How Full Mouth Dental Implants Work: Procedure, Healing & Timeline
- November 27, 2025
From the expert perspective of Sinha Dental Clinic, Lucknow
Losing most or all of your teeth affects chewing, confidence, and long-term oral health. Full mouth dental implants offer a permanent, stable, and natural-looking solution that replaces all missing teeth with implant-supported prosthetics. At Sinha Dental Clinic Lucknow, we use advanced planning tools and modern implant systems to restore full smiles with precision and comfort.
What Are Full Mouth Dental Implants?
Full mouth dental implants replace an entire arch of teeth (upper, lower, or both) using 4 to 8 dental implants strategically placed in the jawbone. These implants act as artificial roots and support fixed teeth.
This procedure is stronger and more comfortable than dentures, and helps preserve jawbone density.
Benefits of Full Dental Implants
- Permanent Solution — No removal like traditional dentures
- Natural Feel — Eat, speak, and smile confidently
- Bone Preservation — Prevents bone loss and facial sagging
- Long-Term Investment — Implants often last decades with proper care
- No Slipping — Unlike removable dentures
Types of Dental Implants (Common for Full Mouth Restoration)
1. All-on-4 Implants
4 implants per arch
Ideal for patients with moderate bone loss
Minimally invasive
Often allows same-day temporary teeth
2. All-on-6 Implants
6 implants per arch for extra strength
Recommended for stronger support and long-term durability
3. Zygomatic Implants
Used when upper jaw lacks bone
Anchored in cheekbone (zygomatic bone)
Avoids bone graft surgery
4. Implant-Supported Dentures
Implants hold the denture in place
Removable dentures but with high stability
At Sinha Dental Clinic Lucknow, we recommend a system based on bone condition, budget, and smile goals.
Step-by-Step Dental Implant Procedure
1. Consultation & Digital Planning
Oral exam
3D CBCT scan
Bone & gum evaluation
Selection of implant type & placement plan
2. Tooth Extraction (if required)
Any damaged or infected teeth are safely removed.
3. Bone Grafting (if needed)
If jawbone volume is low, grafting helps create a solid foundation.
4. Implant Placement
Titanium implants are placed into the jawbone under local anesthesia or conscious sedation.
5. Temporary Teeth (Same-Day in Many Cases)
Patients may leave with fixed temporary teeth, ensuring no gap and natural aesthetics.

You may be a perfect candidate if:
You wear dentures or hate them
