While dentures and implants are the fundamental purpose of replacing missing teeth, fixed implants stand out as the superior choice for various compelling reasons. Dentures rest on the gums, contributing to jawbone deterioration over time and resulting in premature aging marked by sunken facial features. Dentures also shift and move due to jawbone deterioration, causing discomfort and inflammation. In contrast, full mouth dental implants provide a lasting solution by securely anchoring to the jaw through surgically implanted titanium posts, ensuring stability even after decades of use.
Dentures often require dietary restrictions and ongoing maintenance, leading to significant cumulative costs. Although full arch dental implants may involve a higher initial investment, their strength, durability, prolonged lifespan, and minimal maintenance requirements make them a more cost-effective option in the long run. With full arch dental implants, you regain the freedom to enjoy your favorite foods, and their upkeep is as straightforward as regular brushing and flossing, mirroring the care routine of your natural teeth!
Most patients qualify for full arch dental implants with today’s minimally invasive techniques, provided they have overall stable health. Adequate bone structure is essential for optimal implant function and longevity, although patients with significant bone loss may require additional procedures to rebuild the necessary foundation.
Severe bone loss can occasionally compromise outcomes with full mouth dental implants. Certain medical conditions, such as bleeding disorders, immunosuppressive medications, and active periodontal disease, may necessitate alternative approaches to rebuilding a patient’s smile. Rizkalla Dental Associates is dedicated to collaboratively addressing and resolving any issues, ensuring that patients receive the care they deserve for the best possible oral health.
Many patients assume that full arch dental implants are financially out of reach. Still, our streamlined approach allows for solid results with a few implant posts, speeding up healing and reducing overall costs. While dentures have a lower initial price, full mouth dental implants prove cost-effective over time, requiring minimal upkeep and offering long-lasting function and appearance.
