Arverne Dental: Missing Upper and Lower Teeth

We welcome you to our Missing Upper and Lower Teeth Page at Arverne Dental. Here, we offer comprehensive information on treatment options for those who have lost all their upper and/or lower teeth. Our practice, led by Dr. Lyuba Taft, is committed to providing residents of Rockaway Beach, NY, personalized and compassionate dental care.

Understanding Tooth Loss

Losing all of your upper and lower teeth, also known as complete edentulism, can have a significant impact on your oral health, function, and overall quality of life. Tooth loss can be due to various factors, including trauma, congenital conditions, severe decay, or gum disease. Regardless of the reason, it is crucial to maintain a healthy smile and an attractive appearance for optimal overall health.

Treatment Options for Complete Edentulism

Arverne Dental offers a variety of treatment options for complete edentulism. We can also restore your smile. Dr. Lyuba Taft will recommend a solution based on your needs, preferences, and oral health.

Complete Dentures: Traditional full dentures are removable appliances that replace the entire upper or lower set of teeth. These dentures, which are custom-made to look like natural teeth and gums and restore the function and appearance of your smile, are made in a way that closely mimics nature. Complete dentures offer a non-invasive and affordable option for replacing missing teeth. They restore oral function and appearance immediately.


Implant-Supported Overdentures: Implant-supported overdentures are a stable and secure alternative to traditional dentures. The overdenture is supported and anchored by dental implants that are surgically implanted into the jawbone. This prevents the overdenture from moving or slipping during eating or speaking. Implant-supported dentures improve stability, comfort, and chewing efficiency. They also enhance overall oral function.


All-On-Four Dental Implants: The concept of All on 4(r) is a revolutionary treatment for full-arch tooth restoration that uses dental implants to support fixed prostheses. Four strategically placed implants anchor a customized bridge or denture. This provides unmatched stability and functionality. All-on-4 (r) dental implant systems offer fixed teeth with minimal bone grafting. They are an excellent solution for people who have reduced bone volume.

Full-Arch Bridges Supported by Implants: Full-arch bridges supported by implants are another option to replace all upper or lower teeth. A custom-made bridge is supported by multiple dental implants placed in the jawbone. Implant-supported bridges provide superior stability, aesthetics, and comfort compared to removable dental dentures. They can restore confidence and functionality for individuals with complete edentulism.
