Who considers full mouth implants?
People missing most or all teeth, those with many failing teeth, and denture wearers who want fixed teeth.
Planning matters
A CBCT scan, photographs and bite records help determine how many implants are needed, where they go and whether immediate temporary teeth are possible.
About 'teeth in days'
Some patients can receive a provisional fixed bridge within days of surgery when implant stability is sufficient. Others need a staged approach. This is a clinical decision made after assessment.
Living with full-arch teeth
Expect an adjustment period for eating and speaking, a soft diet initially, and regular professional maintenance.
Questions to ask
How many implants? What material will the final bridge be? What is included in the cost? What happens if an implant does not integrate?
