Full-Arch Dental Implant Restoration

Full-arch dental implant restoration is the most effective solution for restoring missing teeth. This approach, also known as the All-On-X implant technique, is customized based on individual cases, with options such as All-On-4 or All-On-6 implants. In this article, Platinum Dental will help you better understand this method and its associated costs.

What is Full-Arch Dental Implant Restoration?

Full-arch dental implant restoration involves placing 4 or 6 implant posts to restore a complete set of teeth for patients who have lost most or all of their teeth. This procedure is commonly performed for middle-aged or elderly individuals. ProArch All-On-4 and All-On-6 techniques are widely used for their outstanding benefits, such as restoring up to 95% of chewing ability while minimizing complex surgeries like bone grafting. The fixed structure is easy to maintain and clean.

Currently, the two most common methods for full-arch implant restoration are All-On-4 and All-On-6:

• All-On-4 Full-Arch Dental Implants: This efficient solution uses four implant posts per arch. Two posts are placed straight in the area of the second premolars, while the other two are angled up to 45 degrees in the molar regions to provide stability.
• All-On-6 Full-Arch Dental Implants: Based on the All-On-4 technique, this approach is suitable for patients with weaker jawbones. Two additional implants are placed in the molar area, totaling six posts per arch. This ensures better stability, durability, and functional effectiveness while minimizing bone resorption.

Who Should Consider Full-Arch Dental Implants?

The All-On-4 and All-On-6 techniques are suitable for various cases of tooth loss, including:

• Patients who have lost all teeth and find removable dentures inconvenient for eating or speaking.
• Patients with total tooth loss who dislike or feel uncomfortable using removable dentures.
• Patients with severe periodontitis causing loose teeth and chewing difficulties.

Key Advantages of Full-Arch Dental Implants

The All-On-4 and All-On-6 techniques are highly recommended by dental experts due to their numerous advantages:

Quick Procedure and Minimal Discomfort

These methods involve placing only 4-6 implants per arch, avoiding the need for sinus lifts or bone grafts, resulting in a faster procedure. Temporary prosthetics are attached immediately after surgery, enhancing aesthetics, chewing function, and speech without the long wait typically associated with traditional implant methods (3–6 months).

Natural Appearance and Improved Aesthetics

Using premium materials for both the base and prosthetic teeth, these techniques offer a natural, bright, and harmonious smile. They also enhance facial appearance, reducing sagging, muscle atrophy, and wrinkles around the mouth.

Lifetime Durability

Full-arch dental implants provide a long-lasting solution when properly maintained. The prosthetic teeth can be easily removed for cleaning or repairs without harming the implants or oral health.

Restored Chewing Function

These techniques restore over 90% of chewing efficiency, allowing patients to enjoy food comfortably and regain their appetite.

Cost-Effectiveness

Patients only need to invest in 4–6 implants per arch, making it a more economical option compared to individual implants while still ensuring stability and natural aesthetics.

Are There Any Disadvantages?

While full-arch dental implants offer significant benefits, some limitations include:

• High Cost: Compared to individual implants or removable dentures, full-arch restoration is more expensive, ranging from 150,000,000 VND to 300,000,000 VND depending on the implant type and patient condition.
• Requires Skilled Professionals: The procedure is technically demanding, requiring experienced dentists with advanced expertise.

Full-Arch Implant Procedure at Platinum Dental

Step 1: Dental Examination, X-Ray Imaging, and Implant Planning

Before starting the full-arch implant process, the dentist conducts a comprehensive oral health examination and a CBCT scan to assess jawbone density and thickness. Based on these results, the dentist will develop a personalized treatment plan for you, detailing the cost and time required for the implant procedure.

Step 2: Blood Tests and Implant Placement Surgery

Patients are required to undergo necessary blood tests to ensure optimal health before implant surgery. During the procedure, patients are placed under local or general anesthesia. In cases of total tooth loss or missing front teeth, temporary teeth are provided while waiting for the implants to biologically integrate with the jawbone. This ensures aesthetics and facilitates easier eating.

Step 3: Follow-Up and Post-Surgery Assessment

Follow-up appointments are scheduled as per the dentist’s instructions to monitor healing progress and ensure the surgical site is recovering well.

Step 4: Final Restoration with Dental Crowns

After 6–14 weeks, once the implants have fully fused with the jawbone, the dentist attaches permanent crowns to complete the implant process. This phase typically involves 3–5 treatment sessions over 5–7 days, depending on the patient’s condition.
