Full Mouth Dental Implants - Morrisville, Durham, & Raleigh, NC
A Solution for Better Oral Health and Aesthetics
If you have missing teeth, this can impact your ability to eat a well-balanced diet, cause adjacent teeth to shift, and increase your risk of gum disease. Tooth loss can negatively affect facial features and symmetry due to underlying jawbone deterioration.
In addition, if you’re edentulous (toothless), you may feel embarrassed, become more withdrawn, and interact with others less frequently. The good news is you no longer have to struggle with these issues with transformative full mouth dental implants in Durham, NC, Raleigh, NC, and Morrisville, NC, from our skilled periodontist and implant dentist!
Traditional dentures are held in place with suction and adhesives, and bone loss continues, so they tend to slip, shift, irritate your gums, and negatively impact chewing and talking. In addition, dentures are fabricated from acrylic, plastic, and metal, which can cause gum inflammation or sensitivity. Full mouth dental implants are made from biocompatible titanium or zirconia, so after they fully integrate with your jawbone, they assume the role of your missing tooth roots, and you’ll never have to worry again about instability.
Full mouth dental implants at Periodontics and Dental Implants of North Carolina can support an upper, lower, or full mouth prosthesis. The All-on-X, full arch dental implants protocol, offers greater customization than the All-on-4 to 6 techniques, enabling our periodontist to place four to eight implants per arch for increased stability. The implants are carefully positioned and angled in areas of your jawbone with greater density and strength, reducing or eliminating the need for preliminary bone grafting.
Full arch dental implants in Durham, NC, Raleigh, NC, and Morrisville, NC, are an ideal option if you have many missing or failing teeth or wear traditional dentures and are unhappy with their downsides. Most people have sufficient jawbone to support a full prosthesis with the All-on-X full arch dental implant protocol. Still, our periodontist is skilled in bone regeneration techniques to help you qualify, assuming you’re in good oral health otherwise.
Before getting full arch dental implants, your mouth must be free of gum and other oral health diseases to prevent implant failure . Healthy gum tissue is essential for dental implants to fuse with your underlying bone, and maintaining excellent oral hygiene during healing is crucial. Tobacco use is associated with a higher risk of implant failure, so we recommend refraining from smoking for a few months before surgery and until the implants have fully integrated with your underlying bone.
