Understanding the Full Mouth Dental Implants Treatment Process
At Fixed Teeth Australia, we offer All-Fixed Full Mouth Dental Implants, which are very similar to the All-on-4® approach, delivering exceptional results with fewer implants.
Unlike traditional dental implant procedures, All-Fixed Full Mouth dental implants offer a less invasive solution by using just four strategically placed implants to support a full arch of teeth. One of their standout benefits is their ability to replicate the look and feel of natural teeth. Implants restore both function and aesthetics, allowing you to chew comfortably and preventing bone loss in the jaw. Over time, implants fuse with the jawbone, providing a stable and permanent foundation for artificial teeth. Many individuals find that their new implants significantly improve their appearance, offering a natural and confident smile.
The journey to a renewed smile involves several key steps. As part of the process, we ensure that each phase is carefully managed to deliver excellent results. Here’s what to expect:
- Consultation – Begin your journey with a detailed assessment in a relaxed, judgment-free environment. Our team uses advanced imaging to evaluate your oral health and determine your suitability for All-Fixed Dental Implants.
- Diagnosis & Treatment Planning – Following your consultation, we develop a personalised treatment plan. Our in-house lab prepares your provisional teeth in advance, ensuring they are ready for fitting,often on the same day as surgery.
- Surgery & Immediate Teeth – Under sedation, four high-quality titanium implants are placed into your jawbone. Your provisional teeth are fitted within 24 hours, usually on the same day so you leave with a functional, confident smile.
- Healing & Final Teeth – Over the next few months, your implants integrate with the bone while you test your provisional teeth. Your final set of custom-made teeth is then crafted and fine-tuned for the perfect fit and comfort.
- Aftercare & Long-Term Success – Maintain your new smile with regular cleanings and simple hygiene routines. Our treatment protocol ensures long-term durability, backed by a 98% success rate* and a comprehensive implant warranty.

Essential Recovery Tips for Full Mouth Dental Implants
To promote effective healing and reduce discomfort, follow these key recovery tips recommended by our Fixed Teeth surgeons:
1. Rest and Allow Your Body to Heal
Give your body the rest it needs after surgery. Take it easy for at least 48 hours and avoid strenuous activities that may put unnecessary strain on your implants.
2. Manage Swelling and Discomfort
Swelling and mild discomfort are normal after surgery and usually peak within the first 48 hours. To minimise this:
- Apply an ice pack for 20 minutes at a time during the first day.
- Keep your head elevated while resting to reduce swelling.
3. Post-Surgery Pain Management
Post-surgery, any discomfort is usually manageable with over-the-counter pain relievers we supply you as part of your recovery kit. Follow the dosage instructions carefully for the best results.
4. Stick to a Soft Diet
In the first few days, opt for soft, easy-to-chew foods to avoid disturbing the implant sites. Consider foods like:
- Mashed potatoes, yoghurt, scrambled eggs, and smoothies.
- Avoid hot, spicy, or crunchy foods that may irritate the gums.
5. Maintain Gentle Oral Hygiene
Good oral hygiene is essential to prevent infection and ensure successful healing. While being gentle around the surgical area:
- Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and rinse with an alcohol-free mouthwash.
- Avoid vigorous rinsing or spitting during the initial healing phase.
6. Avoid Smoking and Alcohol
Smoking and alcohol consumption can hinder the healing process and increase the risk of implant failure. It’s best to avoid these habits during your recovery period.
7. Attend Your Follow-Up Appointments
We schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and ensure the implants are healing as expected. Attending these check-ins helps us identify and address any concerns early.
Long-Term Aftercare for Your Full Mouth Dental Implants
Once your implants have fully integrated, maintaining them is simple with regular care. To ensure years of confident smiles:
- Brush and floss daily to keep your implants and gums healthy.
- Schedule regular dental check-ups to monitor the condition of your implants and surrounding tissues.
- Avoid excessive force or grinding, which can affect the stability of your implants.
