How is the process of complete mouth restoration going?
What does Complete mouth restoration mean? This treatment is needed when all teeth are missing or unsuitable for dental care due to their poor condition. Complete dentures (for upper and lower jaws) fixed In this case, implant-based fixed dentures are made for both lower and upper jawbone. “Fixed” means that the denture is glued to the one-phase immediate loading implants with special glue. So the patient can not remove it. The procedure yields an incredible transformation, and it’s a long-term solution to keep your mouth at its healthiest state.
The benefits of complete mouth restoration include improved oral health and functionality and getting rid of aesthetic flaws. In addition to all this, whole mouth restoration helps resolve several dental issues. Since the implant resembles and acts just like your natural tooth root, it gives you back your original biting and chewing functionality and helps you keep your health on track with proper nutrition.
Among all the therapeutic procedures available for complete mouth restoration, the one-phase, immediate loading implants are undoubtedly promising. In our opinion, it is a better solution than the two-phase conventional dental implants. However, both of the therapeutic procedures serve the same purpose. However, there’s a significant difference between implantation techniques. In a one-phase implantation procedure, an implant can be implemented right after removing untreatable teeth. Earlier, this was just not possible with two-phased implant procedures. Thus, the technique has revolutionized the implant procedure and significantly minimizes the time and cost involved, especially in the case of complete mouth restoration.
The good news is that complete mouth restoration with immediate loading implants can be a solution for almost everyone! As we have emphasized in our previous writings, these implants can also use for those with bone deficiency and inadequate bone density. So, beyond the fact that oral rehabilitation (lower and upper dentures) is complete in less than five days. The great advantage of a one-phase implant is that it is feasible for patients with severe bone deficiency.
How’s the process of complete mouth restoration with one-phase Implants? Using a one-phase implant (immediate loading implant) is a straightforward process that doesn’t require bone grafting or sinus lift treatment. It is still applicable in significant bone deficiency and is less traumatic than the conventional two-phase one. The full mouth restoration with one-phase implants has a high success ratio, and 98 % of the time, the procedure is achieved within five days.
The process of complete mouth restoration consists of the following key steps
- Implantation – Remove all unsuitable teeth for prosthetic care, implant the needed number of one-phase implants, and take an impression on dentures.
- Frame Fitting – Fit the metal frame that carries teeth on the dentures.
- Denture Fitting – Fit & adjust the long-term temporary dentures.
- Installation – Setting up long-term temporary dentures.
- Checkup – This is a spare day, and any final adjustments that may be necessary
Why is it necessary to have a long-term temporary denture instead of making a permanent denture right away? The temporary dentures are made immediately after the tooth removal and implantation process. They are the option to help ease your mouth into wearing a denture. The creation process of a long-term temporary denture is the same as a permanent denture. Its sole purpose is to completely heal the gum, which usually takes 4-6 months, and improve your biting impression.
The key benefits of the temporary denture are not so hard to determine – It allows you to gain back your oral fluency; right after removing teeth and doing the implantation, you get back to enjoying the food you love to eat. The only expert advice you need to mug up here is, don’t put too much pressure or strain onto your temporary dentures. Once your permanent denture is ready, you’ll experience gentle wearing, and you’ll be able to lead a life with a better smile. (The price paid for the complete mouth restoration does not include the cost of the permanent denture!)
What exactly do we mean by long-term? We give a six-month warranty on temporary dentures, but that doesn’t mean the dentures can only use for six months. We have a patient who has been using their temporary dentures for two years without any complaints.
The one-phase implant is a life-changing procedure for many people that performs just like your natural teeth. It is promising because of its fast healing time and insignificant surgical intervention. The treatment is less expensive than in the case of conventional two-phase implants that save you from 4-6 months of bone healing time.
There is a relatively simple answer to the question in the title, what should I do if I think complete mouth restoration may be the solution for me. The most obvious option is to seek the opinion of our dentist, on the one hand, as to whether this is the best solution for you, and on the other, to offer you an experienced implantologist.
The other option is to research the internet. Every oral surgeon for something has a website worth studying and even asking for a quote. The given oral surgeon should take care to use immediate loading implants. At present, the vast majority of implantologist use conventional two-phase implants. All that has been said in this writing applies only to one-phase, immediate loading implants.
