Your smile is your calling card that makes a first impression and sets you apart. If you have missing teeth, this can have devastating consequences on your emotional and physical health. You may be too embarrassed to smile and this can negatively impact your self-esteem and quality of life. The physical repercussions of loose or missing teeth include gum disease, damage to other teeth, bone loss, undesirable facial changes and compromised nutrition. In some cases, missing teeth can even have a negative impact on your systemic health. If you have failing or missing teeth, severe jaw bone loss or complete tooth loss, full mouth dental implants in Fort Lauderdale, FL can provide a significant and dramatic transformation. From single implants to full mouth rejuvenation, Dr. Patty’s Dental Boutique & Spa is dedicated to helping you achieve a healthy smile through extraordinary care, from the first consultation to final restoration!
We can help put an end to your painful and discouraging symptoms with full mouth solutions that fit your lifestyle, smile goals, and budget!
At Dr. Patty’s Dental Boutique & Spa, we’re pleased to offer diverse solutions for replacing failing or missing teeth including traditional dentures, removable implant supported dentures and fixed, permanent full mouth dental implants. At your initial complimentary consultation, Dr. April Patterson will help you select the best protocol to meet your smile needs and budget. Dr. Patty loves the versatility of the All-on-4™ protocol because it enables her to place a minimum of five or six dental implants. A greater number of strategically placed implants builds a stronger foundation for your new teeth than the customary four implants and helps create perfect symmetry.
We also offer TeethToday™, a similar protocol to All-on-4 and Hybridge® Full Arch implants. TeethToday is designed specifically for patients with limited bone density in their jaw and like All-on-4™, enables receiving a new set of temporary teeth the same day as surgery. Hybridge® is an innovative protocol that delivers a fast, cost effective and simplified treatment approach. With Hybridge®, we can also provide a temporary denture while your surgical sites heal. The final Hybridge® prosthetic restoration is a cross-linked polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) and chrome cobalt bridge replacing up to 12 teeth, supported on five to six dental implants.
During your personalized consultation, we will ask you about your particular needs, smile goals and concerns. Your overall health will be evaluated and we will ask you about your medical history and any current conditions or lifestyle factors that could impact a successful outcome. At this visit, we also discuss costs and ask for a deposit. We take a scan with cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) to analyze your bone structure, nerve tissue and sinus cavities. About 150–200 images created in less than a minute are compiled into a single 3D picture. The 3D image and digital impressions created by an external dental lab that comes to our practice are used to precisely plan your dental implant surgery.
Although most adults who visit our practice are already candidates for full mouth dental implants in Fort Lauderdale, FL, bone loss and gum disease often require preliminary treatments. Tobacco smokers have a higher incidence of gum disease and tooth loss and smoking also adversely affects wound healing. This can jeopardize the success of bone grafting and fusion of the dental implants with your jawbone. As such, peri-implantitis, an inflammatory condition that can cause dental implants to fail, is more common in smokers.
During a follow-up visit, we will check your progress to see if everything is healing properly. It takes dental implants three to six months to fuse with new bone growth in your jaw in a process called osseointegration. Proper osseointegration is essential for dental implants to act like natural tooth roots and provide a strong and long-lasting foundation for your new teeth.
