | May feel like a foreign object |
| Chewing Function | Very high | Limited |
| Bone Preservation | Stimulates bone, prevents bone loss | May cause gradual bone loss |
| Aesthetics | Fully compatible with facial structure/smile | Less aesthetic |
| Lifespan | 15+ years | Approximately 5 years |
| Cost | Requires investment | More affordable |
Full jaw implants are ideal for patients seeking a long-term solution, with sufficient jawbone density, and preferring fixed teeth.
Removable dentures can be a temporary option for individuals who want to avoid surgery or are looking for a more economical solution.
Many of our patients report a significant improvement in comfort, aesthetics, and self-confidence after switching from dentures to full jaw implants.
At Dent Laracity, we carefully plan the most suitable treatment option for you through detailed analysis and with our expert team.
