I have been coming here since the beginning of COVID. I like all the dental hygienists here and love that this office has all the specialties so I don’t have to shop around.
Full Arch Dental Implants in Mission Viejo, CA
Replace an entire row of missing or failing teeth with a secure, natural-looking smile, often on as few as four implants.
If you are living with multiple missing teeth, failing dental work, or dentures that never feel secure, full arch dental implants can give you back a complete, fixed smile. Instead of replacing one tooth at a time, this approach restores an entire upper or lower arch on a small number of implants, often just four (a technique known as All-on-4, with All-on-6 using six). Sometimes called full mouth dental implants, this approach is planned and placed in one Mission Viejo office, start to finish.

Why Patients Choose Us for Full Arch Implants
4.9 stars across 1,300+ Google reviews. A full arch restoration is a significant decision, and that track record reflects how carefully patients are guided through it. Your treatment is led by Dr. James Vartanian, DDS, with 26 years of experience in implant and reconstructive dentistry and training at the USC School of Dentistry. Full arch cases often involve more than one specialty, and here they all work under one roof: the periodontist Dr. Richard Lee for gum and bone work, plus in-house surgical and restorative care. You are never shuffled between separate offices during a complex treatment.
“As an older guy, I was a bit nervous about getting restorative treatment, but Vartanian Dental Group made it a breeze. The team was super patient and took great care of me every step of the way.”

Cost & Financing
Full arch implants are a major restoration, and cost is the first question most people have. The total depends on which arch or arches you are restoring, the number of implants, the materials chosen, and any preparation like extractions or bone grafting. Because those factors vary so much, an honest number only comes after an evaluation. You receive one written quote covering your full treatment plan, with nothing hidden.
It helps to weigh value, not just price. A full arch restoration replaces a whole row at once, often costs less than an individual implant per tooth, and is built to last for years. We accept most PPO and HMO plans and verify your benefits, and CareCredit and Citi payment plans make treatment manageable. See our financing options.

How Full Arch Implants Work
The process is methodical, and we keep you comfortable and informed at every stage.
Detailed evaluation
We begin with a full oral health assessment and 3D imaging, take time to understand your goals, and design a treatment plan tailored to your anatomy. You see the plan and the full cost before anything begins.
Personalized design
Every smile is different. Your team designs the restoration around your oral health, your bite, and your aesthetic goals.
Implant placement
A small number of implants are precisely placed into the jawbone to create a secure foundation for your new arch, with comfort and accuracy prioritized throughout. Oral and IV sedation are available.
Healing and integration
Over the following months, the implants fuse with your jawbone through osseointegration, building long-term stability and strength.
Your final smile
Once integration is confirmed, your final fixed arch is placed, designed to look natural and feel secure.

Is Full Arch Right for You?
Full arch implants are often the answer for people who feel they have run out of good options. You may be a strong candidate if you have:
- Most or all teeth missing in an upper or lower arch
- Several failing teeth that are not worth saving individually
- Dentures that slip, click, or never feel secure
- Enough jawbone, or are open to grafting to rebuild support
- A desire for a fixed smile you do not remove at night
Even if you have been told you lack the bone for implants, modern techniques and in-house grafting mean many patients still qualify. The only way to know your options is a consultation with imaging.

We’ve Got You
A Secure Alternative to Dentures, Built in One Place
If you have worn traditional dentures, you know the frustrations: slipping, sore spots, and limits on what you can eat. Full arch implants are anchored to your jawbone rather than resting on your gums, so the smile stays put, lets you eat the foods you enjoy, and helps preserve the bone that dentures allow to shrink. If you would still prefer a removable option, we also offer dentures and can compare both honestly.
Because Vartanian Dental Group brings implant, surgical, periodontal, and restorative care together, your entire full arch journey happens with one team. You will find us on the first floor of Pacific Canyons Medical Center at 26302 La Paz Rd #203, just off the I-5 at the La Paz Road exit, with on-site parking. We treat patients from across Mission Viejo, Rancho Mission Viejo, Lake Forest, Laguna Niguel, Rancho Santa Margarita, and Aliso Viejo.
Open Monday to Thursday 8 AM to 5 PM and Friday 8 AM to 3 PM.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is All-on-4?
All-on-4 is a full arch technique that supports a complete fixed row of teeth on as few as four implants, while All-on-6 uses six for added support. By angling the implants to use available bone, both restore an entire arch without needing one implant per tooth.
How is full arch different from a single implant?
A single implant replaces one tooth. A full arch restoration replaces an entire upper or lower row of teeth on a small number of implants, which is far more efficient than placing an implant for every missing tooth.
Are full arch implants better than dentures?
They are fixed rather than removable, anchored to the jawbone rather than resting on the gums, and they help preserve bone that dentures allow to shrink. Many patients find they eat and speak more confidently. Whether they are right for you depends on your goals and oral health.
How long does the full arch process take?
It varies by case. After implant placement, the implants need a few months to fuse with the jawbone before the final arch is attached. Your personalized timeline is mapped out at your consultation.
Do full arch implants look natural?
Yes. The final restoration is designed around your facial features, bite, and aesthetic goals so the result looks natural and feels secure, not like obvious dental work.
Does insurance help with full arch implants?
Some PPO plans contribute toward implant treatment, and related steps like extractions may be covered. We verify your specific benefits before treatment, and CareCredit and Citi payment plans can spread the cost.
