Full Arch Dental Implants in Philadelphia
At Laudenbach Periodontics & Dental Implants in Philadelphia, we know how traumatizing it is to lose all or some of your teeth. It impacts your quality of life, affecting everything from how well you can eat to your appearance.
If you have one or several missing teeth, you might want to explore the option of a single dental implant for each missing tooth or multiple dental implants for multiple missing teeth.
Full Arch Dental Implants
Philadelphia residents are increasingly choosing full arch dental implants to replace missing rows of teeth. Rather than implanting individual teeth or a bridge, full arch dental implants use implants and a full, one-piece set of replacement teeth that is attached to the implants at intervals.
Your doctor will surgically insert four to six implants into the jawbone, giving them several weeks to heal. You will wear a set of temporary dentures that clip onto the implants. Once the implants have fused with the surrounding jawbone, your doctor will replace the temporary arch with a complete arch of replacement teeth that is permanently attached to the implants using small metal screws called abutments.

Full Arch Dental Implant FAQs
Q: How many teeth can be replaced with dental implants?
A: With our “All In One” treatment concept, a beautiful set of new teeth may be placed in an entire arch (upper or lower) or both arches (upper and lower).
Q: What is the “All In One” treatment?
A: “All In One” is a treatment concept in which our office works closely with your dentist to provide surgical and restorative treatment as part of one solution. Unlike other treatments that focus on a reduced number of implants, our treatment focuses on providing a seamless and long-lasting solution for our patients.
Q: How many implants are required to replace my teeth with dental implants?
A: Studies now show that as few as 4 dental implants are satisfactory to help you transition to your new set of teeth. That being said, nothing lasts forever in life, and we prefer to place at least 6 implants per arch to help ensure long-term success.
Q: Aren’t all dental implants the same?
A: Not! The cost, quality, and precision of dental implant manufacturing vary widely among implant systems. For almost 40 years, our practice has chosen Straumann Dental Implants because they are the leader in implant dentistry and have a proven track record. Straumann has always maintained a high standard of research and development before manufacturing their high-precision dental implant products. We are proud to partner with Straumann to bring our patients the highest quality and most advanced dental implant solutions.
Q: Can I really get new teeth in 1 day?
A: In our office, we utilize a treatment approach that involves replacing your natural teeth on day 1 and inserting a laboratory-fabricated, high-quality temporary bridge within 24 hours. Although we have the option to perform this step chairside on the first day of treatment, we have found that the quality of your new teeth is much better when fabricated in partnership with a dental laboratory.
Q: Can I chew and function normally with my new temporary teeth?
A: Although your new temporary teeth will look great and feel very strong, we will ask you to maintain reduced function and avoid active chewing during the 12-week post-operative phase. This is to allow bone healing to occur, which will strengthen and secure your dental implants. If too much pressure or function is applied to the temporary teeth during the 12-week healing phase, an implant could loosen prematurely.
Q: Will my new teeth be comfortable?
A: Replacement of a full arch of teeth is a major change. You will need time to adjust to your new teeth’ appearance, shape, and position. As a result, you must avoid any significant function during the 12-week healing period after implant placement. Our team will ask you to return for several re-evaluation appointments to check and adjust your bite and ensure you perform optimal oral hygiene and feel well with your new teeth.
Q: How long can I wear the new temporary replacement teeth?
A: As the name suggests, your first set of replacement teeth is temporary. Although they are engineered to be strong and highly esthetic, you must proceed with a new set of more durable teeth with your dentist soon after the 12-week healing phase. Our office will confirm the stability of your implants at the 12-week time point and then refer you to start the “restorative phase” of your treatment with your dentist.
Q: How much does a full replacement of my teeth cost?
A: Our “All-In-One” treatment protocol is more efficient than traditional, delayed dental implant therapy. It involves fewer treatment visits, a shorter overall treatment time, and more predictable outcomes. As a result, we pass on these savings to our patients with a fixed case fee, which is significantly more affordable than traditional dental implant care.
Q: How much pain is involved in replacing all of my teeth?
A: We are very happy to say that our patients report very little discomfort following full arch treatment. Despite this treatment’s extensive nature, we take additional precautions to ensure your comfort throughout the wound-healing process.
