Full Mouth Implants: Case 1
Description
Raymond had tried dentures in the past, but after a few days he couldn't tolerated how bulky they felt in his mouth. As a result, he got by for over a decade with no teeth at all. He would eat simply by "gumming" his food. With no teeth, he looked 20 years older than he really was. He was in his 50's but had a dental age in his 80's. After his wife finally convinced him(as is often the case), he came in to our office for a consultation. He agreed that a full mouth of implant bridges was the way to go. In one day we put 6 implants in on his top jaw and six implants in to the lower jaw. After a few months of healing we began building his teeth. Once he got the new teeth, he realized what he had been missing out on for so long. He began to enjoy the taste of food again. He got a dental face lift and instantly looked twenty years younger. His wife and him are absolutely thrilled with the results. Raymond was so thrilled that a few months later he sent us a friend to have the same work done.
