What are full mouth dental implants?
What are full mouth dental implants?
Full mouth dental implants replace an entire upper arch, lower arch, or both, using a set of implants to hold a full bridge of teeth. Rather than one implant per tooth, a small number of implants (usually four to six per arch) supports a complete row of teeth. The result is fixed teeth that look and function naturally.
Your full-arch options
All-on-4
Four implants per arch support a fixed bridge. Often no bone graft is needed and same-day temporary teeth are possible. See our dedicated All-on-4 page.
All-on-6
Six implants per arch give extra support and load distribution, often chosen for the upper jaw or where more strength is wanted for a larger or heavier bridge.
Implant-retained (snap-in) dentures
Two to four implants secure a removable denture that clips firmly into place. It is more stable and comfortable than a conventional denture, removable for cleaning, and a lower-cost entry
Fixed bridge vs implant-retained denture
The right choice depends on your budget, bone and preferences.
- A fixed full-arch bridge (All-on-4 or All-on-6) stays in permanently and feels closest to natural teeth.
- An implant-retained denture clips in and out for cleaning, costs less, and still stops the slipping and rubbing of an ordinary denture.
We talk you through both at your consultation so you can choose with confidence.

Full Mouth Implants FAQs
How much do full mouth dental implants cost in Joondalup?
At Dental at Joondalup, a fixed full-arch solution starts from $19,000 per arch, and implant-retained dentures start from $22,000 . Both arches cost more than one. You receive a fixed written quote after your consultation.
What is the difference between All-on-4 and All-on-6?
Both support a full arch of fixed teeth. All-on-4 uses four implants and All-on-6 uses six, giving extra support and load distribution. Which suits you depends on your bone and the bridge you choose.
Can all my teeth be replaced with implants?
Yes. A full arch of teeth can be replaced with as few as four to six implants per arch, so you do not need one implant for every tooth. Both the upper and lower jaw can be treated.
Are full mouth implants better than dentures?
For most people, yes. They are fixed or firmly clipped in, so they do not slip, they let you eat normally, and they preserve the jawbone, which conventional dentures do not.
How long do full mouth implants last?
The implants can last decades and often a lifetime with good care. The bridge or denture on top may need refreshing or replacing after many years of normal wear.
