What Is Full-Arch Surgery?

Full-arch surgery is an advanced dental procedure designed to replace an entire arch of missing or failing teeth with implant-supported prosthetics. Unlike traditional dentures, which rest on the gums, full-arch solutions use strategically placed dental implants to provide maximum stability and functionality. Whether you choose All-On-X or overdentures, full-arch surgery can help you achieve a stronger, more natural-looking smile with improved chewing ability and long-term oral health benefits.

All-On-X: A Permanent, Fixed Solution

All-On-X is a revolutionary technique that allows us to replace an entire arch of teeth using a minimal number of dental implants. Typically, four to six implants are placed in the jawbone to support a full set of non-removable prosthetic teeth. This innovative approach provides:

• A secure, long-lasting solution that functions like natural teeth.
• Immediate transformation with same-day provisional teeth placement.
• Reduced need for bone grafting due to strategic implant positioning.
• Improved comfort, stability, and confidence compared to traditional dentures.

With All-On-X, you can enjoy a full set of beautiful, durable teeth without the inconvenience of removable appliances. This treatment restores your ability to eat, speak, and smile naturally while preserving your jawbone and facial structure.

Overdentures: A Removable Yet Secure Alternative

For patients looking for an implant-supported option with some flexibility, overdentures offer an excellent solution. Unlike conventional dentures, overdentures are anchored by dental implants, providing enhanced stability and eliminating the need for adhesives. Benefits of overdentures include:

• Greater comfort and less irritation compared to traditional dentures.
• Stronger bite force for easier chewing and improved digestion.
• Prevention of bone loss and facial collapse associated with missing teeth.
• Easy removal for cleaning while maintaining a secure fit throughout the day.

Overdentures can be customized to fit each patient’s needs, offering a balance between stability and convenience. Whether you need a full or partial overdenture, our expert team can create a solution tailored to your lifestyle.

The Full-Arch Surgery Process

At Atlantic Periodontics & Implants, we follow a precise, patient-focused approach to full-arch surgery. Our process includes:

• Comprehensive consultation: We begin with a thorough evaluation, including digital imaging and a discussion of your goals, to determine the best full-arch solution for you.
• Treatment planning: Our team creates a customized treatment plan, considering factors such as bone density, oral health, and aesthetic preferences.
• Surgical placement of implants: Using advanced technology and minimally invasive techniques, we strategically place implants to maximize stability and longevity.
• Provisional teeth placement: In many cases, patients receive a temporary set of teeth the same day as surgery, allowing them to leave with a functional smile.
• Final prosthesis placement: After the healing period, we replace the temporary teeth with a custom-crafted, permanent set designed for optimal comfort and appearance.
