Planning visits, surgery day with temporary teeth, then the final arch.

Your questions
Is it one long surgery?
Surgery day is a long appointment, usually with sedation. We walk you through the day hour by hour at the consult.
Can I eat normally?
After healing, most people eat a far wider range of food than with a denture. During healing you follow a soft diet.
What if I have been told I have no bone?
Many people who were told that are still candidates. The 3D scan tells us what you have to work with.
Talk full-arch through with the dentist.
A 45 minute smile consult with the dentist. You leave with a written plan.
