The Best Solution for Patients with Missing Teeth

The patient had implants placed in his upper and lower jaws to replace teeth that were lost due to severe decay and periodontal disease. Full-mouth dental implant restorations made from high-strength zirconia were attached to the implants, providing improved comfort, confidence and quality of life.

I can’t even express how confident and satisfied I am with my smile now. My friends and family don’t even notice that they aren’t my real teeth because of how natural they look.

The placement of dental implants to support a full-mouth zirconia restoration is the premium option for patients who have lost all of their upper or lower teeth:

  • Restores the look, feel and chewing capability of natural teeth
  • Preserves the facial bone structure to reduce aging
  • With proper care, the implants and zirconia restoration can last a lifetime

Four or more implants are placed to support a dental restoration that permanently attaches to the jaw like natural teeth. After completing treatment, patients are able to chew and eat comfortably, smile with confidence, and easily care for their new teeth.

Talk to your dentist to learn more or get started with full-mouth dental implants.
