Experience Comfort and Confidence with Full-Mouth Dental Implants

If many of your teeth are infected, loose or even already missing, what should you do? Removable dentures are clearly the most inexpensive full-mouth tooth replacement option. But dentures can slip. And they require special adhesive to keep them secure before you attempt to eat.

Dentures need to be removed every night and plopped into a special cleaning solution. They periodontally require adjustment and may need replacement. The process of eating is far from simple —certain foods, like steak, are impossible to chew. And dentures do nothing to help keep your facial structure in place.

Restore Your Smile With Dental Implants

Dental implants are today’s most powerful and popular tooth replacement solution. In addition to improving your confidence and overall lifestyle, here are FIVE MORE BENEFITS for choosing full-mouth dental implants to replace missing or failing teeth:

• They’re Easy to Keep Clean: With dental implants, caring for your replacement teeth can be as simple as caring for your natural teeth. You never remove them.

• Your New Smile Should Last a Lifetime: Dental implants are successful of up to 98% of the time. The high-quality implant posts we use fuse directly with your jawline, becoming sturdy replacement teeth roots.  Your new smile can be easily protected by avoiding nail biting or eating hard candy, or by proactively wearing a nightguard (for teeth grinders) or mouthguard (sports enthusiasts). Visiting your dental professionals as suggested and adhering to proper at-home brushing and flossing should keep your new smile in great shape.

• You May Improve Your Overall Health: Poor oral health from gum (periodontal) disease has been associated with worse whole-body health. Numerous clinical studies show relationships between gum disease and heart and lung diseases, stroke, diabetes, and other negative conditions. Removing hopelessly failing teeth, treating gum disease infection, and replacing full arches with dental implants may improve your smile and systemic health.

• Your Jawbone Health Stops Deteriorating: Removable bridges and dentures may replace the look of teeth, but they sit on top of your gums and don’t stimulate the jawbone like teeth roots do. When your tooth roots fail, you may experience facial collapse.  Dental implant posts act like natural tooth roots to help you maintain the height of your smile.

• Your Eating Experience is SO Much Better: With dentures, you’re limited as to the kinds of foods you can chew, a negative situation that can cause nutritional deficits. Dental implant-supported, full-mouth bridges let you chew and eat the foods you love with no messy adhesive and no uncomfortable palate on the roof of your mouth covering taste buds.

Let’s Build a Plan —and Your New Smile

At South Florida Center for Periodontics & Implant Dentistry, we never assume there’s a one-size-fits-all solution to repairing your smile. We’ll thoroughly diagnosis your situation, discuss your health history and, together, decide what kind of dental implant configuration we might suggest.

Full-mouth implants can mean a permanent bridge affixed to your jawbone by a handful of implant posts, depending on how much healthy bone you have. If you still have some healthy teeth, we’ll do our best to save them and place implants only where needed if it makes sense from a health and budget perspective.
