Achieve the New Smile You’ve Been Wanting

A smile is a part of your identity. When all or part of it is missing, the board-certified surgeons at The Oral Surgery & Dental Implant Specialists of San Diego have a solution. A full-arch restoration procedure uses four to six dental implants to support a fixed prosthesis, leaving you with a brand new, fully functioning smile.

Benefits of a Full-Arch Restoration

  • Less post-operative healing time, discomfort, swelling, and bruising.
  • Fully functional: eat the foods you love without any worry.
  • Prevents bone loss and preserves jaw health and facial aesthetics.
  • Supports an entire arch of new teeth with as few as four to six dental implants.
  • Prosthesis is custom-made to match your mouth and aesthetic goals.
  • Cared for just like natural teeth with regular brushing and flossing.

"Hello, I'm Judy. I live in El Cajon. I had a full-arch procedure with Dr. Koshgerian. Dr. Koshgerian was very easy to work with. I felt like he just took me under his wing right away, and he's just wonderful — he really is. I just feel like family now. They're fun, and so you come in here, you don't think about you being at a dentist's office or a surgeon's office. The surgery went well. They told me that I did great. I really healed pretty fast. I had no pain. Everyone said, "Oh, it must be painful." I said "No, it was just wonderful." It really was. I can't say it enough. I had a great experience, and I highly recommend The Oral Surgery & Dental Implant Specialists of San Diego."
