If your full mouth upper and lower jaw dental implants don't fit properly, here are six steps you can take:
Consult Your Implant Dentist Immediately:
Report the issue to your implantologist or prosthodontist as soon as possible to assess the fit and identify the cause.
Request a Bite Adjustment (Occlusal Correction):
Misalignment in your bite can cause discomfort; a bite adjustment may resolve pressure points or improper contact.
Check for Healing or Bone Integration Issues:
Poor osseointegration (bone-implant fusion) or gum swelling might be affecting the fit—your dentist can evaluate using X-rays.
Evaluate the Prosthesis Design:
Sometimes the problem lies in the dental prosthesis (bridge or denture) rather than the implants; it may need to be reshaped, remade, or relined.
Seek a Second Opinion:
If problems persist and your concerns are not being addressed, consult another experienced implant specialist for an independent evaluation.
Follow Post-Op Instructions Strictly:
Ensure you’re maintaining proper oral hygiene and following all dietary and care guidelines to avoid complications that affect implant fit.
I HAVE BEEN GOING TO DENTAL ASSOCIATES AND I AM IN THE PROCESS OF PUTTING CROWNS ON MY 4 FRONT TEETH. I HAVE NO BACK TEETH TO CHEW ON AND MY GUMS ARE STARTINT TO GET SORE, I AM WONDERING IF I COULD BE A CANDIDATE FOR UPPER IMPLANTS. I HAVE TOO MUCH GUM TISSUE ON MY UPPER LIP AND WAS TOLD THAT I HAVE TO HAVE IT REMOVED BEFORE I HAVE THE CROWNS. THE COST FOR THIS IS GOING TO BE OVER $4500.

25,000 The cost per tooth for dental implants is $1,250 to $3,000 PER TOOTH. Most dentist offices will provide you with a cost quote depending on your insurance, what kind of anesthesia you need and if you'll need gum work in addition to the dental implants.
Dental implants do not directly correct crossbites—they replace missing teeth. A crossbite is a misalignment of the upper and lower teeth, often requiring orthodontic treatment. Implants are placed only after bite alignment is corrected. If placed in an uncorrected crossbite, implants may experience uneven force, leading to complications. Orthodontics (like braces or clear aligners) are usually needed before implant placement. In complex cases, a coordinated plan between orthodontists and implant specialists is essential.
