Full Mouth Dental Implants in Agoura Hills
If you're getting by with a loose denture, a mouth full of failing teeth, or a mix of crowns and bridges that keep needing repair, the problem often goes beyond any single tooth. It may be the whole arch. Full mouth dental implants replace an entire upper arch, lower arch, or both with a fixed set of teeth anchored to implants in your jawbone. At 805 Dentistry, our Thousand Oaks office regularly helps Agoura Hills patients work through this decision, from the first scan to long-term care, without having to coordinate between several separate offices.
Full mouth dental implants use a small number of implants placed strategically in the jaw to support a complete arch of replacement teeth. Rather than placing one implant for every missing tooth, approaches such as All-on-4, All-on-6, and other All-on-X designs spread the support across several implants that together hold a full bridge of teeth. Some patients choose a fixed arch that stays in place. Others prefer implant-supported dentures or snap-in dentures, which attach securely to implants but can be removed for cleaning.
These options address a wide range of situations. Some patients are already wearing complete dentures and want something more stable. Others still have their natural teeth but are dealing with advanced decay, gum disease, or repeated failed dental work. Some need both arches restored as part of a broader full mouth reconstruction. Because we offer extractions, bone grafting, sinus lift surgery, and gum disease treatment in-house, we can plan for whatever condition your mouth is in today.
Many of the Agoura Hills residents who come to us have put off this conversation for years, often because they expect to be sent to multiple specialists. Our team includes a board-certified periodontist who places dental implants and provides implant maintenance, a board-certified oral and maxillofacial radiologist who reviews CBCT scans, and a board-certified dental anesthesiologist for patients who want sedation. Dr. Dar Radfar and our team coordinate these steps under one roof.
We also have an on-site dental lab, which helps us communicate directly about the fit, shape, and look of your new teeth. For patients in Agoura Hills, keeping planning, surgery, restorations, and follow-up visits in a single office means fewer handoffs and a clearer path through treatment.
Am I a good candidate for full mouth implants?
Many adults who are missing most or all of their teeth, or whose remaining teeth can't be saved, may be candidates. The deciding factors are usually the health of your gums, the amount and quality of jawbone available, and your overall health, all of which we evaluate before recommending a plan.
Bone loss doesn't automatically rule you out. We use CBCT imaging to see your jaw in three dimensions, and when bone is thin, bone grafting or a sinus lift in the upper jaw may help create the support implants need. If gum disease is present, we treat it first so your implants start in a healthy foundation. If dental anxiety has kept you from treatment, we offer nitrous oxide, oral sedation, IV sedation, and general anesthesia.
What happens during the treatment process?
The process starts with a consultation and 3D imaging so we can map where implants should go and discuss which type of arch fits your goals. From there, treatment generally follows these stages:
- Evaluation, CBCT scan, and a personalized treatment plan
- Any needed extractions, bone grafting, or gum treatment
- Implant placement, with sedation options available
- A healing period while the implants bond with the bone
- Fitting and adjusting your final arch of teeth
Timelines vary from patient to patient depending on healing and whether preparatory procedures are needed. We walk you through your specific sequence before anything begins, so you know what each visit involves.
How do I care for full mouth implants afterward?
You care for implant teeth with daily brushing, careful cleaning around and under the arch, and regular professional visits. Implants can't decay the way natural teeth do, but the gums and bone around them still need attention to stay healthy.
Our periodontist provides implant maintenance, which includes checking the tissue around your implants and cleaning areas that are hard to reach at home. We'll show you how to clean your specific type of restoration, whether it's fixed or removable. If you grind your teeth at night, we can also discuss a night guard to help protect your new arch.
How can I pay for full mouth dental implants?
We accept all major PPO insurance plans, welcome self-pay patients, and offer financing. Coverage for implant treatment varies widely by plan, so we review your benefits with you and explain what your insurance may contribute.
Because every plan is built around your mouth, cost depends on how many implants you need, which restoration you choose, and whether grafting or extractions are part of treatment. After your consultation, we'll give you a clear breakdown and talk through financing options so you can plan with confidence. If you're in Agoura Hills and ready to explore a full-arch solution, our team is here to help you take the first step.
