Full-Arch Dental Implants

A Stable and Long-Lasting Solution for Edentulous Patients

Full-arch dental implants are a treatment option for edentulous patients who are looking for a more permanent solution to replace their missing teeth. This treatment involves the placement of several dental implants into the jawbone, which are then used to support a full arch of artificial teeth.

One of the main advantages of full-arch dental implants is that they provide a more stable and secure solution than traditional dentures. The implants are surgically placed into the jawbone, which helps preserve the bone density and prevent bone loss over time.

The process of getting full-arch dental implants typically involves several steps. The first step is an initial consultation with a dental professional to determine if the patient is a suitable candidate for this treatment option. This may involve a comprehensive oral exam and x-rays or scans to evaluate the jawbone and surrounding tissues.

Once the patient has been deemed a suitable candidate for full-arch dental implants, the next step is the placement of the dental implants into the jawbone. The number of implants required will depend on various factors, such as the location and extent of the missing teeth.

After the implants have been placed, a temporary restoration may be placed to allow the implants to heal and fuse with the surrounding bone tissue. Once the implants have fully healed, a custom-made full arch of artificial teeth is created and attached to the implants.

Full-arch dental implants require regular maintenance and care, including regular brushing and flossing, as well as routine dental check-ups and cleanings. With proper care, full-arch dental implants can last for many years, providing edentulous patients with a stable and long-lasting solution to replace their missing teeth.
