Full Arch Dental Implants
Often referred to as all on 4 dental implants, full arch dental implants use a series of 4-6 implants placed in either the upper or lower jaw to anchor a full arch of prosthetic teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth.

Our oral surgeons use advanced pathology screenings, comprehensive exams, and biopsies to diagnose and treat oral abnormalities to give you clear answers and peace of mind.
