Should I get dentures or implants?
Implants and dentures are both effective treatment methods for tooth loss. The differences between these two methods can be characterized in the following way.
+ Dentures : Dentures supplement missing teeth on the surface. They do not supplement the root of the tooth.
+ Implants : A metallic foundation is implanted into the jaw bone. Crowns are inserted to supplement teeth.
An overwhelming number of our patients choose dentures over implants as a treatment method. This is because we use the telescope system, German dentures that are more reliable than implants. Telescope system dentures are easy on the body and safe. Patients are often very pleased with them because of their esthetic and functional superiority.
Cases in which implants prove difficult
+ When the jaw bone is too thin
+ When remaining teeth are loose
+ When there are a large number of damaged or missing teeth

Worrying about Implants
Do you recommend implants or full dentures for people in their 30s?
I have gingivitis. What denture methods are available to me?
I'm in my 40s. Should I just get implants?
I would like to get implants, but it is too expensive because I need so many.
My teeth are ruined due to an eating disorder. I only have a few left.
My body is in no condition to go through implant surgery...
I have 3 teeth left in the upper right side of my mouth. What kind of dentures do you recommend?
What choices are there other than implants? (woman in her 40s)
What is the lifespan of implants and the telescope system?
How about dentures for someone like me who has only a few teeth on the top or on the bottom?
It was recommended to me that I try All-on-4 but I feel uneasy about that.
