Which arch(es) need full replacement?
Full-arch implants (All-on-4 / All-on-6) replace an entire upper or lower arch — or both.
Estimated monthly payments are illustrative examples, not offers of credit. The “from $X/mo” figure is the lowest published treatment cost divided by a 24-month term at 0% APR with $0 down. Patient financing is provided by third-party lenders (such as CareCredit or Cherry), not by Innova Smiles, and is subject to credit approval — not all applicants qualify, and approved APR, down payment, and term may differ. Promotional 0% APR offers apply only for the stated term to qualified applicants; longer terms are typically offered at a reduced, non-zero APR, and some promotional financing is deferred-interest (interest may be charged from the purchase date if the balance is not paid in full within the promotional period). Your actual cost depends on your diagnosis, treatment plan, and any insurance benefits.
What's Included in the Full-Arch Cost?
The total cost of a full-arch implant restoration is made up of several distinct components that vary by patient. Understanding each one helps you evaluate quotes accurately and know what to ask during consultations.
Implant placement
$6,000–$15,000 per archThe surgical fee for placing 4–6 titanium implants per arch into the jawbone. This is the most technically demanding step and accounts for 30–40% of total cost.
Bone grafting / sinus lift
$600–$5,000+ depending on extentIf bone volume is insufficient for implant stability, grafting procedures rebuild the foundation. Minor grafts are common; sinus lifts (for the upper arch) add significant cost. All-on-4 angulation often reduces the need for sinus lifts.
Tooth extractions
$350–$600 per toothRemaining teeth in the arch must be removed before implant placement. Most patients requiring full-arch restoration need 10–14 extractions per arch — typically billed as surgical extractions given the full-arch context.
Temporary fixed bridge (same-day teeth)
$1,500–$3,000 per archPlaced at the time of surgery — you leave with functional, fixed teeth on day one. Worn for 4–6 months during osseointegration.
Final prosthesis (acrylic or zirconia)
$8,000–$22,000 per archThe permanent, final-quality bridge delivered after osseointegration is confirmed. Zirconia is the premium, longer-lasting choice.
Sedation
$0–$3,000Most patients choose IV conscious sedation for this multi-hour procedure. General anesthesia is available for medically appropriate cases.
Frequently Asked Questions
- How much does All-on-4 dental implants cost?
- The total cost of All-on-4 dental implants in the United States ranges from approximately $15,000–$30,000 per arch, depending on geographic location, the number of extractions and bone grafts required, sedation type, and the final prosthesis material (acrylic hybrid vs. full-arch zirconia). A complete full-mouth restoration (both arches) typically ranges from $30,000–$60,000, and complex cases involving extensive extractions, major bone grafting, and premium full-arch zirconia on both arches can reach $90,000 or more. This calculator provides a personalized itemized estimate based on your specific case variables.
- What is the difference between All-on-4 and All-on-6?
- All-on-4 uses four implants per arch — two upright at the front and two angled at 30–45° toward the back to maximize contact with available bone and often avoid the need for sinus lifts. All-on-6 uses six implants per arch and provides a wider distribution of chewing forces, which can be advantageous for patients with more bone available or for the lower arch where biting forces are greatest. Both protocols support a fixed, non-removable full arch of teeth that looks and functions like natural dentition. The choice depends on bone volume, bite forces, and clinical preference established at your CBCT consultation.
- Are full-arch dental implants covered by insurance?
- The implant placement and prosthesis components are generally NOT covered by dental insurance, as most plans classify them as cosmetic or elective. However, extractions, bone grafting, and sometimes the surgical fee may be partially covered by your PPO plan (often 50–80% after deductible for major surgical services). Some medical insurance plans cover implants when tooth loss is caused by an accident, cancer, or a systemic condition — ask your insurance coordinator. Flexible financing through CareCredit and Cherry can spread the cost over an extended 0% APR promotional term (up to 36 months for full-arch cases) for qualified applicants, on approved credit; longer terms are available at a reduced, non-zero APR.
- How long does full-arch implant treatment take?
- The standard All-on-4 timeline is 4–6 months from surgery to final prosthesis. Day 1 (surgery day): extractions, implant placement, and temporary fixed bridge delivered. The temporary bridge is worn while the implants osseointegrate (fuse to the bone). At 4–6 months: if implants are stable and osseointegration is confirmed, the final zirconia or acrylic prosthesis is fabricated and delivered. Complex cases with major bone grafting may require additional healing time (2–4 months) before implants can be placed.
- What is the difference between acrylic and zirconia full-arch prostheses?
- Acrylic hybrid bridges (sometimes called PMMA or composite bridges) are the traditional starter option — lighter, easier to repair chairside, and less expensive ($8,000–$12,000 per arch). They are more porous and susceptible to staining and wear over time. Full-arch zirconia prostheses ($14,000–$22,000 per arch) are milled from solid ceramic blocks — extremely strong, stain-resistant, natural-looking (semi-translucent), and biocompatible. Zirconia is the premium long-term solution and is what most patients upgrade to. Both are fixed (non-removable) and screw-retained for easy professional removal at maintenance visits.
- What is included in a full-arch consultation at Innova Smiles?
- Your initial consultation includes: a comprehensive oral examination, a full-arch CBCT 3D scan (a $350–$600 value), digital smile design preview, a review of your medical and medication history, and a written treatment plan with itemized fees. Consultations are complimentary for full-arch implant cases. We also discuss financing options from CareCredit and Cherry at this visit, so you leave with a complete financial picture.
