What is the most effective method of fixed dental implant today? How much does treatment cost? The article below will answer patients’ frequently asked questions about fixed dentures.
Currently, the most advanced method for fixed dental implant. This technique restores lost teeth by implanting titanium posts into the patient’s jawbone. Then, the doctor proceeds to attach the porcelain tooth to the abutment using an abutment joint.
Fixed dental implants are a remarkable progress in modern dentistry. This method does not invade natural teeth and has high reliability and rich aesthetics. After implant placement, patients can eat and communicate as normal.
Dental implants help preserve real teeth
With high safety, dental implants can be performed at many different ages. However, doctors recommend the following subjects to consider before treatment:
Ideally, patients should go to a reputable dentist to get advice and examination from a doctor before having a fixed dental implant.
Doctors at the dentist advise patients before treatment
Another method for permanent dental implants is to make a porcelain dental bridge. This technique includes two parts: dental abutment and dental bridge. The pillar has a supporting role and is made up of two or more real teeth that have been ground into small pieces. If real teeth do not meet the requirements for an abutment, the doctor can perform an implant. Then, the dental bridge is fixed on the abutment to help fill the missing tooth space.
There are 4 main types of fixed tooth implantation using porcelain bridges:
Healthy teeth on both sides of the tooth loss area will be selected as abutments. Then, the doctor grinds these teeth down and attaches a porcelain bridge on top. Porcelain dental bridges are modeled after the shape and size of real teeth. Fixed dental implant using a traditional porcelain dental bridge is the most popular technique.

The method of fixed dental implant using a Pass porcelain bridge is usually only used for front teeth. Dentists often only use one real tooth as an abutment, so the stability is not good. If applied to molars, strong bite force will affect the pillar teeth.
Porcelain dental bridge
Fixed dental implants with porcelain veneer bridges do not invade the patient’s natural teeth. Instead of grinding the teeth, the doctor uses a metal or ceramic bracket glued to the back of the abutment teeth.
However, this technique has the disadvantage of poor bearing capacity, easy to fall when chewing vigorously. Therefore, the suitable location to make a porcelain dental bridge is the front teeth. In addition, people with bite problems should not use this form.

If the patient’s natural teeth do not meet the requirements for permanent dental implants with porcelain bridges, the doctor must implant implants into the jawbone. On the other hand, this technique is suitable for patients with many missing teeth, both limiting natural tooth grinding and saving the cost of multiple implants.
This method is a combination of implants and porcelain bridges
There is no optimal method of permanent fixed dental implant, the doctor will prescribe a treatment method appropriate to the patient’s condition. Below is a table comparing two forms of implants and porcelain bridges:
| Fixed teeth with implant posts | Fixed tooth implant with dental bridge | |
|---|---|---|
Independence | Implants exist independently and do not invade or damage real teeth | The two teeth adjacent to the missing tooth must be ground down to serve as “support pillars” for the bridge |
Aesthetics | High aesthetics like real teeth, difficult to change color | Relative aesthetics depend largely on the skill of the doctor |
Longevity | About 20 years, can last forever if teeth are taken care of properly | Shorter (from 7 to 10 years), due to the jaw bone disappearing, causing the dental bridge to shift |
Complications may occur | Infection in the implant area or the body’s allergy to the titanium post leads to a rejection reaction | Risk of pulp damage at the site of small, long-term grinding teeth leading to tooth loss |
Price | About 15 – 20 million/tooth depending on the type of implant | Cheaper than implants |
Dentistry needs to clearly explain to patients all treatment costs
If financially qualified, patients should choose a fixed dental implant method with implant posts to limit bone loss. This is the direct cause that affects the bite, distorts the mouth… reduces the aesthetics and chewing ability of the patient.
