For patients missing all their upper or lower teeth, full-arch dental implants offer a secure, natural-looking alternative to traditional dentures. By anchoring a full prosthetic arch with a few strategically placed implants, this treatment restores the appearance and function of a complete set of teeth, providing unmatched stability and comfort.
Full-arch dental implants, often referred to as implant-supported dentures or full-arch restorations, use a minimal number of implants (typically four to six per arch) to securely support a custom-designed prosthetic. Unlike traditional dentures, which rest on the gums, full-arch implants are fixed in place, providing a comfortable, stable, and long-lasting solution.
The full-arch dental implant process starts with a comprehensive consultation to assess your oral health and determine the ideal implant placement. After placing the implants, they are allowed to integrate with the jawbone in a process called osseointegration. Once healed, a custom prosthetic arch is securely attached to the implants, restoring your smile’s full function and appearance in one comprehensive solution.
Full-arch implants provide a more stable, comfortable, and convenient option compared to removable dentures. Because they are securely fixed, you don’t have to worry about the slipping or sore spots common with traditional dentures. Full-arch implants also help preserve jawbone health and prevent the “sunken” facial appearance that often accompanies tooth and bone loss.
