Full Jaw Implants

Full Jaw Implants (Replacing all of your teeth):

If you have lost all of your teeth an implant supported full bridge or full denture can replace them.Traditional Complete Dentures are nothing but ‘oral wigs’ that cause trauma to the underlying bone causing it to resorb (shrink) giving the denture wearer and old persons look.

An implant supported full bridge preserves the bone volume preventing resorption, and facial muscle collapse and premature facial wrinkles.

Implant Supported Fixed Bridges (A Step by Step Procedure)
1. Before the procedure
Dr.Turner and associates determine what needs to be done and prepares 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, he and his team have placed five implants .Temporary teeth are attached that enable you to eat and function like normal while waiting for the permanent bridge to be installed.
3. Attaching 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. End result
Your new teeth should be hard to tell from natural teeth 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.

Implant Supported Dentures:
An alternative to a fixed bridge is a removable overdenture, which is anchored on implants. The old fashioned denture has many disadvantages and should be avoided if possible.

Removable, implant anchored overdenture
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.
