Dentures vs Implants

What is a dental prosthesis?

Dentures are removable dentures that replace single or multiple missing teeth. They are particularly useful if many teeth are missing or implantation is not possible.

Advantages:

• Cost-effective solution
• Quick adaptation
• No surgery necessary

Disadvantages:

Hold is often dependent on adhesive creams

Restricted chewing sensation

May feel strange in the mouth

What is a dental implant?

A dental implant is an artificial tooth root made of titanium or ceramic that is permanently inserted into the jaw. A crown, bridge or prosthesis is attached to it.

Advantages:

• Very high wearing comfort
• Aesthetically pleasing like a real tooth
• No strain on the adjacent teeth

Disadvantages:

• Expensive to buy
• Surgical intervention necessary
• Healing time up to several months

Which is better for me? Decision

Implant useful for:

• Sufficient bone substance
• Desire for a fixed, long-term solution
• No problem with surgical interventions

Prosthesis useful for:

• Many missing teeth
• Low budget
• Medical restrictions (e.g., blood thinners, osteoporosis)

Conclusion – dental implant or prosthesis?

The decision depends on your individual requirements. Those who focus on comfort, durability and aesthetics are usually better off with an implant. However, a prosthesis may be the better (or only possible) solution in certain cases – mainly for financial or medical reasons.
