Full mouth dental implants replace all the teeth in either the upper or lower jaw using dental implants. The implants act as secure replacement roots and support a fixed or implant-retained set of replacement teeth.
Once healing is complete, the final teeth are fitted to restore comfort, function and appearance. Full mouth dental implants offer a stable, long-term alternative to removable dentures, without the movement or insecurity many people experience.
Full mouth dental implants may suit people who:
Are missing most or all of their teeth
Wear dentures and want a fixed solution
Have failing or heavily restored teeth
Struggle with loose or uncomfortable dentures
Want a stable, natural-feeling replacement
During your consultation, your dentist will assess your oral health and talk through whether full mouth dental implants are the right option for you.
There are several ways to replace a full arch of teeth using dental implants. Your dentist will recommend the most suitable option based on your oral health, bone levels and personal preferences.
Some patients have lower bone levels or more complex needs following long-term tooth loss. In these cases, additional planning or techniques may be required to support successful implant treatment. Your dentist will assess your jawbone carefully and explain any additional options clearly during your consultation.
Same day teeth
For suitable patients, temporary fixed teeth may be fitted on the same day as implant placement, offering comfort, confidence and reassurance during healing.
Fixed and secure
Full mouth dental implants stay firmly in place, with no slipping or movement, so your teeth feel stable and reliable day to day.
Natural look and feel
Your replacement teeth are carefully designed to blend seamlessly with your smile, restoring a full set of teeth with a discreet, lifelike result.
Eat and speak with confidence
A fixed set of teeth supports comfortable chewing and clear speech, helping everyday activities feel natural again.
Support facial structure
By replacing missing tooth roots, full mouth dental implants help maintain jawbone strength and facial shape following tooth loss.
A long-term alternative to dentures
Full mouth implants provide a secure, fixed solution without the need for removable dentures or adhesives.

Full mouth and full arch dental implants are often used to describe the same type of treatment. Both refer to replacing all the teeth in either the upper or lower jaw using dental implants. The term full arch usually means one jaw, while full mouth may refer to one arch or both arches together. Your dentist will explain exactly which area is being treated and which implant technique is most suitable for you.
Full mouth dental implant treatment is carried out using local anaesthetic to keep you comfortable, with sedation support available and mild soreness afterwards usually manageable with standard pain relief.
With good oral hygiene and regular dental care, full mouth dental implants are designed to provide a long-lasting, stable solution for tooth replacement.
Treatment is usually planned over several months to allow time for healing before final teeth are fitted. Your dentist will explain the expected timeline during your consultation.
Full mouth dental implants are carefully designed to match your facial features and smile, creating a natural-looking result that feels secure and comfortable.
