Reclaim Comfort, Function, and Confidence With a Long-Term Solution

If you live in Durham, NC and are dealing with missing, failing, or uncomfortable teeth, you know how much it can affect daily life. Eating becomes difficult. Smiling may feel forced. Dentures can slip or irritate your gums.

Full mouth restoration offers a comprehensive solution designed to help you regain comfort, function, and confidence. At Chapel Hill Oral Surgery, you receive advanced surgical care focused on long-term health, safety, and predictable results, all within a short drive from Durham.

What Full Mouth Restoration Means for You

Full mouth restoration is a personalized treatment approach that rebuilds most or all of your teeth in one or both arches. Your plan may include dental implants, full-arch implant solutions, bone grafting, and coordinated care with your restoring dentist.

This type of treatment may be right for you if you:

  • Have lost several or all of your teeth
  • Struggle with loose or uncomfortable dentures
  • Have advanced dental damage or infection
  • Want a stable, long-term alternative to removable options

Your treatment is designed around your anatomy, health history, and goals, not a one-size-fits-all care plan.

Care Designed for Durham Patients

Although our surgical center is located in Chapel Hill, many patients travel from Durham, including areas near downtown Durham, Southpoint, and Research Triangle Park. The short drive allows you to access advanced oral surgery without sacrificing convenience.

If your general dentist referred you for full mouth restoration, we work closely with them to ensure continuity of care. Clear communication and shared planning help you feel confident at every step.

Your Personalized Treatment Process

A Comprehensive Consultation

Your journey begins with a one-on-one consultation with Dr. David Lee Hill Jr., our board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon. Advanced CBCT imaging is used to evaluate your bone structure, existing teeth, and overall oral health.

During this visit, you will learn which options are best suited for you, whether that includes staged treatment or immediate full-arch restoration.

Advanced Surgical Expertise

You benefit from extensive experience with full arch dental implant procedures, including complex cases that require bone grafting and precise planning. Every step is designed to support stability, comfort, and long-term success.

All-on-4 Center of Excellence

Our facility is also an All-on-4 Center of Excellence, an award from Nobel Biocare to practices with significant experience in full arch dental implant cases.

For you, this means your care is delivered by a team that:

  • Regularly treats complex full arch cases
  • Uses evidence-based implant systems
  • Follows protocols designed for predictable outcomes

If All-on-4® dental implants are part of your recommended treatment plan, you can feel confident knowing your care is guided by extensive experience.

Safety and Comfort Throughout Treatment

Your safety is always the priority.

For procedures involving sedation, your care is supported by a team-based anesthesia model that includes:

  • A board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon
  • An on-site Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA)
  • A team of highly trained surgical assistants

This approach allows continuous monitoring and focused attention throughout your procedure.

Recovery Focused on Wellness

Full mouth restoration is an investment in your health and quality of life. Your recovery is carefully supported with clear instructions, follow-up care, and open communication.

You benefit from:

  • A nearly opioid-free approach to pain management
  • Use of the Comfort Clock to guide safe medication timing
  • Long-term planning to support bone health and function

Many patients report being able to eat comfortably, speak clearly, and smile with confidence once healing is complete.
