Full Mouth Implant Treatment is the best method of replacing all the teeth in one jaw or the entire mouth (both jaws). Full mouth implant is easily the most difficult of all dental treatments. Precision is the key to success.
What is a Full Mouth Treatment?
A full mouth treatment using dental implants is an effective option where there is a need to replace all teeth. A full mouth implant treatment is the only way to fully restore appearance, comfort, and function when compared to healthy natural teeth.
A full mouth treatment typically consists of:
- The diagnostic and planning stages take several weeks (x-rays, CT scans, diagnostic mock-ups, virtual planning, smile design, etc).
- The placement of six to eight dental implants in the upper jaw
- Four to six implants in the lower jaw
- Fabrication of fixed temporary bridge(s)
- Durable, natural-looking porcelain teeth that are fixed to these implants by dental cement or screws
What Can I Expect From a Full Mouth Treatment?
The extent of your treatment process can depend on your condition and preferences, but it begins with the placement of dental implants in the jawbone. Modern technology allows us to place fixed temporary bridges on the implants on the day of implant placement. This technology provides us a very easy transition from bad teeth or no teeth to a beautiful set of temporary teeth all in one visit. The final, permanent implant bridges will fully restore function and comfort. It is the very best option for all of dentistry.
How Can I Maintain My New Teeth?
Cleaning of Fixed Implant Bridges and Full Mouth Implant Bridges is the same as natural teeth. By brushing, flossing, using a Waterpik and regular dental hygiene patients can easily maintain their new teeth. Implants do not decay, so, though we don’t recommend it, homecare is less important than with teeth.
