Full-Mouth Dental Implants in Nashville TN

If you have many missing, broken, loose, or failing teeth, full-mouth dental implants in Nashville TN can provide an alternative to replacing each tooth individually or relying entirely on traditional removable dentures.

At Dental Design Studios in Nashville, TN, we provide full-arch implant treatment from planning and implant placement through the final restoration.

What Are Full-Mouth Dental Implants?

Full-mouth dental implant treatment uses multiple dental implants to support replacement teeth.

Instead of placing an implant for every missing tooth, a carefully planned number of implants can support an entire upper or lower arch of teeth.

This is commonly called full-arch dental implant treatment.

What Is All-on-4?

All-on-4 is a treatment concept in which a complete arch of replacement teeth is supported by strategically positioned dental implants.

Despite the name, not every patient should necessarily receive exactly four implants. Implant number and position should be determined according to the patient's bone, anatomy, bite, and restorative needs.

Can You Get Full-Mouth Dental Implants in One Day?

Some patients can have failing teeth removed, implants placed, and a fixed temporary restoration delivered on the same day.

This is sometimes referred to as same-day teeth, teeth in a day, or immediate-load full-arch implant treatment.

The temporary teeth protect the implants and provide appearance and function during healing. A final restoration is typically completed after the implants have healed.

Not everyone qualifies for immediate loading.

IV Sedation for Full-Mouth Implant Treatment

Full-mouth implant procedures can involve multiple extractions and implant placement.

IV sedation is available for appropriate patients who prefer sedation during extensive dental treatment.

Your medical history and individual circumstances must be evaluated to determine whether IV sedation is appropriate.

Can I Get Full-Mouth Implants If I Have Bone Loss?

Possibly.

Bone loss does not automatically prevent someone from receiving dental implants. Available bone varies significantly from person to person.

A 3D CBCT scan allows the dentist to evaluate bone volume and important anatomical structures before recommending treatment.

Some patients may require grafting or a different implant approach.

Full-Mouth Dental Implants vs. Dentures

Traditional dentures are removable and primarily supported by the gums.

Implant-supported teeth use dental implants anchored in the jawbone for support.

Depending on the design, implant-supported restorations can be removable or fixed. A fixed full-arch restoration remains attached to the implants and is removed by a dental professional when necessary.

• Number of implants
• Number of extractions
• Bone availability
• Need for grafting
• Sedation
• Complexity of surgery
