Basics of Full Mouth Dental Implants
Dental implants are a permanent solution for replacing missing teeth.
They consist of three main parts :
- The Implant
is a titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone, where it fuses with the bone through a process
- The Abutment
connects the implant to the crown
- The Crown
is the visible, tooth-like part of the implant.
Implants provide numerous benefits compared to other tooth replacement options like dentures or bridges. They look, feel, and function like natural teeth, prevent bone loss, and can last a lifetime with proper care.
Why Full Mouth Dental Implants?
Full mouth dental implants are an ideal solution for individuals who have lost all or most of their teeth due to decay, gum disease, or trauma. They can dramatically improve your quality of life by:
- Restoring your ability to eat a wide variety of foods comfortably
- Improving your speech and overall oral health
- Providing a more natural-looking and comfortable alternative to dentures
- Preventing further bone loss in the jaw
- Boosting your self-confidence and overall well-being
Different Types of Full Mouth Dental Implants
There are several options available for full mouth dental implants. Here are the most common ones:
- All-on-4® or All-on-X Dental Implants: This is a method of placing full mouth dental implants that requires four (or sometimes more) implants to be placed in the jawbone in a way where they’ll be able to maximize the use of available bone. Read here for more information on All-on-4®.
- Zygomatic Dental Implants: These implants are used for those who have experienced significant bone loss in the upper jaw. The implants themselves are longer and are anchored into the cheek bones for support where the jaw bone can’t provide it.
- Other options supported by dental implants: If you choose to opt for something other than full mouth dental implants, you may hear about fixed bridges supported by implants or implant-supported dentures. Both of these options involve placing implants in the jaw then attaching either dental bridges or removable dentures.
The Dental Implant Procedure: Step by Step
Enjoy a simplified dental implant experience at Nuvia. Unlike traditional methods of getting dental implants that may take up to 10+ months before you finally get your permanent teeth, you will enjoy your permanent teeth 24 hours after surgery. Here’s how the step by step process works:
The Importance of Bone Density and Jaw Structure
When considering full mouth dental implants, the quality of bone density and the overall structure of the jaw are crucial factors that influence the success of the implant procedure. Dental implants require a strong and healthy jawbone for placement and long-term support. Here’s why these factors are so essential:
Foundation for Implants: The titanium post of the implant, which serves as the root for the new tooth, must be anchored securely within the jawbone. Adequate bone density ensures that the implant can be securely placed, providing the stability needed for it to fuse properly with the bone.
Long-Term Success: The durability and functionality of dental implants heavily depend on the health of the jawbone. Insufficient bone density can lead to implant failure, as the bone might not be able to adequately support the implant under the stresses of daily use, such as chewing and biting.
Aesthetic Results: A well-preserved jaw structure contributes to a more natural facial appearance. Loss of bone can lead to changes in facial contours, which full mouth dental implants can help prevent. By maintaining the bone structure, implants assist in preventing significant facial structure changes.

Choosing the Right Dental Implant Provider: Key Questions to Ask
When getting full mouth dental implants, one of the most important decisions you can make is who your dental implant provider will be. When it comes to surgery, and full mouth reconstruction, you want to make sure it’s done right and that things go smoothly. To know whether or not your provider is as experienced as you’re comfortable with, consider asking these questions:
- How many full mouth restorations have they done or do they usually do each year?
- How many implants has the doctor placed?
- Do they place them on a regular basis?
Nuvia only provides full arch restorations. Our surgeons and restorative doctors perform these procedures day in and day out.

Frequently Asked Questions about Full Mouth Dental Implants
Are full mouth dental implants a good idea?
Full mouth dental implants are an excellent solution for individuals who have lost most or all of their teeth and are looking for a durable, functional, and aesthetic replacement. They offer significant advantages over traditional dentures, including improved oral health, increased comfort, and great functionality in eating and speaking.

Recovery time can vary depending on the extent of the surgery and the individual’s health. Initial healing typically occurs within a few weeks, but the complete integration of the implants with the bone can take several months. Most patients can return to normal activities within a few days to a couple of weeks after the surgery.
How many implants are needed for full mouth?
The number of implants needed for a full mouth restoration can vary depending on the method used. Common configurations include All-on-4® dental implants, which uses four implants per arch, and All-on-6 or All-on-8, which use six to eight implants per arch, respectively, providing additional support and stability.
