It's been about 11 months since I first started my journey. It's all done and I couldn't be happier. Thanks Dr. Robert Seaberg and Dr Victor Manon.

Getting closer to being finished
Well it's November and I just went in for my final impression. They are making my final set of teeth. It's been a long journey, but well worth it. Thanks to Dr

Sorry it submitted before I was finished. Dr Victor Manon did my surgery and Dr Robert Seaberg did my dentures. Both are great. I would highly recommend both if you are in the Houston area.

All in Four Dentures
It's finally done! All day procedure, all teeth on upper and lower arch removed. Dr. Victor Manon did my implant post and extractions. Dr. Robert Seaberg did my dentures. Very professional and dedicated. I was called later that night by my surgeon Dr Manon to check on swelling or any concern I may have. Follow up visit to Dr. Seaberg today. A few minor adjustments on my temporary dentures. I'm on soft food for the next two weeks. They will let bones to heal to the implant posts for better results. For the first time in years I feel confident about my smile.

Congratulations. Your new smile looks fantastic. I am getting ready to start the process myself. Please keep us posted on any issues that may come up. Hearing what others have gone through helps me prepare for what may be in store. How was your pain level the first and second day?
Due to pulling of the remaining teeth and all screws put in at the same time the pain is constant. On antibotics and pain meds seem to due the job. I've had a friend who has already done it. He was a lot of help on what to expect.
Did I read correctly that the cost of your procedure was $52,000 for both top and bottom? I have been quoted $45,000 for just the top, and I really think that is high, but it is so hard to get straight pricing answers online.
Yes, that was total for upper and lower.
I'm wondering whether you're able to close your teeth in a natural way at this point, or if the pain is too great. You're showing your upper and lower teeth in the picture so we can see them, obviously, but I'm wondering how everything feels in a resting bite.
Yes, they close good so far, no problems besides the swelling.
Do not know where you live, but search for prosthodontists in your area. If you live in west us Dr golpa in vegas does only all on fours.I picked a prosthodontist in az that I love.I had all teeth extracted last tues and wed with 4 implants upper and lower with temp dentures. She said hopefully in 4 or 5 months I will be ready for the perm bridges.After the procedur I was given scripts for motrin,decadron,antibiotics,tulenol no 3,and special mouthwash.I am still swollen,but it is a lot better now.I only put teeth in when I go out,I am eating scrambled eggs smoothies and warm soup. I paid 40 k for upper and lower extractios,implants and bridges which will come later after implants are solid.
