Subperiosteal implants in Costa Rica
A framework designed around your anatomy
For selected cases of advanced bone loss, a custom framework resting on the bone beneath the gums may support a restoration. Careful case selection and soft-tissue assessment are essential.
Educational treatment illustration.
The framework is planned using three-dimensional records of your anatomy.
It is compared with grafting, conventional implants and other alternatives.
Hygiene and ongoing soft-tissue checks are considered from the start.
How it works
A subperiosteal implant is a custom framework that fits on the bone beneath the gums. Its connections support the restoration. Design depends on anatomy, restorative space and soft-tissue quality.
Who may be a candidate?
They may be considered for selected patients with significant bone loss when conventional options are unsuitable. Their role must be compared with grafting, other implant approaches and removable dentures; limited bone alone does not establish suitability.
Your treatment, step by step
- Your history: we discuss health, previous treatment and your goals.
- Three-dimensional assessment: anatomy, bone and tissues are evaluated and alternatives compared.
- A complete plan: surgery, restoration, preparation, estimate and risks are discussed.
- Treatment and follow-up: placement and restorative stages follow your clinical progress.
What to understand before deciding
Possible complications include exposure of the framework through the gums, infection, discomfort and further procedures. Long-term evidence for current custom designs is still developing. Hygiene, gum health and regular reviews are central.
Frequently asked questions
Does it always avoid grafting?
No. Your diagnosis determines the alternatives and whether other procedures are appropriate.
Can I receive fixed teeth immediately?
An early provisional is assessed individually and cannot be promised before your evaluation.
What does the estimate include?
Ask for itemized imaging, surgery, components, restoration, follow-up and any additional procedures.
