Loss of natural teeth can make eating and speaking painful and challenging and damage your smile, confidence, and self-esteem. It can also lead to shifting adjacent teeth, painful bite misalignment, bone loss and associated facial changes, and an increased risk of gum disease. Our board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon, Dr. Michael Hashemian, has restored patients’ smiles and lives for 25 years and is skilled in placing implants using our All-on-4 to 6 full arch protocols.
This streamlined approach enables the placement of a temporary full mouth prosthesis on the same day as surgery. When you choose Dentofacial & Cosmetic Surgery Institute for full mouth dental implants in Spring Hill, FL, Lecanto, FL, Land O’ Lakes, FL, and Clearwater, FL, you’ll rediscover the pleasure of eating your favorite foods and experience a remarkable boost to your quality of life!
Traditional dentures require nightly removal for cleaning and a combination of denture adhesive and suction to stay in place. Because they sit on top of your gums, conventional dentures tend to slip, click, and even fall out occasionally. Dentures can accelerate bone loss as they often become loose and rub against the bony ridge, gradually wearing it away. Frequent denture relining is required to restore a snug and comfortable fit. Progressive bone loss can also result in the characteristic sunken-in facial appearance many people associate with dentures. On the other hand, once titanium dental implants fuse with your underlying bone, they provide a strong foundation for new teeth, help prevent bone loss, stimulate new growth, and only require the same oral care as natural teeth.
All-on-X full arch dental implants in Spring Hill, FL, Lecanto, FL, Land O’ Lakes, FL, and Clearwater, FL, offer unsurpassed flexibility because this protocol can be modified if you require four plus implants per arch. Dr. Hashemian places six implants in the upper arch and five in the lower arch to ensure superb stability, function, and peace of mind that can last a lifetime. As an oral surgeon and medical doctor, Dr. Hashemian is certified to administer general anesthesia and IV sedation safely in the comfort of his dental offices. Like countless other patients who received full mouth dental implants at Dentofacial & Cosmetic Surgery Institute, you may not even realize you underwent surgery when you wake up!
Living with total tooth loss for a long time can lead to severe jawbone atrophy. If you’re not eligible for grafting surgery due to age, health conditions, or budget constraints, All-on-4 to 6, Teeth Tomorrow®, or Hybridge® full mouth dental implants may be the ideal solution. When you entrust your missing smile to the Dentofacial & Cosmetic Surgery Institute, Dr. Hashemian will evaluate your suitability for dental implants based on age, oral health, and general health and discuss everything you need to know about the process. Although most patients are candidates for full arch dental implants even if they have bone loss, several issues can jeopardize the likelihood of a successful outcome.
Periodontal disease is a leading risk factor when it comes to the failure of dental implants, so your gums must be free of any signs of active disease before getting full mouth dental implants. Good oral hygiene after dental implant surgery is essential for preventing an inflammatory disease called peri-implantitis. Smoking can cause dental implant failure because it restricts blood flow to your gums and slows the healing process. Being a smoker doesn’t make you ineligible for full arch dental implants. Still, we recommend quitting several weeks before surgery until the dental implants have fused with your underlying bone (osseointegration takes three to six months). Last, although uncontrolled diabetes, osteoporosis, jaw radiation, and certain medications may not exclude candidacy for full mouth dental implants, certain precautions must be followed to ensure a successful outcome.
Getting full mouth dental implants isn’t a decision to take lightly because doing so is a significant investment in your long-term health and happiness. Full arch dental implants can provide a transformative solution to end your daily struggles with missing or failing teeth, ill-fitting dentures, or no teeth at all.
As an oral surgeon, medical doctor, and experienced implantologist, Dr. Hashemian has the skills and knowledge to ensure meticulous, precise, and comfortable dental implant surgery and superb long-term outcomes. In addition to competitive prices, he stands behind his work with a one-year full warranty.
