What To Expect During Full Arch Implant Treatment
01
Comprehensive Assessment
We review oral health, gum condition, remaining teeth, bite, medical history, medicines and lifestyle to determine suitability.
02
Records And Planning
X-rays, digital scans or 3D imaging may be taken and a restorative plan is created with expected options and timings.
03
Preparatory Care Where Needed
Stabilising gum disease, removing teeth with poor prognosis or bone grafting may be recommended if clinically necessary.
04
Implant Placement
Implants are placed in the jawbone under local anaesthetic; the number and position depend on your anatomy and restorative design.
05
Healing And Review
The implants and surrounding tissues are monitored while bone and implants integrate; timing varies between patients.
06
Final Restoration And Maintenance
The definitive fixed or removable implant-supported restoration is fitted when clinically appropriate and a maintenance schedule is agreed.
Are Full Arch Dental Implants Right For You?
Suitability varies between patients and requires an individual clinical assessment. We do not assume that all remaining teeth must be removed and any teeth that can reasonably be maintained will be assessed and discussed.
Factors such as gum health, bone quantity and quality, your general health, medicines, smoking status, hygiene ability and expectations all influence the recommended approach.
Full arch treatment is one of several options that may include keeping and restoring suitable teeth, conventional dentures or implant-retained removable dentures. Your treating clinician will explain risks, benefits, limitations and alternatives so you can decide with clear information.

Frequently Asked Questions
There is no fixed number that suits every case; the number of implants used depends on your jaw anatomy, restorative design and clinical plan. Your dentist will recommend an appropriate number after assessment and imaging, taking into account bone quality, bite and the chosen type of restoration.
Some patients benefit from bone grafting to provide suitable support for implants while others have sufficient bone already. Whether grafting is needed depends on your bone quantity and quality and is decided during planning after imaging and assessment.
Cleaning depends on the restoration design and may include special flossing techniques, interdental brushes or cleaning under an overdenture. Regular professional hygiene appointments and careful home cleaning are essential to long-term implant health and the longevity of the restoration.
Not necessarily. Remaining teeth are assessed individually and teeth that can reasonably be maintained may be kept and restored as part of an alternative plan. Full-arch replacement is not automatically the only option and your clinician will discuss all reasonable choices.
Final restorations are fitted only when clinically appropriate. Some plans include temporary restorations during healing, but you should not assume final fixed teeth will be placed on the implant-placement day without prior confirmation from your treating clinician.
If an implant fails to integrate or complications occur, your team will explain options such as removal, replacement or revision of components. Management depends on the specific situation and clinical judgement, and additional steps may be needed to protect oral health.
