SUBPERIOSTEAL/CUSTOMISED JAW IMPLANTS
Unlike classical and more well-known dental implants that have to be placed within the jawbone, subperiosteal implants are positioned over the bone. They are titanium metal frameworks placed by taking advantage of the shape of the bone structure and subsequently fixed to the bone with the use of multiple, really small screws.
This suitable solution is considered by your surgeon in order to help with rehabilitation in patients who suffer from severe loss of bone support due to wear or disease and who consequently cannot be treated with classical implant surgery.
This is an extremely technique sensitive procedure and we are one of the very few practices in the country offering this service.
