Full Mouth Implants

An implant-supported full bridge or full denture can take the place of all your lost teeth. Your missing natural teeth and portions of the roots will be replaced by dental implants.

What benefits over traditional dentures do implant-supported dentures and complete bridges have?

Compared to other methods of replacing missing teeth, dental implants have several benefits. Implant-supported complete bridges or dentures are made to endure a lifetime in addition to having a natural appearance and functionality. You can maintain a more natural ability to bite and chew thanks to implant-supported complete bridges and dentures, which are also more stable and pleasant than traditional dentures.

Furthermore, your bone is better conserved because full bridges and dentures supported by implants will replace a portion of your tooth roots. The bone that formerly encircled the tooth roots starts to resorb (deteriorate) with traditional dentures. Dental implants blend in with your mandible, maintaining the integrity and health of the bone.

Over time, implants may prove to be more maintenance-free and aesthetically pleasing than traditional dentures. Conventional dentures cause bone loss, which results in the recession of the jawbone and an unsightly, collapsed grin. Eating certain foods is made more difficult with conventional dentures.

Artificial teeth are anchored in the jaw by implants.

What is the plan for implant placement?

Initially, screws or cylinder-shaped implants are inserted into your jaw. After that, the implants and the bone are allowed to fuse over the following two to six months to provide anchors for your replacement teeth. A temporary tooth replacement solution can be worn over the implant locations during this period.

The process frequently requires a second step to expose the implants and attach extensions. The foundation for your new teeth will be completed by these temporary healing caps and different connecting devices that enable several crowns to join the implants. After this operation, you will have a few weeks to enable your gums to heal.

Certain one-stage implant systems can be used without the need for this additional step. The extension piece is already attached to the implant used in these systems. Your finest option for a system will be recommended by your periodontist.

The connection device that will hold your new teeth can either be clipped to a bar or spherical ball anchor that a denture snaps on and off, or it can be tightened down on the implant, depending on how many implants are placed.

Ultimately, complete dentures or bridges will be made for you and fastened to tiny metal posts known as abutments, or connecting elements. You’ll soon feel like you can eat and talk again, and your grin will be more confident.

Since each case is unique, certain of these procedures may be combined when circumstances allow. Together, you and your dental expert will decide on the best course of action.
