Multiple Dental Implants: Restore a Complete, Confident Smile


Losing multiple teeth can have a domino effect on your oral health. It can make chewing difficult, cause your remaining teeth to shift out of alignment, and lead to significant bone loss in your jaw. If you are missing several teeth, you need a solution that restores balance and function.

At Gardens Implant & Cosmetic Dentistry, we specialize in Multiple Dental Implants to rebuild your smile.

Whether you have lost teeth due to decay, gum disease, or trauma, we can design a custom implant solution, such as individual implants or an implant-supported bridge, that eliminates gaps and lets you smile freely again.

EXPERTISE

Why Choose Gardens for Multiple Implants?


Replacing multiple teeth requires careful planning to ensure the new teeth look natural and function in harmony with your bite. Here is why patients in Palm Beach Gardens trust Dr. Hans Almanzar:

  • Comprehensive Planning: We use 3D CBCT imaging to map your entire jaw. This allows us to strategically place the minimum number of implants needed to support the maximum number of teeth, saving you money and surgery time.

  • Aesthetic Mastery: Dr. Almanzar is a master of restorative dentistry. He ensures that your multiple implants align perfectly with your gum line and match the shade of your remaining natural teeth for a seamless result.

  • Bone Health Focus: By replacing the roots of your missing teeth with titanium posts, we stimulate the jawbone and prevent the "sunken" facial appearance often caused by wearing removable partial dentures.

PROCEDURE

Your Treatment Options


Depending on the number and location of your missing teeth, we will recommend one of two primary solutions:

1. Individual Implants

  • Best for: Missing teeth that are not next to each other.

  • The Process: We place a separate implant and crown for each missing tooth. This mimics nature perfectly, allowing you to floss between every tooth.

2. Implant-Supported Bridges

  • Best for: Three or more missing teeth in a row.

  • The Process: Instead of replacing every single tooth with an implant (which can be expensive and unnecessary), we place two implants at the ends of the gap. These support a "bridge" of 3 or 4 solid porcelain teeth. It is a fixed, permanent solution that is more cost-effective than individual implants.

TESTIMONIAL

Patient Success Story: Ditching the Partial


Actual Patient Scenario

The Challenge: "David," a 55-year-old architect, had a removable partial denture to replace his four upper back teeth. He hated the metal clasps that hooked onto his front teeth, and he couldn't taste his food properly because of the plastic on the roof of his mouth.

The Solution: Dr. Almanzar designed an implant-supported bridge. We placed two implants in the back of his upper jaw to support a 4-tooth ceramic bridge.

The Result: David threw away his partial denture forever. His new teeth are fixed in place, he has no metal hooks showing when he smiles, and the roof of his mouth is completely open. He told us, "It feels like I have my own teeth back. I can finally enjoy a steak dinner again."

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions


Do I need an implant for every missing tooth?

No! That is a common misconception. Implants are incredibly strong. Often, two implants can support a bridge of 3 or 4 teeth. This makes replacing multiple teeth much more affordable and less invasive.

Is this better than a partial denture?

Yes. A partial denture is removable, relies on metal hooks that can damage healthy teeth, and does not stop bone loss. Implants are fixed, stand independently, and preserve your jawbone.

How long does the process take?

The timeline is typically 3 to 5 months. This allows the implants to fuse with your bone (osseointegration) before we attach the final permanent teeth. We always provide temporary teeth, so you don't have gaps during healing.

Is it painful?

Most patients are surprised by how comfortable the procedure is. We use local anesthesia to ensure you are numb. Because we are often placing implants into areas where teeth are already missing (and the nerve is gone), post-op discomfort is usually minimal.

How much does it cost?

The cost depends on the number of implants and the type of restoration (individual crowns vs. a bridge). Because an implant bridge uses fewer implants to replace more teeth, it is often the most cost-effective fixed solution. We will provide a detailed quote during your consult.
