Implant-Retained-Dentures-1200x488.jpg

Full-arch dental implants replace all of the teeth in the upper or lower jaw with a fixed bridge that is anchored to a small number of implants. Treatments such as All-on-4 use four implants per arch to support a full set of teeth that stays in place and does not come out at night. Reedley Family Dental plans and places full-arch implant restorations at our office on W Manning Ave in Reedley, CA.

If you are missing most of your teeth, have failing teeth, or are tired of a loose denture, a consultation with 3D imaging will show whether full-arch implants are right for you.

Full-Arch Implants at a Glance

  • Who it is for: adults missing most or all teeth in one or both arches, or with teeth that cannot be saved
  • Implants per arch: usually four (All-on-4), sometimes more depending on bone
  • Result: a fixed set of teeth that you brush and clean but do not remove
  • Planning: exam, CBCT 3D cone beam imaging and a written treatment plan
  • Cost: depends on the number of arches, extractions, grafting and the final restoration; you receive a written estimate at your consultation

Full-Arch Implants vs. Dentures vs. Single Implants

Conventional dentures rest on the gums. They are the lowest-cost option, but they can move when you eat or talk, and the jawbone under them slowly shrinks over time. Learn more about dentures.

Implant-retained (snap-on) dentures clip onto implants for extra stability but are still removed for cleaning. See implant-retained dentures.

Full-arch fixed implants are attached to the implants and stay in your mouth. They feel and function more like natural teeth and help preserve the jawbone.

Single dental implants replace one or a few missing teeth when the rest of your teeth are healthy.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

Full-arch implants may be a good fit if you:

  • Are missing most of your teeth in the upper or lower jaw
  • Have several teeth that are badly decayed, broken or loose from gum disease
  • Wear a denture that slips, rubs or makes eating difficult
  • Are in good general health and able to have minor oral surgery

Smoking, uncontrolled diabetes and some medications can affect healing. We review your health history and imaging before recommending treatment, and we will tell you if another option would serve you better.

The Full-Arch Implant Process

1. Consultation and 3D imaging

We examine your mouth, review your health history and take a CBCT scan to measure the bone and plan implant positions.

2. Treatment plan and estimate

You receive a written plan that explains the steps, the timeline and the cost, so you can decide with all the facts.

3. Extractions and implant placement

Any teeth that cannot be saved are removed and the implants are placed under local anesthetic. Bone grafting or alveoplasty may be needed in some cases.

4. Temporary teeth

In many cases a temporary fixed set of teeth can be attached soon after surgery while the implants heal. We will tell you at your consultation whether this applies to you.

5. Healing

Over the following months, the implants bond with the jawbone. Follow our instructions after dental implant surgery.

6. Final teeth

Once healing is complete, your final full-arch restoration is made and attached, and we check your bite and fit.

Caring for Full-Arch Implants

  • Brush twice a day and clean under the bridge with a water flosser or special floss
  • Keep regular check-ups and professional cleanings
  • Wear a night guard if you grind your teeth
  • Avoid smoking, which raises the risk of implant problems

Frequently Asked Questions About Full-Arch Dental Implants

What is the difference between All-on-4 and full-arch implants?

All-on-4 is one type of full-arch treatment that uses four implants per arch. Some patients need more than four implants, depending on bone quality and bite. Both approaches support a fixed set of teeth.

Can I get teeth the same day?

In many cases a temporary set of teeth can be attached shortly after implant placement. Whether this is possible depends on your bone and how stable the implants are at surgery.

How long do full-arch implants last?

The implants can last many years with good home care and regular dental visits. The teeth attached to them may need repair or replacement over time, just like any restoration.

Is the procedure painful?

The surgery is done under local anesthetic. Most patients have soreness and swelling for several days afterward, which is usually managed with medication and the care instructions we give you.

Do I need bone grafting?

Not always. Full-arch designs often place implants where bone is strongest to reduce the need for grafting. Your CBCT scan shows whether grafting is needed.

How much do full-arch dental implants cost in Reedley?

Cost depends on whether you treat one or both arches, extractions, grafting and the material of the final teeth. We provide a written estimate after your consultation.

Do you accept insurance or Medi-Cal for implants?

Coverage varies by plan, and many plans cover only part of implant treatment. Call us and our team will review your benefits before treatment begins.

mini-implants-1200x488.jpg

Mini dental implants are smaller-diameter implants used to replace missing teeth or to hold a loose denture firmly in place. At Reedley Family Dental, mini implants use a titanium post and an attachment system to connect a replacement tooth or restoration to the implant. Whether mini implants are appropriate depends on your oral health, available bone, the location of the missing tooth, and your overall treatment needs.

Mini implants are also less expensive than regular dental implants. Call (559) 637-0123 to ask whether mini implants are right for you.

Mini Implants at a Glance

  • What they are: narrow titanium posts with an attachment that holds a tooth or denture
  • Common uses: stabilizing a loose lower or upper denture, and replacing some small missing teeth
  • Who it may suit: patients with limited bone, or who want a less involved option than standard implants
  • Planning: exam and imaging such as CBCT 3D imaging to check the bone
  • Cost: generally less than regular dental implants; you receive a written estimate at your consultation

Mini Implants vs. Standard Dental Implants

Standard dental implants are wider and are the usual choice for replacing single back teeth that take heavy chewing forces, and for supporting bridges or full-arch restorations.

Mini implants are narrower. They may be placed where there is less bone and often need a less involved procedure. They are commonly used to stabilize dentures, and may suit some small teeth. Because they are smaller, they are not the right choice for every tooth or every bite.

At your consultation we explain which type fits your mouth and goals.

Mini Implants for Loose Dentures

A denture that slips can make eating and speaking difficult. Several mini implants can be placed in the jaw so the denture snaps onto them, which helps keep it in place while still letting you remove it for cleaning. This is one form of implant-retained dentures. If you do not have dentures yet, learn about full and partial dentures.

Who May Be a Candidate?

Mini implants may be considered if you:

  • Wear a denture that moves or rubs
  • Have a small missing tooth in an area with limited space or bone
  • Prefer an option that may avoid bone grafting in some cases
  • Have healthy gums, or have had gum disease treated first

Smoking, uncontrolled diabetes and some medications can affect healing. We review your health history and imaging before recommending treatment.

The Mini Implant Process

1. Consultation and imaging

We examine your mouth, review your health history and take X-rays or a CBCT scan to measure the bone.

2. Treatment plan and estimate

You receive a written plan with the steps, the timeline and the cost.

3. Placing the mini implants

The mini implants are placed under local anesthetic. If teeth need to be removed first, see our tooth extraction services.

4. Attaching the denture or tooth

Your denture is fitted with attachments that snap onto the implants, or a crown is attached to the implant. We check your bite and fit.

5. Follow-up and care

We schedule follow-ups and give you written care instructions. Read our guide on what to do after dental implant surgery.

Caring for Mini Implants

  • Brush twice a day and clean around each implant
  • Remove and clean snap-on dentures every day
  • Keep regular check-ups and professional cleanings
  • Have worn denture attachments replaced when they loosen

Frequently Asked Questions About Mini Dental Implants

Are mini implants cheaper than regular implants?

Mini implants are generally less expensive than regular dental implants. Your exact cost depends on how many implants you need and the restoration they support; we provide a written estimate.

Can mini implants hold my denture in place?

Yes. Stabilizing loose dentures is one of the most common uses for mini implants.

Do mini implants hurt?

They are placed under local anesthetic. Mild soreness for a few days afterward is common.

How long do mini implants last?

With good home care and regular dental visits, mini implants can last many years. Denture attachments wear over time and may need replacing.

Are mini implants right for everyone?

No. Some teeth and bites need standard implants. We explain your options after your exam.

dental-implants-1200x488.jpg

A dental implant is a small post, usually made of titanium, placed in the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth. Once it heals, it supports a crown, bridge or denture. Implants can replace a single tooth or several. Reedley Family Dental offers dental implants in Reedley, CA, starting at $2,800.

Starting price From $2,800
Number of visits Several, spread over a healing period
Anesthesia Local anesthetic
Healing time Often several months before the final tooth is attached; we will give you a personal timeline at your consultation

Imaging Digital X-rays and 3D CBCT cone beam scans when needed
Location 929 W Manning Ave., Reedley, CA 93654 · (559) 637-0123

What Is a Dental Implant?

A dental implant has three parts:

  1. The implant post. It is placed in the jawbone and, over time, bonds with the bone. This is what acts as the new tooth root.
  2. The abutment. A small connector attached to the post that holds the visible tooth.
  3. The restoration. A crown replaces one tooth, a bridge replaces several, and a denture can replace a full arch.

Because the post sits in the bone, an implant helps hold the replacement tooth firmly in place, and it does not rely on the neighboring teeth for support the way a traditional bridge does.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Dental Implants?

You may be a candidate if you:

  • Are missing one or more teeth, or have a tooth that cannot be saved
  • Have healthy gums, or are willing to treat gum disease first
  • Have enough jawbone to hold an implant, or can have bone rebuilt with a bone graft
  • Are committed to brushing, cleaning between your teeth and keeping regular dental visits

Some conditions can affect healing and success, including uncontrolled diabetes, smoking and tobacco use, untreated gum disease, and certain medications or medical treatments. Tell us about your medical history so we can plan safely. An exam and imaging are the only way to know whether implants are right for you.

How Much Do Dental Implants Cost in Reedley?

Dental implants at Reedley Family Dental start at $2,800. Your final cost depends on:

  • How many teeth you are replacing
  • Whether you need a bone graft, an extraction or gum treatment first
  • The type of final restoration (single crown, bridge, or implant-retained denture)

We give you a written treatment plan and cost at your consultation, before any treatment starts.

The Dental Implant Process

The exact steps vary from patient to patient. A typical treatment plan includes:

1. Exam and imaging

We examine your teeth, gums and bone, and take digital X-rays. When more detail is needed, a 3D CBCT cone beam scan shows the bone’s height, width and the position of nearby structures.

2. Treatment planning

We explain your options, the timeline and the cost. If you have gum disease, we may recommend scaling and root planing before implant treatment.

3. Preparation, if needed

A tooth that cannot be saved may need to be removed. If the bone is thin or has shrunk, a bone graft can rebuild it. Some cases need time to heal after this step.

4. Implant placement

The implant post is placed in the jawbone under local anesthetic. You receive instructions for the first days of recovery. See what to expect after dental implant surgery.

5. Healing

Over the following months, the implant bonds with the bone. In some cases, a temporary tooth or denture can be worn while you heal. We will tell you at your consultation whether this is an option for you.

6. Final restoration

Once the implant is stable, the abutment and the final crown, bridge or denture are attached. We check your bite and fit, and schedule follow-ups.

Types of Implant Treatment We Offer

  • Single-tooth implant. One implant and one crown to replace one missing tooth.
  • Multiple teeth. Implants supporting a bridge to replace several teeth in a row.
  • Full-arch implants (All-on-4). A fixed set of teeth anchored to implants to replace all the teeth in the upper or lower jaw.
  • Implant-retained dentures. A denture that attaches to implants for a more stable fit than a regular denture.
  • Mini implants. A narrower implant that may suit some patients, such as those with limited bone or who need to stabilize a denture.

Your dentist will recommend the option that fits your bone, your bite and your goals.

Implants vs. Bridges vs. Dentures

Dental implant Dental bridge Denture
What it replaces One tooth to a full arch One or more teeth in a row Several or all teeth
Supported by The jawbone Neighboring teeth (crowns) Gums (or implants, if implant-retained)
Surgery needed Yes No No (for conventional dentures)
Neighboring teeth Not altered Usually reshaped for crowns Partials may clasp to them
Removable No (the post is fixed) No Yes (conventional dentures)
Bone preservation Helps stimulate the jawbone No No

The best choice depends on your health, budget and the condition of your remaining teeth. We will walk you through the pros and cons.

Caring for Your Dental Implants

Implants cannot get cavities, but the gums and bone around them can still develop disease. To protect your implant:

  • Brush twice a day and clean between your teeth daily
  • Keep regular exams and professional cleanings, so we can check the implant and surrounding gums
  • Avoid tobacco
  • Tell us if you grind your teeth, since a night guard may protect your restoration
  • Contact us if an implant feels loose, painful or if the gums around it are red or swollen

Why Choose Reedley Family Dental for Dental Implants?

  • Planning with imaging. Digital X-rays and 3D CBCT scans help us plan placement.
  • Complete care in one office. Extractions, bone grafting, gum care and the final crown or denture can be coordinated in one place.
  • Clear pricing. Starting price shown above, with a written plan before treatment.
  • Welcoming new patients. Walk-ins are welcome Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Implants

How much do dental implants cost in Reedley, CA?

Dental implants at Reedley Family Dental start at $2,800. The final price depends on the number of implants, whether you need a bone graft or extraction, and the type of crown, bridge or denture. We provide a written estimate at your consultation.

How long do dental implants last?

With good oral hygiene and regular dental visits, implants can last many years, and many last decades. The crown or denture attached to the implant may wear and need replacement sooner. Smoking, gum disease and teeth grinding can shorten an implant’s life.

Is getting a dental implant painful?

The area is numbed with local anesthetic during placement, so most patients feel pressure rather than pain. Some soreness, swelling or bruising is common for a few days afterward and is usually managed as your dentist directs.

How long does the dental implant process take?

It takes several months from start to finish in most cases, because the implant needs time to bond with the bone before the final tooth is attached. Extractions or bone grafting can add time. We give you a timeline at your consultation.

Am I a candidate for dental implants?

Most healthy adults with enough bone and healthy gums can be candidates. If you have bone loss, a bone graft may make implants possible. Uncontrolled diabetes, tobacco use and untreated gum disease can affect success. An exam and X-rays are needed to know for sure.

Can I get implants if I have bone loss?

Often yes. A bone graft can rebuild the bone first, or mini implants may be an option in some cases. Your dentist will review your imaging and recommend a plan.

What is the difference between a dental implant and a bridge?

An implant is anchored in the jawbone and replaces the tooth root. A traditional bridge attaches a replacement tooth to crowns on the neighboring teeth, which must be reshaped. A bridge usually does not require surgery.

Do you offer implant-retained dentures?

Yes. Implant-retained dentures attach to dental implants and stay more stable than conventional dentures.

Do you accept insurance for dental implants?

Coverage for dental implants varies by plan. Call us at (559) 637-0123 and our team will review your dental benefits before treatment begins.

What should I do after implant surgery?

Follow the written instructions we give you. You can read general guidance on our After Dental Implant Surgery page, and call us if you have heavy bleeding, worsening pain, fever or significant swelling.

Are you accepting new patients?

Yes. We are accepting new patients, and walk-ins are welcome Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM.
