Set of upper teeth on 4 implant posts

After an accident I am left with no upper teeth and few lower, I currently have upper and lower dentures that are uncomfortable and have to be stuck in. Can I get a complete set of upper teeth on 4 implant posts? How strong are they and how long will they last?

Implants on 4 Posts
by: Sharon B., RDH

Hi EDB,

Technology has come a very long way in the field of dental implants. The answer is yes, depending on the health of your jaw and bone levels, full denture implants can be set on as few as 4 implant posts. A unique variety of posts are available including the mini-implant, which can allow your implant specialist to place the denture the same day as your implant is placed. These are made to last several years.
