About the Operation

Single-jaw complete prosthodontics (full dentures/palate prosthesis) is the traditional solution for a patient who has had all teeth extracted from one arch — for example, only the upper palate — filling that large void with an acrylic lip-supported denture bearing a beautifully arranged set of prosthetic teeth. The facial deformity caused by lip and cheek collapse is immediately corrected, restoring a natural cheek profile as well as eating and speech function.

Application Details

  • 1Retention is generally more stable and successful in the upper jaw due to the palatal vault's vacuum (suction) effect compared to the lower ridge.

Who Is It Suitable For?

  • Elderly patients who have lost all teeth in one arch (upper or lower) due to decay, age or other causes and are unable to undergo implant surgery due to bone resorption or other contraindications, or who prefer a rapid, economical, and practical complete denture solution.
