Full-Arch Implant Reconstruction
(All-on-X)
Overview
Full-arch implant reconstruction is designed to restore an entire set of teeth using a fixed, implant-supported solution. This approach provides stability, function, and a natural appearance without the need for removable dentures.
What It Is
This treatment uses a strategic number of dental implants to support a full set of teeth for the upper or lower jaw. The implants act as anchors for a fixed prosthesis, restoring both function and aesthetics.
Who It’s For
Patients missing all or most of their teeth
Patients currently wearing dentures and seeking a fixed alternative
Patients with failing teeth who require full-mouth rehabilitation
What to Expect
Treatment begins with a comprehensive evaluation and planning phase, including imaging and coordination with the restorative dentist.
In many cases, implants can be placed on the same day as tooth removal, with a temporary set of fixed teeth provided during the healing phase. After integration, a final restoration is completed for long-term function and aesthetics.
Each case is planned individually based on bone availability, bite, and overall restorative goals.
Approach
Dr. Kernitsky approaches full-arch reconstruction with an emphasis on detailed planning, precise implant positioning, and long-term stability.
Treatment is coordinated from the outset with the final restoration in mind, ensuring that implant placement supports both function and aesthetics. When necessary, bone, soft tissue and/or sinus augmentation procedures are performed to create a stable and predictable foundation.
The goal is not only to restore teeth, but to provide a solution that is durable, maintainable, and aligned with each patient’s long-term oral health.
Common Questions
Can I have teeth the same day?
In many cases, a temporary fixed restoration can be provided on the day of surgery, allowing patients to leave with teeth while healing occurs.
Is this better than dentures?
Implant-supported restorations provide greater stability, improved function, and a more natural feel compared to removable dentures.
How long does treatment take?
While initial procedures may be completed in a short time frame, the full process includes a healing phase before the final restoration is delivered.
What if I don’t have enough bone?
In some cases, treatment can be adapted to existing bone. In others, additional procedures may be recommended to improve long-term outcomes.
