A comprehensive path for replacing a full arch of teeth.
When most or all teeth in an arch are failing or missing, the decision about what comes next is deeply personal. Full-arch implant treatment can use a set of carefully positioned implants to support a replacement arch. Our role is to make the options understandable, show you what the process involves, and help you decide whether it is right for your health and life.
We review the condition of remaining teeth, gum and bone support, your bite, medical history, and what you hope to change. CBCT imaging can help us study the anatomy before planning implant positions. Dr. Nielsen discusses whether a full-arch approach, a removable denture, or another restorative path makes the most sense.
Full-arch care may involve extractions, implant placement, a temporary restoration, healing, and a final prosthesis. The number of implants and timing vary by patient. Some people may be candidates for a temporary fixed arch soon after placement; others need a different sequence. We explain which steps apply to you, who performs each part, and what you can expect between visits.
The final result should support speaking, chewing, and an appearance that feels like you. We plan the shape and bite carefully, then show you how to clean beneath and around the prosthesis. Follow-up and routine professional maintenance remain important. We also review the investment and available payment paths before treatment begins.
We will examine your remaining teeth, gums, bite, and bone, then discuss fixed and removable ways to replace an arch. You will leave with a clearer picture of the stages, healing time, maintenance, and investment involved in each option.
Request an appointmentAll-on-X is a general term for a full arch supported by a planned number of implants. Your plan depends on your anatomy and needs.
A same-day temporary may be possible in selected cases; candidacy is determined only after a clinical evaluation.
You may still have options. We will compare implant-supported and conventional approaches during your consultation.
