Full Mouth Dental Implants

Full mouth dental implant surgery and traditional dentures are both treatment options for replacing missing teeth, but they have significant differences. Dental implants are much more secure than dentures because they’re surgically placed into the jawbone. Unlike traditional dentures, which are removable, full mouth dental implants are permanently fixed. Implants also look and function like your natural teeth, providing you with a better quality of life. 

Candidacy for full mouth dental implant treatment is decided by a few factors. First, the patient must have enough bone density in the jaw to support the implants. If bone density is lacking, you may be referred to get dental bone graft treatment before the placement of your implants. Systemic health conditions, like diabetes or heart disease, can affect healing after surgery. Our Network of highly skilled doctors who specialize in dental implants will work with you to find an option that will fit your dental condition, lifestyle, and budget.  

Full mouth dental implants can last more than 25+ years, with proper care and maintenance. Care for dental implants includes keeping good oral hygiene practices like regular brushing and water flossing, as well as attending routine check-ups with your dentist. While the implants themselves are durable, it’s possible that the crowns may require replacement if they become cracked or broken.   

Recovery time from full mouth dental implant surgery can vary. Total recovery time, including any necessary restorative work, can take several months.   

The number of implants needed for a full mouth restoration can vary, but a common method known as fixed, full-arch uses four strategically placed implants to support a full arch prosthesis.

Yes, one of the key benefits of full mouth dental implants is that they restore the function of your natural teeth. This means you can eat and speak normally without the discomfort or inconvenience of conventional dentures.

Full mouth dental implants can significantly improve the appearance of your smile by replacing missing teeth with beautiful prosthetics that look like the real thing. Additionally, because they are anchored in the jawbone, they help to support your facial structure and prevent bone loss—two benefits that are not available to conventional denture wearers.
