A full mouth restoration or treatment is a term used to describe dental procedures that help to restore teeth in both the patient's upper and lower jaws.
Like any other dental procedure, the very first step is to be diagnosed by a professional. Your mouth will be examined by your dentist to determine the extent of the problem and the treatment options that can be used to bring your natural smile back.

Full-mouth dental implants are the very best way to restore appearance, structure, and function like healthy natural teeth. Dental Implants are metal posts that are surgically positioned to replace tooth roots.
With these implants, the dentist will be able to put teeth to replace your smile.
Implants are attached directly to the jawbone.
In the initial visit, the implants will be placed, and a temporary crown. When the dental implant has successfully osseointegrated with the jawbone, usually takes from 4 to 6 months.

Full Mouth dental implants vs. Traditional Dentures
Nowadays, full-mouth dental implants are becoming more and more popular, especially in the lower jaw. Unlike traditional dentures, full mouth implants, also known as “supported dentures” are stable and stay in place permanently.

However, dentures often affect the quality of life of some people because of the lack of stability, as well as the inconveniences of using them.
Some of the challenges associated with complete removable dentures are:
• Bone loss over time. Results in a denture that is loose-fitting, and has less support and suction. Unfortunately, the more the bone deteriorates the more sunken in the cheeks become.

• Denture sores. Ill-fitting or loose dentures, as a result of the jawbone changes, shape, and shrinks.
• Limitations to eating favorite foods. There are a few things you’ll need to avoid as hard foods, hot liquids, and sticky foods.
• Movement of dentures with speech or eating.
