The first step is to...

Full Mouth Implants?
Full mouth implants may be an option for you, but it's usually best to keep as many of your natural teeth as possible.

The best first step for you is to see a dentist for a complete examination with x-rays. That's the only way to find out what's really going on in your mouth and what...

Are all your teeth really bad or are there some that can be saved with professional care and home care? If you can save some teeth and place implants in the areas that cannot be saved it may be a better treatment option for you. That being said, none of us have seen your teeth.

Dental Implants are a great option for some people.
I agree with some of the other posts that the first thing is to take care of your immediate emergency/pain/ infections.

This should include full set of X-rays, thorough exam, impressions for study models, and photos. Part of the evaluation may involve specialists such as a periodontist (gum/implant surgeon), orthodontist, or endodontist(root canal).
Once all that is done,...
