Full Mouth Dental Implants Cost

Your Guide to the Cost and Value of a New Smile

What Are Full Mouth Dental Implants?

Full mouth dental implants are a comprehensive solution designed to replace all or most of the teeth in an upper or lower arch. Unlike removable dentures that rest on your gums, implants are titanium posts that are surgically anchored into your jawbone, acting as permanent roots for your new teeth. This provides unmatched stability and prevents the jawbone loss that occurs when teeth are missing.

The most popular and efficient method is often the All-on-4® treatment concept, which uses just four strategically placed implants to support an entire arch of beautiful, permanent teeth.

Breaking Down the Cost: What's Included?

The cost of full mouth dental implants can range significantly, typically from $20,000 to $ 50,000 or more per arch. This is not just for the teeth themselves; it's an all-inclusive price for a highly complex medical procedure.

Here are the key factors that influence the final cost:

• Number of Implants: An All-on-4 procedure is generally more cost-effective than placing an individual implant for every missing tooth.

• Preparatory Procedures: The need for tooth extractions or bone grafting to ensure a strong foundation can add to the total investment.

• Materials Used: The final prosthetic teeth can be made from high-quality acrylic, composite, or porcelain, each with distinct price points and durability characteristics.

• Technology & Expertise: The skill of your surgical and restorative team is paramount. The price reflects the expertise of top specialists, including our periodontist, Dr. Jesse Lemoine, who handles complex surgery, and our cosmetic dentist, Dr. Hans Almanzar, who designs the final smile.

Who Is a Candidate for This Procedure?

Full mouth dental implants are an ideal solution for individuals who:

• Have lost most or all of their teeth.

• Are frustrated with the instability and discomfort of removable dentures.

• Have sufficient jawbone to support implants (or are willing to undergo bone grafting).

• Are in good overall health to ensure proper healing.

The Long-Term Value: More Than Just a Price Tag

While the upfront cost is significant, it's crucial to see it as a long-term investment.

• Permanence: With proper care, implants can last a lifetime, unlike dentures, which need to be replaced every 5-10 years.

• Health: Implants are the only solution that prevents jawbone loss, protecting your facial structure.

• Quality of Life: Eat the foods you love, speak clearly, and smile with total confidence. There is no slipping, no adhesives, and no discomfort.
