Fixed full-arch implant teeth are one part of a full-service practice, and every one of these dental services is available in the same Timonium office.
Full-arch implant teeth, step by step
Here’s how a fixed full-arch set is planned and made, all in the local office.
Scan and plan
It starts with a CT scan and a personalized plan. At least 4 implants are basic to any good full-arch plan, and more are often suggested, especially where good bone support is lacking.
Extractions and implant placement
Any remaining teeth that need to come out are removed and the implants are placed, all in the local office. While the implants heal, temporary teeth are in place so you can chew comfortably.
Your final fixed teeth
Your new teeth are screwed or cemented onto the implants, supported by a custom-milled titanium bar, and a spare set is made for you. Choose high-strength denture teeth or custom ceramic teeth at additional cost.

“I came in knowing I’d have all of my teeth pulled — they were terrible and not worth fixing. Even I find it hard to believe these are not my real teeth. They look great, I feel and look younger, and I can eat anything I want with no trouble.”—Ed
“I came in with every tooth broken, patched, and filled… I have been thrilled with my new smile. I get compliments everywhere I travel and I am loving it. Thanks Doc!”—John
“I’ve been putting off some serious dental procedures because of anxiety… Dr Haywood has been awesome with me. I have had major bone loss and need multiple implants, and he has made the whole experience very easy.”—Amanda
“When I realized Dr. Haywood could give me implants that would be just like my natural teeth, I signed up immediately. After only a few painless visits, I had a smile like never before.”—Robert

A complete set of teeth that is screwed in or cemented onto implants, so it stays put. You may also hear it called All-on-Four or All-on-Five implants, a full fixed implant denture, a fixed hybrid implant denture, full fixed implant bridges, or “permanent dentures.” See all dental implant options.
At least 4 implants are basic to any good full-arch implant plan. More than the basic 4 are often suggested, and a lack of good bone support may lead Dr. Haywood to recommend more implants as your foundation.
They are the most like natural teeth: they don’t move or wobble while eating, and chewing is the most natural of all the options. They offer strength and long-term stability, they’re the smallest full replacement style available, they can last a lifetime with professional care, and the teeth themselves can be repaired if they chip or break.
Fixed teeth can’t be removed to clean underneath, and they are the costliest option. They only last with professional care, so plan for that expense too. Chewing strength is so high that the teeth can be expected to need service at some point, which is why a spare set is always made, so you don’t have to go without teeth.
Only the practice can remove the teeth, and food collects underneath however carefully you clean. Removing the set every 3–4 months is recommended in most cases, to clean and sterilize the appliance and screws, re-torque the screws, clean the implants and give you specialized cleaning tools. See implant care.
Fixed teeth stay in and feel the most like natural teeth, but they cost the most. Snap-on implant dentures are removable and cost less; a full upper snap-on set is roughly 30% less than a comparable fixed set. Dr. Haywood can go through both with you at a consultation. See snap-on implant teeth.
A hybrid implant restoration is mostly a plastic outer build with high-strength denture teeth as a starting point. For the ultimate durability and beauty, custom-made ceramic teeth are recommended, at additional cost. All-on-Four restorations are supported by custom CNC-milled titanium bars.
Yes. Plans from other offices, including large corporate implant centers, are often reviewed and a proposal prepared for you. Second opinions are always complimentary, and patients often find a personalized plan with a full range of restorative options more appealing.
Implants can support a full set of teeth in one day, and some implant replacements take only one day to complete. While implants integrate with the bone, temporary teeth are in place so you can chew comfortably. Whether that approach suits you depends on your scan and plan.
