Subperiosteal implants are a specialized treatment option for patients with severe jawbone loss who may not be good candidates for conventional endosseous implants. Unlike regular implants that are placed inside the bone, subperiosteal implants are designed to sit on the surface of the jawbone, beneath the periosteum, following the anatomy of the maxilla or mandible. Modern versions are usually custom-made using digital imaging, CAD-CAM design, and additive manufacturing, which has made them more precise and more feasible than older historical designs.
At MilimInternational, subperiosteal implant cases are approached as advanced rehabilitation, not routine implant treatment. Dr. Ali Direnç Ulaşan evaluates the patient’s anatomy, prosthetic goals, hygiene access, and functional demands before deciding whether a custom subperiosteal implant is the most predictable option. For patients with major bone atrophy, this approach can create a path toward fixed teeth without relying entirely on extensive grafting. The key is proper case selection, precise planning, and a design that supports long-term function and maintenance.
