Traditional dentures have long been a staple in cosmetic and restorative dentistry, especially for individuals who have lost most if not all of their regular teeth. However, full arch tooth replacement can be an uncomfortable experience, mainly because the synthetic replacements can interfere with fundamental activities like talking, chewing, smiling, and laughing.
A lack of confidence from a poor prosthesis often leads to social isolation and depression, especially amongst the elderly. Even worse for many are the physical side effects such as progressive bone loss, malnutrition from not eating, and an overall sagging facial structure.
