Full-Arch Implants

The Process

“Rebuilding a full arch is as much about the face as the teeth. Done with care, it gives back not only a smile, but the way a person carries themselves.”

Our Approach

A full-arch result is engineered as much as it is designed. It is balanced for the face, planned for the bite, and built to function for decades, not seasons.

Step by Step

Four stages, one rebuilt smile.

Full-arch treatment is planned from the face down, so a fixed set of teeth restores your appearance and your bite together, in as few visits as the case allows.

01

Step One

Consultation & Examination

The first visit establishes the full picture. Dr. Atwal assesses your facial structure, remaining teeth, gums, and supporting bone with a clinical examination, 3D imaging, and digital scans, then talks through what a fixed full-arch solution would involve for you. Everything is explained before any decision is made.

What this involves

— Full facial, dental, and bite assessment

— 3D imaging and digital scans

— Review of bone and gum health

— An honest discussion of your options

Planning begins once records are complete

02

Step Two

Treatment Planning

Your case is then planned in detail, away from the chair. Using your scans and 3D imaging, implant positions, tooth design, and the final bite are mapped and rehearsed digitally, with a surgical guide prepared in advance. The day of surgery is fully planned before you arrive.

What this involves

— Digital implant and smile planning

— Guided placement mapped in advance

— Facially-guided design of the new teeth

— A surgical guide prepared for accuracy

Surgery scheduled once the plan is set

03

Step Three

Implant Placement & Same-Day Teeth

On the day of surgery, the implants are placed to the planned positions and, in most cases, a fixed temporary set of teeth is fitted the same day, so you leave with a smile. Over the following months the implants integrate with the bone, while the temporaries let you eat, speak, and heal in comfort.

What this involves

— Guided placement of the implants

— A fixed temporary fitted, often same day

— Time for the implants to integrate

— Comfortable function while you heal

Integration over approximately four months

04

Step Four

Final Restoration

Once the implants have fully integrated, the final prosthesis is made and fitted. Each tooth is crafted for shape, shade, and proportion to suit your face, then secured for a fixed, lasting result that looks and functions like natural teeth. Fit and bite are confirmed with you before anything is finalised.

What this involves

— A final, fixed full-arch prosthesis

— Teeth crafted to suit your face

— Bite and fit confirmed with you

— Care and maintenance guidance

Completed once integration is confirmed
