- Plan your treatment
We assess your mouth, review scans, and explain the surgical and restorative plan.
- Surgery and temporary teeth
Implants are placed and temporary teeth are fitted when the implants are stable enough. These teeth need protection while you heal.
- Early reviews
Your plan usually includes a visit in the first week or two, then a review around six weeks. Imaging is decided by your doctor.
- Healing evaluation
Around three months, we assess the implants and supporting bone. A revision may be recommended if an area needs more treatment.
- Final teeth
When healing and implant support are ready, we make and fit the final teeth. Your actual timing may differ.
About the procedure
Full-arch treatment uses several implants to support a full row of replacement teeth. All-on-X describes this approach; the number and position of implants depend on your case.

At Drill Dental
We plan the whole arch before surgery, including the temporary teeth, your bite, and your follow-up care. Your treatment is adapted to your bone, health, and healing. When appropriate, temporary teeth are fitted at surgery; your doctor will explain whether this is possible for you.
