What Are Full Mouth Implants?
Full mouth implants, often referred to as full arch implants or All on 4, are a comprehensive dental solution for individuals who have lost most or all of their teeth. This innovative procedure involves placing four strategically positioned dental implants into the jawbone to support a full arch of prosthetic teeth. The result is a stable, natural-looking smile that restores both function and aesthetics.
