Full Arch Teeth Replacement Options: Dentures vs. Dental Implants
We understand that each patient has different needs and smile goals. That's why we offer three solutions to get you the new set of teeth you deserve: traditional dentures, implant supported dentures, and permanent full mouth dental implants. While dentures cost less up front, they aren't the most comfortable long-term solution. Implant supported dentures give you more stability, since they are attached to implants for better support. However, many patients want to avoid dentures, since they aren't permanent. We understand their concerns, which is why we help our patients explore every available option, so they can select the one that best fits their long-term needs and goals.
If you're looking for permanent full arch rehabilitation, we offer a variety of dental implant options in teeth replacement. With our All-On-X procedure, our team can attach a fixed bridge of teeth with four or more implants secured in your jawbone — as an All-on-4 (four implants) or All-on-6 (six implants) restoration, depending on your bone and goals. This solution permanently replaces all your failing or missing teeth. Dr. Azar, our cosmetic and implant dentist in South Florida with specialized training and years of experience successfully placing dental implants, leads our diverse team of implant and cosmetic dentists in South Florida. With personalized treatment, one-on-one attention, the latest technology and a five-year warranty on our crowns, bridges and implants, Smile Design Dental is a leading provider of full arch dental implants in the Fort Lauderdale area.
Just imagine how much your life will change after a smile transformation gives you a gorgeous smile and lasting confidence!

How Many Implants Are Needed for a Full Mouth?
A full set of teeth doesn't require one implant per tooth. Because dental implants fuse with your jawbone and act as sturdy anchors, a full arch — upper or lower — can typically be restored with just four to six implants. Many patients are treated with an All-on-4 approach (four implants supporting a full, fixed arch), while cases with more bone loss or a preference for extra stability may use six or more (All-on-6). During your consultation, our team uses 3D imaging to map your bone and determine the exact number of dental implants your smile needs.
All-on-4 vs. All-on-6 vs. Implant-Supported Dentures
Not every full-arch solution is the same. Here's how the most common options compare:
All-on-4
Four implants anchor a full, fixed arch of teeth — often placed in a single day. The most cost-effective permanent option for most patients.
All-on-6
Six implants add extra support and stability, ideal for patients with adequate bone who want maximum durability.
Implant-Supported Dentures
A denture that snaps onto implants — far more stable than traditional dentures, and more affordable than a fixed full-arch, though it's removable.
Traditional dentures rest on the gums and can slip; every implant option above stays secure and helps preserve your jawbone.
The Full Mouth Dental Implant Procedure
Congratulate yourself for taking the first step of an extraordinary journey! During this appointment, you can expect smiles all around. We’ll discuss your goals, concerns, and relevant health conditions. Then, we’ll capture images of your mouth and conduct an oral examination. Your current oral condition helps us determine whether you are a candidate for dental implants. However, don’t worry if you’re not quite ready due to gum disease or infection. We offer comprehensive dental services that can not only help you to become a candidate for implants, you can undergo preliminary treatments right here!
We can show you some “before and after” photos of real patients who received dental implants at Smile Dental Design, and we’ll go over dental implant pricing, insurance coverage and financing options with you in detail, so there won’t be any surprises. If you move forward on your dental implant journey, our south Florida implant dentist Dr. Azar will design a meticulous surgical plan with the exact angle, depth and location to maximize function and smile esthetics.

Recovery & What to Expect
Full mouth dental implant recovery is smoother than most people expect. Here's the typical journey:
Day 1–2
Most patients return to everyday activities, with mild swelling that fades over the first week.
3–6 Months
Your implants bond with the bone — a process called osseointegration. You wear a set of provisional teeth, so you're never without a smile.
Your Final Smile
Once healing is complete, we place your final, permanent teeth.

How Much Do Full Mouth Dental Implants Cost?
Your investment depends on a few things: how many implants you need, whether you’re treating one arch or both, any preparatory work like extractions or bone grafting, and the materials chosen for your final teeth. Because every smile is different, the most accurate figure comes from a personalized evaluation — and we make treatment easy to fit your budget.
What affects your cost
- Number of implants (All-on-4 vs. All-on-6)
- One arch or both (upper and lower)
- Extractions or bone grafting, if needed
- Materials for your final teeth
Full mouth dental implants cost more than other options like dentures, so you may be wondering if dental implants are worth the cost. The simple answer is “yes”! Dental implants are definitely worth every penny, because the rewards outlast the costs. We’ve seen lives completely transformed after receiving a new smile. Without stress, pain or low quality of life holding them back, our full mouth patients have overcome low self-esteem and learned to love the smiling face in the mirror. Their entire outlook improved, and huge obstacles like enjoying food and smiling became simple pleasures. You can’t put a price tag on true joy!
However, we understand your financial concerns, so we do everything possible to eliminate the financial barriers for you. Although insurances offer limited to no coverage for implants, our patient coordinator will still file insurance claims on your behalf, so you receive any available benefits. We partner with the top financing companies to connect you with a dental implants payment plan to match your budget. Plus, Smile Design Dental offers in-house financing! In fact, there are so many ways we are making dental implants affordable, the journey to your new smile is just a phone call away!
Find Out If You're a Candidate for Full Mouth Dental Implants
Wondering if full mouth dental implants are right for you? Most adults with several or all missing or failing teeth are candidates — even if you've been told otherwise in the past. A quick evaluation is the surest way to know, but here's what typically qualifies you.
You may be a candidate if…
- You're missing most or all of your teeth, or your teeth are failing
- You have healthy gums — or gum disease that can be treated first
- You have enough jawbone, or you're open to a bone graft to rebuild it
- You're in generally good health and ready for a permanent solution
What if I don't have enough bone?
Not enough bone doesn't have to mean "no." Procedures like bone grafting or a sinus lift can rebuild the support your implants need — turning many patients who were told they weren't candidates into great ones.
Can I get implants after an extraction?
Absolutely. Full mouth dental implants are an excellent choice after a full-arch extraction. In many cases we can place implants the same day, or after a short healing period — so you move straight to a permanent new smile.
