So, basically, a lot of people visualize a full mouth of dental implants as one implant per tooth. What we actually do is replace the entirety of your teeth with four to six implants on the upper, four to six implants on the lower, and we make you a set of teeth that screws in and is permanent. Now, we do this under IV sedation. You get your teeth right away, and it’s a great way to get your confidence back, get your chewing back, and to just, you know, have a much better quality of life. So replacing your teeth with dental implants and a new set of teeth can have many effects on your life.
First of all, if you need it and you have broken down teeth, there’s infection in your jaw. You need to remove that infection, get those unhealthy teeth out so your body can heal. Putting in the implants and getting that new set of teeth is not only going to make you healthier, but it’s going to make you more confident. It’s going to give you a much better quality of life in the short term, in the long term, and there’s really no better treatment when it comes to replacing teeth. A denture will give you about 20% of your chewing back. The dental implants will give you 80% of your chewing back. That is extremely strong. You can eat whatever you like, and you’re going to get the closest thing you can find to your real teeth.
