What are full arch implants?

Full arch implants are a permanent, implant-supported solution for patients who are missing all or most of their teeth in one or both arches, delivering a complete set of fixed teeth that look, feel, and function like natural ones. Unlike traditional dentures, which rest on the gums and can slip, shift, or require adhesives, full arch restorations are anchored by a series of strategically placed implant posts that fuse with the jawbone to create a stable, lasting foundation. At Smiles Made Perfect Dental Partners, full arch implant placements and restorations are among our most routinely offered services, and we handle every stage of the process in-house, including bone grafting when additional support is needed before placement. We also offer free consultations for patients exploring full arch implants, so you can get clear answers and an honest assessment of your options before making any decisions. For patients who are transitioning from failing teeth or existing dentures, we have a great plan for temporary help during the process so you're never without a functional smile. The entire journey from start to finish typically takes anywhere from three to six months, and our team will be with you every step of the way.

The benefits of full arch implants

Permanent teeth that stay in place

Full arch implants are fixed in your mouth and do not come out, which means no more worrying about slippage while eating, speaking, or laughing. You get a complete smile that works exactly like natural teeth, day in and day out.

Preserve the bone and structure of your face

When teeth are lost, the jawbone beneath them begins to shrink over time, which can cause a sunken, aged appearance. Full arch implants replace the roots of the missing teeth and stimulate the jawbone just as natural teeth would, helping to maintain the volume and shape of your face.

A life-changing investment in your quality of life

Patients who complete full arch implant treatment consistently report dramatic improvements in their confidence, comfort, and overall quality of life. With proper care and routine maintenance, your results are built to last for decades.

The full arch implant process

Your free consultation and treatment plan

Every full arch implant journey begins with a free consultation, where your provider will evaluate your oral health, assess your bone density, and get a thorough understanding of your goals. We'll use our panoramic X-ray to get a complete picture of your jaw and discuss whether any preparatory procedures, such as extractions or bone grafting, are needed before placement. You'll leave your consultation with a clear, personalized treatment plan and a realistic timeline so you know exactly what to expect.

Preparatory procedures and implant placement

If extractions or bone grafting are needed, those steps will be completed first to ensure the jawbone is ready to support your implants securely. Once your mouth is prepared, your provider will surgically place the implant posts into the jawbone at carefully selected positions designed to maximize stability and longevity. Sedation options including laughing gas and oral conscious sedation are available to keep you comfortable throughout, and our dedicated conscious sedation room is available for more involved cases. During the healing period that follows, you'll have temporary restorations in place so you always have a smile that looks and functions well.

Your final restoration and long-term results

After the implants have fully fused with the bone, your custom full arch restoration will be attached and carefully adjusted for the ideal fit, function, and appearance. Your provider will check your bite and make any necessary refinements before your treatment is finalized. From there, keeping up with routine implant maintenance visits and good daily hygiene is all you need to protect your investment and enjoy your new smile for years to come.

Frequently asked questions

Are full arch implants a good option if I currently have dentures?

How long does the full arch implant process take?

The timeline depends on each patient's current oral health and the amount of existing bone available. The entire process from extractions, if needed, to the final full arch restoration typically takes anywhere from three to six months. Patients who require bone grafting before placement may need additional healing time before implants can be placed. Throughout the entire process, we have a great plan for temporary help so you'll have a functional, natural-looking smile at every stage of your treatment.

How is a full arch implant different from dentures?

Traditional dentures rest on top of the gums and rely on suction or adhesive to stay in place, which can make them unstable during eating and speaking and uncomfortable over time. Full arch implants are surgically anchored into the jawbone with implant posts, creating a fixed set of teeth that don't move, don't need to be removed, and feel much more like natural teeth. They also stimulate the jawbone in a way that dentures cannot, which helps prevent the bone loss and facial changes that often accompany long-term tooth loss.
