Video walkthrough: attaching the full-arch prostheses
This purely visual 3D animation from WestDent Clinic Turkey shows the mechanics of fitting full-arch dental restorations. It demonstrates how the prosthetic teeth align and attach to pre-placed dental implants.
-
Initial implant placementThe animation begins by showing four dental implants already positioned in the upper jawbone and four in the lower jawbone.
-
Upper arch attachmentA complete set of upper replacement teeth is guided downward and secured onto the four upper implants.
-
Lower arch attachmentFollowing the upper jaw, a full set of lower replacement teeth is guided upward onto the four lower implants.
-
Final bite alignmentThe upper and lower jaws close together, demonstrating the final alignment and natural bite of the new prosthetic teeth.
Who is speaking: The video features no speaker. It relies entirely on a 3D visual demonstration.
What the video does not show: The surgical placement of the implants, patient recovery time, specific materials used, or the cost of the procedure at WestDent Clinic Turkey.
Frequently asked questions
What does the video from WestDent Clinic Turkey show?
This 3D animation demonstrates how a full-mouth dental restoration works. It shows a complete set of upper and lower prosthetic teeth being securely attached to four dental implants in each jaw.
How many implants are used in this procedure?
Based on the visual demonstration in the video, four implants are used in the upper jaw and four in the lower jaw to support the full-arch prostheses.
What is an implant-supported prosthesis?
An implant-supported prosthesis is a full or partial set of artificial teeth that is securely anchored to the jawbone using dental implants, rather than resting loosely on the gums like traditional dentures.
Does the video show the actual surgery?
No, the video is a 3D computer animation. It does not show the surgical procedure, bleeding, or the healing process required before the final artificial teeth are permanently attached.
What are the risks of this dental procedure?
As with any oral surgery, dental implant procedures carry risks such as infection, nerve damage, or implant failure. Patients should consult with a qualified dentist to discuss these risks and determine if they are a suitable candidate.
