A full arch of missing teeth can be replaced without an implant for every tooth. Just four implant posts are placed into the jawbone. The two back posts are tilted to make the most of the available bone. A full arch of fixed teeth is then secured onto these four posts. Unlike a removable denture, this bridge stays firmly in place. It restores a natural-looking smile and the ability to chew. The result is a stable, full set of teeth on four implants. This video is for general education only. It is not medical or dental advice. Ask your dentist what's right for you.
