Full Mouth Reconstruction Cost Mexico

Full mouth reconstruction cost Mexico is much lower than in the US thanks to the unique conditions of Mexico’s healthcare. The treatment restores lost or damaged teeth and repositions the jaw and soft tissues of the oral cavity.

The reconstruction procedure in Mexico is an effective solution for patients who need to have the majority of their teeth restored. At Mexicodent, it is an effective and reliable way of restoring your smile for an affordable cost.

Which types of full-mouth dental implants do most patients need?

Most types of full mouth restoration Mexico involve one or several dental procedures, such as installing implants, dental veneers or crown installation, root canal treatment, teeth whitening, bone grafts, sinus lift, jaw repositioning, and other treatments.Patients who usually require restoring their teeth from scratch can’t get a dental crown or bridge by itself.Instead, crowns or bridges need new attachments in place of missing teeth. These attachments can be formed using dental implants.

Dental implants in Mexico are screw-shaped dental prostheses installed in place of missing or damaged teeth roots. They form a secure connection between bone and the visible part of dental restoration, usually crowns or fixed bridges. Dental implants are much more reliable than other types of teeth replacements, as they can fuse with the bone in a process called osseointegration. They form a connection similar to one that is present between natural tooth roots and the jawbone. This property also makes them able to stop bone density loss.

How can tooth implants revert bone density loss?

Typically, after a person loses their tooth, their jawbone starts to atrophy in the location of tooth loss. The cause is a lack of mechanical stimulation. As now there is no tooth root to transfer mechanical stimuli to the jawbone, the bone begins to shrink and contract. This process can cause further damage to surrounding teeth. The shrinking jawbone can make them crowd or otherwise interfere with each other. When dental implants fuse with the bone, they can perfectly replicate the stimuli-transferring function of natural tooth roots.

As a result, they stop the process of bone shrinkage, allowing the patient to retain their dental health for longer. Usually, when patients want a full-mouth dental restoration in Mexico, they either have total adentia or a close to it. Total adentia means that the patient has no functional teeth left. In these cases, most dental implant treatments will consist of installing titanium dental implants, to which the doctors will then attach one of several types of dental bridges.

The most popular ones are the following:

Full Mouth Dental Implant Types

Overdentures

Overdentures are similar to regular dentures but attached to dental implants, not hooks installed into the patient’s mouth. They are removable, just like regular dentures. Indeed, overdentures are similar to conventional dentures but with additional benefits installed dental implants offer. Overdentures can be supported by as few as two dental implants per jaw, but four dental implants per jaw are more common. This type has the lowest cost.

Fixed Bridge

Fixed bridges are, in essence, full-mouth dental bridges attached to dental implants. Just like regular dental bridges, fixed bridges are not removable and can only be refitted at a dentist’s. A single fixed bridge replaces all the teeth of a single jaw and is supported by a minimum of six dental implants.To offer better stability, up to eight dental implants per bridge can be used.

Dental implants used for fixed bridge installation are installed vertically in a similar manner to how they would have been installed if they were to support dental crowns. There are many kinds of fixed bridges available, so the patient is guaranteed to find a suitable one for their needs and budget.

All on 4

All-on-X is a family of treatments similar to fixed bridge procedures, but dental implants used are proprietary and are installed at an angle. These treatments can cost more. The three most common All-on-X treatments are called All-on-4, All-on-6, and All-on-8. They consist of a special fixed bridge attached to four, six or eight dental implants, respectively.

The process of installing implants is actually quite lengthy. Because dental implants need time to osseointegrate, the patient won’t get their permanent prostheses right after the installation. First, the dentist will give them an alternative low-pressure prosthesis.

The type of prosthesis depends on the type of procedure. In a fixed bridge procedure, patients will receive removable dentures that they should wear until dental implants osseointegrate. This process will take about six to eight months, after which the patient should return to the Mexicodent clinic for fixed bridge installation.

In an All-on-X procedure, the doctor will install a fixed bridge right away, but this fixed bridge is low-pressure, meaning that it can’t support the full bite force of the patient. After the osseointegration is completed, the patient should return to the clinic to get the permanent bridges that won’t limit their ability to eat. After getting the permanent prosthesis, the procedure is considered completed.

The Process of Full Mouth Restoration

As a general rule, the procedure for dental implant installation in Mexico will consist of several phases. First, the doctor will evaluate the state of the patient’s teeth and jaw to determine the best type of implant for them. The doctor will make three-dimensional scans of the patient’s dentition and jaw, which will be used during the installation to determine the correct angle and position for dental implants.

The scan will also help the doctor to assess the state of the patient’s jaw and the location of the sinuses. If the jaw lacks density for dental implants, the patient will require bone grafts before the installation. Bone grafts increase the density of the patient’s bones by transplanting extra bone material from non-vital bones and by using binder powders.

The location of the patient’s sinuses is essential because if they are too low, they will interfere with installing dental implants into the upper jaw. Dental implants can reach into the sinus cavity, causing inflammations, infections, and other side effects. To prevent them, the doctors will perform sinus lift surgery. In the process of the surgery, they will relocate the patient’s sinuses higher so that they don’t interfere with full-mouth dental implant installation.

The Procedure of Full Mouth Restoration

After these preliminary steps, the installation procedure can begin. The doctor will make shallow incisions in the patient’s gums. The goal is to expose the jawbone beneath. The doctor will then make holes for dental implants and install the required type of implant.After installing dental implants, the patient’s gums are sutured.

The doctor will then install a low-pressure tooth prosthesis, either dentures or a temporary fixed bridge. The patient can return home after this step, as they will need to wait about half a year until the osseointegration process is completed.

After this, the patient should return to Mexicodent clinic so that the dentist can install their permanent prostheses. The only exception to this general process is the overdenture treatment.

How much can be saved by getting full-mouth dental implants in Mexico, including travel costs?

Full mouth restoration Mexico cost can vary, as no two procedures are identical. This is because dental restoration treatments can consist of many different procedures, as mentioned before. A typical dental restoration in Mexico will consist of full-mouth implant installation at minimum, but even these vary in cost. But no matter what treatment the patient chooses, at Mexicodent in Mexico, it is almost guaranteed to be much more affordable.

If we include all possible treatments, then the average cost of dental restoration at Mexicodent in Mexico will be 11,100$. Even though the patient will need to pay for travel costs, the total cost is still much lower than if they would get treatment in a local clinic.

What are the indications for a full-mouth reconstruction?

Full mouth reconstruction Mexico is often used for patients who have lost most or all of their teeth. The treatment is also recommended for patients who must remove the majority of their teeth to solve severe issues with decay or fractured teeth due to impact trauma or other physical damage. As this complex treatment can include many different procedures, it can also be used if the patient has several different types of dental issues. The treatment can be used to treat not only teeth but also gums and jaws.

A patient who wants to get this treatment in Mexico should be older than eighteen, as installing dental implants before bone development is completed is ineffective. As the patient’s jawbone continues to grow, dental implants can get displaced or angled, distorting the patient’s smile.

The patient should not have any life-threatening conditions or conditions that can make the surgery too dangerous to perform. The patient should not have allergies to anesthesia, as the treatment is impossible without it.

The pros of full-mouth restoration treatment

There are many benefits of full-mouth restoration surgery at Mexicodent in Mexico. The primary benefit is, of course, the possibility of restoring oral health. The treatment can be used to resolve a variety of oral health issues, starting from cavities and lost teeth to such issues as gingivitis and other inflammatory diseases of the oral cavity. Treating these issues will allow the patient to regain their normal life. They will no longer feel pain or ache associated with dental issues or feel embarrassed of their damaged or discolored teeth.

Full-mouth restoration treatments in Mexico have long-lasting results, often permanent, if the patient keeps up with good oral hygiene after the treatment.

Furthermore, in Mexico, the cost of the treatment will be at least fifty percent less than in the US, including the travel costs. This makes Mexicodent in Mexico the best place for any patient to have a full-mouth reconstruction.

What types of full mouth dental implants can be installed?

Full-mouth dental implants in Mexico differ from regular ones in that they support a fixed bridge that replaces all the teeth in a single jaw instead of each implant supporting an individual dental crown. Usually, the bridge is supported by four, six, or eight dental implants, and the treatments are referred to as All-on-4, All-on-6, or All-on-8 dental implants.

These treatments at Mexicodent in Mexico don’t require installing many dental implants at once. Dental implants impart more pressure on the bone, so using separate implants for every tooth is not optimal both from the financial and practical viewpoint.
