Columbia Full Arch Dental Implants
A permanent solution for a complete smile restoration
The simplest way
to replace multiple missing teeth
Suffering from missing teeth and looking for a solution that’s not removable dentures? At Smile Innovations we’d love to introduce you to one of the most highly regarded treatment options that exist in the world of dentistry — full arch dental implants.
Our Columbia full arch dental implant system is often thought of as a modern denture hybrid. Why? Instead of replacing every single missing tooth with an implant, this approach restores your smile with just 4, 6, or 8 implants. From there, we permanently attach natural-looking dentures to the implants for a beautiful, fully functioning smile.
Why choose full-arch dental implants
Fewer Implants
Traditional dental implant techniques might require eight implants or more to restore a full arch of teeth. The All-on-4 technique reduces this to as few as four implants, which can be less invasive and more cost-effective.
In Just One Day
One of the most significant advantages of the All-on-4 technique is the ability to attach a temporary set of teeth on the same day as your implant surgery. You can have functional teeth immediately while waiting for the final prosthesis to be made.
Bone Grafting Not Usually Required
Because of the strategic placement of the implants, patients who might otherwise require bone grafting due to bone loss can often avoid this additional procedure.
Improved Quality of Life
You’ll benefit from improved oral functionality, the aesthetics of a full set of teeth, and the comfort and confidence of a permanent solution.
Answers to the most common questions about full-arch dental implants
Are full-arch dental implants worth it?
Yes! Our Columbia full-arch dental implants provide a permanent, natural-looking solution for
missing teeth. Unlike traditional dentures, they offer stability, comfort, and long-term benefits by
preserving jawbone health and preventing facial sagging.
How many implants do you need for a full arch?
Typically, four to six implants are placed in the jaw to support a full-arch prosthetic. This
approach ensures a strong foundation for your new teeth while minimizing surgical intervention.
How long do full-arch dental implants last?
With proper care, full-arch implants can last a lifetime. The implants themselves are made of
titanium and integrate with the jawbone, while the prosthetic teeth may need to be replaced after
10-15 years due to normal wear.
