Full Mouth Dental Implants

When the majority of your teeth are damaged or missing, whole mouth tooth replacement may be necessary. This comprehensive treatment involves removing any remaining natural teeth and replacing your entire upper and lower dental arches with new prosthetic teeth.

What Are Full Mouth Implants?

Full mouth dental implants are a comprehensive solution for replacing all of the teeth in the jaw. As with All-On-4® or All-on-X, this procedure involves surgically placing four or more titanium screws into each of the upper or lower jawbone to act as the roots of your new teeth. 

Special abutments are used so that a temporary set of replacement teeth can be placed the same day. After about six months, once your jaw has adapted to the implants, the permanent replacement prosthetic teeth will be placed.  This provides a permanent, stable solution with dramatically increased bite strength and longevity.

Full Mouth Dental Implants vs. Dentures

The most common alternative to full mouth dental implants are old-fashioned dentures that sit on top of the gums where the missing teeth were. They can be uncomfortable, affect your ability to experience the full taste of food, cause sore gums, and shift and click in your mouth when you speak, eat, smile, yawn or cough. 

Other considerations

  • While the initial costs of dentures may be low, they only last an average of 7 to 15 years, and the replacement costs can be significant over the long term. 
  • Dentures require a daily cleaning routine: removal, cleaning after meals, and overnight soaking
  • The bite function of dentures is approximately ~30% of the function of natural teeth.
  • With a partial denture, the natural bone underneath a complete denture may deteriorate over time, leading to facial collapse and an aged appearance.

In contrast, full mouth dental implants offer significant benefits compared to traditional dentures: 

  • Implants look extremely natural, while also providing exceptional durability and longevity. 
  • Implants support your natural biting and chewing  habits, and allow you to eat foods that may be challenging with removable dentures.
  • Maintenance of dental implants are the same as with your natural teeth – standard brushing and flossing.
  • Full mouth implants help maintain jawbone integrity by replacing tooth roots. Implants actively stimulate and integrate with the jawbone, preserving bone density and maintaining your facial structure and natural smile aesthetics over time.

Procedure day. The first step will be anesthesia for a safe, pain-free experience. We remove damaged teeth and tissue, then place implants with surgical precision. We then use advanced 3D scanning and photogrammetry to create the most precise fit for your prosthetic.

With this information, our on-site lab 3D prints your prosthetic while you recover. On the same day or next, we will deliver your full arch implant prosthesis.

Recovery and aftercare. It is common to experience discomfort and some pain in the first week post-surgery. In addition to eating soft foods, we encourage you to rest and maintain good oral hygiene. We will see you at the 1 week, 1 month and 3 months mark to evaluate your healing.

Final permanent teeth. At around 3-month post-procedure, once the bones have fused to the implants and your healing is complete, we will take new records and then print a new prototype try-in. Once you are happy with the prototype, we then finalize and create your permanent teeth, which we will install 1-2 weeks later.
