For complete tooth loss, the conventional method is complete denture repair, using alveolar bone and mucosa for support, and atmospheric pressure and saliva adhesion for retention. Currently, oral implant technology is becoming increasingly mature and widely used, and implant-supported complete dentures have become an option. Retention and support are better than traditional complete dentures, and clinical success rates are high. However, implant-supported complete dentures require higher costs, longer production cycles, and certain requirements for patients' local oral conditions and general health.

Complete tooth loss is typically treated with conventional complete dentures, which rely on the alveolar bone and mucosa for support, and atmospheric pressure and saliva for retention. Currently, oral implant technology is increasingly mature and widely used, making implant-supported complete dentures another option. These offer better retention and support than conventional complete dentures and have demonstrated high clinical success rates. However, implant-supported complete dentures require significant expense, a longer fabrication time, and certain requirements regarding the patient's local oral conditions and overall health.
