Full-arch dental implants
Fixed full-arch implant options, including single-arch and dual-arch planning where appropriate.
Could this treatment help you?
Full-arch treatment replaces a whole arch of missing or failing teeth with a fixed bridge carried on implants — All-on-4 being the best-known form. The teeth do not come out at night and do not rest on the gums like a denture.
Pearl Dental is a Straumann implant centre with a dedicated implant suite and on-site CBCT scanning, and its stated range runs from single implants to full-arch work, including immediate loading where the case suits it.
This may suit you if
Most or all of the teeth in one jaw are missing or beyond saving, and a removable denture is not the life you want. The CBCT assessment establishes whether your bone supports fixed full-arch treatment.
What it will not do
This is major planned surgery with healing time, and its success depends on the bone the scan finds, your gum health and smoking status — all discussed honestly before anything is agreed. Where full-arch treatment is not the right answer, implant-retained dentures or conventional dentures are laid out at the same visit.
- A fixed arch — no removing at night, no denture adhesive
- Planned from a CBCT 3D scan at a Straumann implant centre
- Every stage costed in one written plan before you agree
- Step 1CBCT assessmentThe bone is mapped in 3D and your options established honestly.
- Step 2Written planThe full sequence and complete cost, in writing, before consent.
- Step 3PlacementImplants are placed in the implant suite; where suitable, teeth can be fitted early.
- Step 4The final archThe definitive fixed bridge is fitted and the bite balanced.
Afterwards
Swelling and tenderness for some days after surgery is normal and managed. Long-term, the arch is cleaned daily as instructed and reviewed regularly — gum health around implants is what decides how long they last.

Questions patients usually ask.
How much does All-on-4 cost?
It is set by the written plan after the CBCT assessment — every stage costed before you agree. Finance for private treatment can be discussed at the same visit.
Can I get teeth the same day as surgery?
Immediate loading — fitting teeth soon after placement — is part of the practice’s range where the case suits it. Whether yours does is decided by the planning, not on the day.
Am I suitable if I wear dentures now?
Often, yes — long-term denture wearers are the classic full-arch patient. Bone shrinks under dentures over the years, which is exactly what the CBCT scan measures before anything is promised.
