Full-Mouth Dental Implants
in Phoenix, AZ
When a whole arch of teeth is failing, four replacements compete: All-on-4, All-on-6, snap-in implant dentures, and conventional dentures. Dr. Taylor Field restores full arches with All-on-4 or implant-retained dentures at Sonoran Dental Arts in Phoenix, and an exam with a 3D image shows which your bone supports. Call (602) 861-0505.
Full-mouth dental implants replace every tooth in the upper or lower arch on a handful of implants instead of one implant per tooth. This page compares the ways to do it, and the one way that uses no implants at all.

Four Ways to Replace a Full Arch
When every tooth in an arch is failing or already gone, patching tooth by tooth stops making sense and the choice becomes which full-arch replacement fits your bone and your budget. These are the four.
- All-on-4: a fixed bridge carried by four implants, with the back two angled to use the bone you still have
- All-on-6: the same fixed bridge on six implants, for jaws with bone to spare
- Implant-retained dentures: a removable arch that snaps onto two to four implants and comes out at night
- Conventional dentures: a removable arch held by suction, with no implants and no surgery
Fixed Arch or Snap-In: The Real Decision
For most patients the choice narrows to a fixed arch or a snap-in denture. The fixed arch stays in your mouth, chews closest to natural teeth, and costs the most. The snap-in holds far better than suction, comes out nightly for cleaning, and costs less because it uses fewer implants and a different arch. What usually decides it is budget and how much the nightly removal bothers you.
Where All-on-6 Fits
All-on-6 spreads the chewing load across six implants instead of four. It needs more bone and adds surgical and parts cost, and in a jaw with good bone it buys redundancy: if one implant fails, five still carry the bridge. In a jaw with less bone, the angled All-on-4 placement is often the version that actually fits.
What About a Conventional Denture?
A conventional denture is the lowest-cost option and the only one with no surgery. It also puts no chewing force into the bone, so the jaw keeps shrinking under it, and lower dentures in particular tend to move when you chew. Patients who are comfortable in a well-made denture have no reason to change. Patients who reline theirs every couple of years and still avoid certain foods are the ones who end up asking about implants.
How to Decide
An exam and a 3D image of the jaw, then the options your bone actually supports, each with a written price. Some patients hear that a snap-in serves them better than a fixed arch; some hear the opposite. Nothing starts until you have agreed to a quote.
The All-on-4 cost page explains what moves a full-arch quote, and the tooth replacement options page covers single teeth and smaller gaps the same way.

Common questions
What are full-mouth dental implants?
An upper or lower arch of replacement teeth carried on a small number of implants, either fixed in place (All-on-4 or All-on-6) or removable (a snap-in implant denture).
Which is better, All-on-4 or All-on-6?
Neither by default. Six implants add redundancy and cost and need more bone; four angled implants fit more jaws. The 3D image decides which your bone supports.
Is a snap-in denture as good as a fixed arch?
It holds far better than a suction denture and costs less than a fixed arch. It still comes out nightly and rests partly on the gums, so a fixed arch chews closer to natural teeth.
Can I still get implants after years in dentures?
Often, yes. Bone shrinks under a denture, and the angled All-on-4 placement was designed for exactly that jaw. A 3D image gives the real answer.
How much do full-mouth dental implants cost in Phoenix?
Each option is priced per arch and quoted per case. Dr. Field puts the whole sequence in writing after an exam, and nothing starts before you agree to it.
