That's something we deal with on an everyday basis and I can help you with an answer. So, if you are having ALL of your teeth removed, your surgeon and prosthetic specialist (periodontist/oral surgeon and prosthodontist) should do a full workup in their clinics to assess your bone. This starts out with a 3D CT scan, models, lab wax-ups and a full discussion on options. Option A- Four upper implants and three lower implants to support REMOVABLE dentures on top and bottom. This will cost you about $20,000 in surgical fees and another $10,000 in prosthetic fees. This assumes you DO NOT need bone grafting otherwise this may add another $5000 to $10,000 to the estimate. Option B-Five implants on top and five implants on bottom-you can have a FIXED prosthetics with such an option which only your specialist can remove to clean up every couple years. This would cost $25,000 for surgical implant placement and then another $25,000 for prostheticsOption C- 6-8 implants on top and 6-8 on bottom- if you have the bone for this, you can have porcelain bridges top and bottom which you will not remove. They are FIXED/PERMANENT. Cost could be over $100,000 for complete top and bottom or more if you need complex bone grafting. The reality is that we see as many people opting for Option C as for option A. And most people who choose option C are not rich but have simply suffered for many years and will do almost anything to be able to eat and function properly again.Good luck and all the best! Hope this works for you.

This is a great question.  We rehabilitate many full mouths and you would be glad to hear that there is an option for every budget.  Make sure you explore all options to determine which is really best for you.  Below are the options in approxiamte Canadian dollarsOption 1- Removable Implant retained denture stabilized by 3-4 implant.  This option can range in cost between $10,000-15,000 per jaw.Option 2 - Fixed implant retained bridge stabilized by 4-6 titanium implants.  This is a great option if you want fixed teeth.  Depending on the material of the final bridge (Acrylic, Resin or Zirconia) and the need for bone grafting this can range $20,000-35,000 per jaw.Option 3 - Fixed implant retained bridge(s) on 4-8 ceramic implants.  This is the most complex type of rehabilitation and usually requires bone grafting.  The cost for this starts at about $35,000 per jaw.It really depends on what you are looking for in your solution.  There are many ways that modern dentistry can replace all your missing teeth, the balance is finding out what would make you happy and content.

There are many options available when considering dental implants as an option for reconstruction. The range is from implant retained removable dentures which could be anywhere from  7 to 12000 per arch to an ideal non removable ceramic reconstruction that can be 25000 to 35000 per arch or more depending on your individual situation. There are many variations in between. It is important to choose the person who does the procedure wisely and balance the cost of the procedure against the benefit of the result. None of this if done properly is inexpensive. However a well performed case should last for many years or a lifetime.
