Missing teeth
If you're missing several teeth, you may want to understand the options for replacing them and whether full arch treatment is appropriate.
Suitability
Am I suitable for full arch dental implants?
Suitability depends on a clinical assessment of your mouth and general health. These five questions can help you organise your concerns before a consultation. They cannot tell you whether implants are suitable for you.
Question 1 of 5
Which best describes your situation?
What determines suitability for full arch implants?
Assessment considers your health, medications, jawbone, gums, bite and remaining teeth. It also considers how you will clean and maintain replacement teeth. Missing teeth or loose dentures can be reasons to seek advice, but they do not establish that full arch implants are the right option.
Your clinician should explain whether remaining teeth can be retained, what treatment alternatives are available, and the risks and ongoing care involved.
How full arch treatment is assessed and plannedCommon reasons to ask
Reasons to seek advice
Missing teeth, loose dentures and failing teeth can raise different treatment questions. A consultation can help you understand the assessment needed.
Loose dentures
If your dentures move or rub, you can ask about alternatives and whether an implant-supported option may suit you.
Failing or broken teeth
If teeth keep breaking or infection keeps returning, an assessment can help establish what can be saved and what may need replacing.
