How Many Teeth Can be Replaced with Dental Implants?

At SF Oral Surgery in San Francisco, our doctors specialize in the placement of dental implants that provide patients with the most advanced dental technology available. This state-of-the-art tooth-replacement option creates the groundwork to place prosthetic, natural-looking teeth for patients who have lost one or two teeth, or even an entire mouthful of teeth.

Regardless of whether you have a diseased tooth that needs to be removed, or you’ve lost several of your teeth, our doctors can place dental implants to replace the roots, crowns, functionality, and appearance of your natural teeth.

Traditional Dental Implants

When you visit our doctors for your first dental implants consultation, they will work with you to determine how many teeth you need to replace and develop a treatment plan that will work for your specific needs. When San Francisco patients are missing one tooth or just a few teeth, traditional dental implants are used. Even if you need to replace several teeth in a row, our doctors can utilize as few as one dental implant for every 2-3 teeth, depending on your needs.

After your dental implants have been placed, our doctors will provide you with new prosthetic crowns that are developed to precisely match your remaining teeth, so your smile will look natural. San Francisco men and women who need an entire arch of teeth or an entire mouthful of teeth replaced can choose another, less-invasive option—All-on-4 dental implants.

All-on-4 Dental Implants

When patients need a new arch of teeth or an entire mouthful of teeth, our doctors recommend All-on-4 dental implants to restore full oral function and aesthetics. These implants come with many benefits, but one of the most popular is that they only require 4-6 implants per arch of teeth. This means that our doctors are less likely to need to perform any pre-surgeries before the implants are placed because only healthy bone is used.

Patients in San Francisco choose All-on-4 dental implants when they:

• Have lost most of all of their teeth
• Want to replace their traditional dentures with a permanent solution
• Want to restore full oral function so they can eat, drink, and speak without concern
