Missing most or all of your teeth can affect more than just your smile. It can impact how you eat, speak, and feel about yourself. Full mouth dental implants offer a permanent, natural-looking solution that restores both function and confidence. At Great Florida Smiles & Orthodontics, full mouth implant treatment is carefully planned using advanced technology to deliver predictable, long-lasting results.
If you are considering full mouth dental implants, understanding the cost, procedure, and what to expect can help you make an informed decision.
What Are Full-Mouth Dental Implants?
Full mouth dental implants replace an entire upper arch, lower arch, or both using dental implants anchored securely in the jawbone. Instead of replacing each tooth individually, a set of strategically placed implants supports a full arch of fixed teeth.
These implant-supported teeth look, feel, and function like natural teeth. They do not slip or shift like traditional dentures and help preserve jawbone structure over time.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Full Mouth Implants?
Full mouth dental implants may be ideal if you:
- Are you missing most or all of your teeth
- Wear loose or uncomfortable dentures
- Have failing teeth that need extraction
- Want a fixed, non-removable solution
- Are you looking for long-term oral health stability
Even patients with bone loss may still qualify with treatments such as bone grafting or guided implant placement. A detailed evaluation is always the first step.
The Full Mouth Dental Implant Procedure
1. Comprehensive Consultation and Planning
Your journey begins with a thorough consultation at Great Florida Smiles & Orthodontics. The dentist evaluates your oral health, reviews your medical history, and discusses your goals.
Advanced tools such as 3D CBCT imaging and digital planning allow the team to assess bone density, nerve positioning, and implant placement accuracy. This step ensures safety, precision, and predictable results.
2. Tooth Removal and Implant Placement
If damaged or failing teeth are present, they may be removed during the same visit as implant placement. A specific number of implants are strategically positioned in the jawbone to support the full arch.
Local anesthesia is used, and sedation options may be available for comfort. Many patients are surprised by how manageable the procedure feels.
3. Temporary Teeth Placement
In many cases, patients leave the office with a set of temporary teeth on the same day. These allow you to smile and eat soft foods while the implants heal and fuse with the bone.
This healing phase, known as osseointegration, typically takes several months and is critical to long-term implant success.
4. Final Restoration
Once healing is complete, your final custom teeth are placed. These restorations are designed to match your facial structure, bite, and aesthetic preferences.
The result is a stable, natural-looking smile that restores confidence and function.
What to Expect During Recovery?
Recovery after full mouth dental implants varies from patient to patient. Most people experience mild swelling, soreness, or bruising for a few days, which is manageable with medication and rest.
You will be advised to:
- Eat soft foods initially
- Maintain gentle oral hygiene
- Avoid smoking during healing
- Attend follow-up visits for monitoring
Most patients return to normal activities within a few days and adapt quickly to their new teeth.
Cost of Full Mouth Dental Implants
The cost of full mouth dental implants depends on several factors, including:
- Number of implants needed
- Type of implant system used
- Need for extractions or bone grafting
- Complexity of the case
- Materials used for the final teeth
While full mouth implants are a significant investment, they are often more cost-effective over time than replacing or repairing dentures and failing teeth repeatedly.
During your consultation, Great Florida Smiles & Orthodontics provides a clear, personalized treatment plan with transparent pricing and available financing options.
Advantages of Full-Mouth Dental Implants
Permanent and Stable
Implants are fixed in place and do not move, offering stability similar to natural teeth.
Natural Look and Feel
Custom restorations are designed to look realistic and complement your facial features.
Improved Chewing and Speech
Patients can enjoy a wider variety of foods and speak clearly without worry.
Preserves Jawbone Health
Implants stimulate the jawbone, helping prevent bone loss and facial sagging.
Low Maintenance
Unlike dentures, implants do not require adhesives and are cared for like natural teeth.
How Full Mouth Implants Compare to Dentures?
Traditional dentures rest on the gums and may shift, cause sore spots, or limit food choices. Full mouth dental implants are anchored into the jawbone, providing superior comfort, function, and confidence.
For many patients, implants offer a life-changing upgrade from removable dentures.
