Full-Jaw (Fixed-bridge) Dental Implants

Before dental implants, there were no permanent solution available for people who lost all their teeth. Today, it is possible to replace a full jaw with dental implants and a fixed bridge that results in a permanent, stable and high esthetic solution that would:

Let you eat and function like having natural teeth
Provide a solid, stable solution that will serve you for life
Preserve your facial appearance and prevent bone loss

Benefits of a fixed porcelain bridge on implants, when all teeth are missing or in such condition that they need to be replaced, a fixed bridge anchored to dental implants is your best permanent solution.

The treatment procedure and number of visits is largely dependent on the specific conditions. With some modern esthetic dentistry treatments the entire treatment can take only 3-4 patient visits. Using a conventional treatment approach, the treatment can take 8-10 visits. Most clients report that they were much more comfortable following the procedure than they had anticipated.

STEP-BY-STEP PROCEDURES

1. Before the procedure The dentist determines what needs to be done and prepares both himself and the patient for the coming treatment procedure.

2. Installing the implants The first step is installing dental implants to replace the lost tooth roots. In this case, five implants are used. Temporary teeth are attached that enable you to eat and function like normal while waiting for the permanent bridge to be installed.

3. Attaching the bridge The final bridge is securely installed on top of the implants. With a full jaw replacement like this, it normally takes 2-3 visits to have the bridge completely attached.

4. The end result Your new teeth should be hard to tell from natural - both for you and others. People who have had traditional dentures before getting a fixed bridge often describe this as an overwhelming and very positive experience.

Removable Dentures over Implants

Life with a full denture means more than just missing your teeth. Problems associated with a denture extend far beyond tooth loss, affecting comfort, ability to chew foods, even self-image and social considerations. The challenge is to provide stable function, without using denture adhesive, that will fulfill your expectations for appearance, confidence and security.

A removable full denture that is connected to either a ball or bar attachment, which in turn is anchored on two or more implants in the front part of the jaw.

The implants help keep the denture in place and provide better function and comfort. Cost is usually the reason why this solution is chosen over a fixed bridge - although the end result can't be compared.

The treatment procedure and number of visits is largely dependent on the specific conditions. Normally, the treatment can take 4-6 visits. Most clients report that they were much more comfortable following the procedure than they had anticipated.

STEP-BY-STEP PROCEDURES

Step 1 The first step is to replace missing roots by placing the titanium implants. 2-4 implants will remain covered underneath the gum for approximately one to six months. During that time, osseointegration takes place.

Step 2 The second step of the procedure involves uncovering the implants and attaching extensions. Later in treatment, a bar will be affixed to these extensions, completing the foundation on which your removable restoration will be placed.

Step 3 The final step is the placement of your restoration. With techniques that ensure optimal size, shape, color and fit, this removable restoration will blend with your facial characteristics, while providing support needed for a natural appearance. You’re free to enjoy life.
