Full Upper Implants - Results

#1 Post by Carol »

I needed to have all my upper teeth extracted and I got a full arch dental implant to replace them. They look nice, but seem big to me. My natural teeth were smaller. I also seem to have gotten a lisp since I've had my implants. Does anyone else who has full implants have these problems? Thanks.

That's alot of teeth to have extracted. Was this after you had braces?

It is something like $35,000 for a full set of 8-10 implants and a fixed bridge up here in Canada. I'd sure want my teeth to feel right after that. Have you discussed this with your surgeon, Carol?
