Possibly: There is a technique called "all on four" that is done where a hybrid bridge is created and attached to the implants. Whether or not your situation is acceptable would need to be determined by someone in your area using this technique.

Denture with implant: Ask your dentist if they are familiar with a procedure called all on four. Ask them if you are a candidate for non-removable teeth? It is hard to give an complete answer without more information, but this is a good starting point to get the dialogue going.

Depends : There are different types of implants. If your type supports it, then you can screw the entire set of teeth to the implants.

Depends...: ... On many factors. Size and type of implants. Strength of bone. You need a professional evaluation by a dentist.

Most Likely: All depends on the position of the implants and their angulation and alignment. At our office, (by design dental implant center), we specialize in the "all-on-4" technique. This is a set of fixed teeth built on 4 implants. They are not removable (except by us). An entirely fantastic improvement in your quality of life. You may be a candidate. See your local prosthodontist.

Implants in back?: Usually 4 lower implants are only placed in the front of the jaw because there is no nerves there to effect. If that is where they are, then no a bridge would not work. If there are implants in the back also, you could have a fixed hybrid denture with plastic denture teeth.

Depends: Goals need to be identified before you start. Are these "mini implants"? If so, then no. How far are they spaced? Any angle to the back implants? You need an exam from an experienced implant dentist to go over your options. There is a procedure called "all on four". But the final restoration must be planned at the start.

Depends : Depends where in the mouth they are located, the health of the implants and the length and diameter of the implants. If you want something more than a denture you may have to consider placing 3-4 more dental implants to give you teeth that stay in all the time.

Yes: You can have a full set of teeth screwed onto the dental implants. A permanent option where the teeth are not removable. Consult your dentist to see if this is an option. I hope you did not have mini implants placed.

The right dentist: You will get varying answers to this question primarily because there are a whole host of variables involved with such a question (some already outlined). You need to find a provider that has experience with implant prosthetics, maybe even consider finding a prosthodontist (specialist) to give you all your options on how to restore the 4 implants. Ideally a plan is created before the surgery.
