Understanding Dental Implants: A Comprehensive Guide
Demystifying Full-Arch Dental Implants
At Premier Smile and Implant Center, we focus exclusively on full-arch dental implants, the life-changing solution that combines advanced technology, surgical expertise, and personalized care for patients with lost or failing teeth.
But what exactly are full-arch dental implants—and how can they restore your smile in just one day? In today’s blog, we’re discussing the who, what, where, when of it all.
What Are Full-Arch Dental Implants?
Full-arch dental implants are a state-of-the-art approach to replacing a complete set of missing or failing teeth. Instead of replacing each tooth individually, Dr. Keller places four or more dental implants in carefully chosen locations along your jaw. These implants act as anchors for a full arch of custom-made prosthetic teeth, providing a permanent, natural-looking solution.
This method is a breakthrough for patients who thought dentures were their only option. With full-arch implants, your new teeth look, feel, and function just like natural teeth—without the slipping, discomfort, or maintenance associated with traditional dentures.
How Does the Process Work?
At Premier Smile and Implant Center, we begin with a detailed consultation, discussing your goals, answering your questions, and designing a customized plan for your new smile.
Using advanced 3D imaging scans, Dr. Keller maps the exact structure of your jaw, any existing teeth, nerves, and overall oral architecture. This technology allows for pinpoint precision during surgery, minimizing discomfort and maximizing long-term success.
With our in-house dental lab equipped with the latest 3D printing and milling technology, we’re able to then fabricate your prosthetic teeth right here in our office in real time. That means no outsourcing, no uncomfortable waiting period, and no need for temporary teeth.
When you arrive for your procedure, you’ll be comfortably sedated while Dr. Keller performs any necessary extractions, places your implants and attaches your first set of custom-made teeth—all in just one day. You’ll walk out with a beautiful, functional smile.
The Latest Technology, The Best Results
The benefits of our state-of-the-art in-house lab include a dramatic turnaround time and a level of quality and customization that is difficult to match. In moments, we can digitally design your new teeth to fit your facial structure, enhance your appearance, and feel completely natural.
We use top-of-the-line materials, including zirconia, the same ultra-strong ceramic used in premium veneers, to create teeth that are beautiful, durable, and designed to last for decades.
Why Choose Full-Arch Implants?
Full-arch implants can offer a future free from the discomfort and limitations of missing teeth. You’ll enjoy restored chewing ability, clearer speech, and a smile that looks and feels like your own.
Perhaps even more importantly, studies have shown that replacing missing teeth with dental implants can dramatically improve self-esteem, emotional wellbeing, and social confidence (Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry).
At Premier Smile, we believe everyone deserves to experience the life-changing power of a healthy smile. That’s why we combine world-class technology, skilled artistry, compassionate care, and myriad payment options—so you can enjoy the results you deserve, starting today.
