Dental implant
treatment changes lives

Full mouth dental implant surgery and traditional dentures are both treatment options for replacing missing teeth, but they have significant differences. Dental implants are much more secure than dentures because they’re surgically placed into the jawbone. Unlike traditional dentures, which are removable and rest on the gums, full mouth dental implants are permanently fixed. Implants also look and function like your natural teeth, helping to provide you with a better quality of life.

Full mouth dental implants–the titanium implants that anchor into your mouth – can last more than 25+ years, with proper care and maintenance. Care for dental implants includes keeping good oral hygiene practices like regular brushing and water flossing, as well as attending routine check-ups with your dentist. While the implants themselves have longevity, it’s possible that the full arches may require replacement depending on the materials selected for the prosthesis. Some materials have risk of wear, chipping or fracture, while zirconia arches have a life-time warranty against chipping, or fracture.

Total recovery time after surgery make take several days to a couple of weeks, but from recovery to the end of restorative treatment may take several months.

The number of implants needed for a full mouth restoration can vary, but a common method known as fixed, full-arch uses four strategically placed implants to support a full arch prosthesis.

Yes, one of the key benefits of full mouth dental implants is that they can restore some of the function your natural teeth once provided. This means you can eat and speak normally without the discomfort or inconvenience of conventional dentures.

Full mouth dental implants can significantly improve the appearance of your smile by replacing missing teeth with beautiful prosthetics that look like the real thing. Additionally, because they are anchored in the jawbone, they help to support your facial structure and prevent bone loss—two benefits that are not available to conventional denture wearers.

The cost for full mouth dental implants depends on a few things, like your unique dental needs and the materials used. However, your care team will provide you with a simple, all-in-one price that covers every step of treatment. And to make things even more manageable, we’re proud to work with third-party financing providers to help you afford dental implants.

Fixed implant dentures are permanently attached to implants, while removable implant dentures can be snapped on and off for easy cleaning and maintenance. The implants are the permanent part, with the dentures being the removable part.

The procedure involves several visits over a few months, including a free consultation at ClearChoice, the implant placement, and the denture attachment.

Yes, they provide enhanced comfort and stability compared to conventional dentures.

The implant denture can be removed and cleaned and then snapped back into position in the mouth. Regular brushing, and dental visits are essential for maintaining oral health and the longevity of your implant dentures.

A single tooth dental implant is a permanent solution for replacing a missing tooth. It consists of a titanium post that is placed into the jawbone, which acts as an artificial root for a crown that looks and functions like a natural tooth.

The procedure typically takes several months from start to finish. This includes the initial free consultation, implant placement, healing period for osseointegration (where the implant conforms to the jawbone), and final placement of the crown.

At ClearChoice, we offer a variety of pain-management options. Post-treatment discomfort can be managed with prescribed and over-the-counter pain medication and typically subsides within a few days.

Caring for a single tooth dental implant is similar to caring for natural teeth. Regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups are essential to maintain the implant's health and longevity. Your ClearChoice doctor will provide specific care instructions.

Yes, you can get multiple dental implants at once. The prosthodontist will work closely with the oral surgeon to ensure treatment is properly planned out for your unique needs. Your new treatment plan will address multiple missing teeth in one or more sessions, depending on your overall health and dental condition. Call your local ClearChoice Dental Implant Center® to learn more about the process.

Recovery time varies for each patient, but generally, it takes about a week to begin the initial recovery process. Full integration of the implants with the jawbone, known as osseointegration, can take several months. Your doctor will provide you with a specific home-care care routine to ensure proper healing.

Implant supported bridges are an investment, but the long-term results can be worth it. And at ClearChoice, we offer flexible payment options and third-party financing to make affording dental implants even easier.
