Full mouth dental implant treatment is carried out when all the teeth are missing in one jaw or both jaws. In full mouth treatment with dental implants are placed in one or both jaws and teeth anchored on them. The teeth can either be fixed ceramic teeth or removable teeth with overdentures. Some of the benefits of full mouth dental implants are as follows

What are the benefits of full mouth dental implants?

Full mouth dental implants involve placement of 6-8 dental implants per jaw to anchor fixed teeth made up of acrylic or ceramic. The benefits of full mouth dental implants can be divided into functional benefits and cosmetic benefits

What are the functional benefits of full mouth dental implants?

As the teeth are fixed, the chewing ability is as good as natural teeth. Thus it is much better than removable dentures or implant-supported overdentures. The bone and jaw contours are also maintained

What are the cosmetic benefits of full mouth implants?

Full mouth implants are more natural than other types of dental prostheses. Since the final result is similar to the natural teeth the cosmetic results are excellent. The ability to custom colour and shade ceramic teeth gives the advantage of improved esthetics

What are the benefits of All-on-4 implants?

All-on-4 dental implants have many advantages over conventional full mouth dental implants. The all-on-4 dental implants are more economical than the conventional full mouth dental implants. The all-on-4 dental implants need only 4 implants in comparison to the full mouth dental implants. The less number of implants also results in quicker and faster surgical procedures. Most of the times the teeth can be fixed immediately resulting in quicker chewing for the patient.
