You might be if you have several failing or broken teeth, ongoing jaw pain, or a dentist has told you your bite has "collapsed." We'd also need your gums to be healthy (or treated first), and enough bone to support any implants needed. A thorough assessment at your first visit will give us a clear picture.

Most cases take between 2 and 6 months from start to finish. A key part of the process is a "test drive" phase where we place temporary restorations for 4–8 weeks so your muscles and bite can settle before we make anything permanent.

Not quite. All-on-4 removes all remaining teeth and replaces them with a denture fixed onto 4 implants. Whole mouth rehabilitation usually keeps your natural tooth roots where possible, crowning them individually — which gives more natural chewing function. Where teeth are missing, we can incorporate implants as part of the plan.

We'd caution against it for complex treatment. Full mouth work needs to be done in stages — treating any infection or gum disease first, then aligning teeth if needed, then placing restorations. Implants alone need months to heal before the next step. Trying to do all of this in a 10-day trip risks rushed treatment, inadequate healing time, and complications that are hard to manage once you're back home. The savings often don't outweigh the risks.
