Start Smiling Dental Practice is based in Ingatestone and we welcome enquiries from people near RAF Hornchurch Heritage Centre who are considering dental implants. Multiple dental implants are placed in the jawbone to support replacement teeth across a full upper or lower arch, and we will explain whether a fixed implant-supported bridge or a removable implant-retained overdenture is more appropriate for you. Your individual assessment includes an oral examination and review of medical history so you can make an informed decision.

What To Expect During Full Arch Implant Treatment
01
Comprehensive Assessment
We review gum health, remaining teeth, bite, medical history, medicines and your goals to consider whether full-arch care is appropriate.
02
Records And Planning
Detailed imaging and scans help plan your full arch dental implant treatment and the restorative design carefully, so you know the proposed approach.
03
Preparatory Care Where Needed
Any gum disease will be stabilised and teeth that cannot be retained will be discussed; bone grafting may be recommended in some cases.
04
Implant Placement
Implants are surgically placed into the jawbone under local anaesthetic when clinically appropriate; sedation options are discussed if relevant.
05
Healing And Review
Implants require time to integrate with the bone and we will arrange follow-up reviews to monitor healing and address concerns.
06
Final Restoration And Maintenance
When healing and checks indicate readiness, the final bridge or overdenture is fitted and we agree a professional maintenance schedule and home-care routine.
Are Full Arch Dental Implants Right For You?
Suitability varies between patients and is not appropriate in every case. Full arch treatment may be considered where many teeth are missing, remaining teeth have a poor prognosis, or conventional dentures are not functioning well.
Your suitability depends on bone quality, gum health, remaining teeth, medical history, medicines, smoking, hygiene ability and expectations. We do not remove healthy, maintainable teeth simply to place implants; preservation is considered wherever possible. Alternatives such as conventional dentures, retaining and restoring suitable teeth, implant-retained removable dentures or choosing not to proceed will be explained so you can make an informed choice.

Frequently Asked Questions
The number of implants varies by patient anatomy and the planned restoration; there is no fixed number that applies to every case, and your clinician will recommend an implant plan only after assessment and imaging.
Start Smiling Dental Practice is based in Ingatestone and welcomes patients from RAF Hornchurch Heritage Centre.
Cleaning depends on the restoration type; regular professional hygiene care and an effective daily routine for cleaning around and beneath the restoration are essential for long-term implant health.
Not necessarily; any remaining teeth that can be reasonably maintained should be considered for preservation and may alter the scope of full-arch replacement depending on long-term prognosis.
Final restorations are fitted when healing and clinical checks indicate it is appropriate; not all treatment plans include immediate fixed teeth on the day of implant placement.
If an implant fails to integrate or a prosthetic complication develops, the team will explain remedial options which may include monitoring, removal and replacement, or alternative restorative approaches depending on the specific situation.
