How long does a full-arch bridge treatment take?

The process begins with extractions and any bone augmentation required (3 to 6 months). Implant placement follows, with 2 to 6 months of osseointegration depending on bone quality. Immediate loading with a temporary denture is possible where primary stability is good. Fabrication of the final bridge takes 4 to 6 weeks after the final impressions. Complex cases involving sinus lifts or bone grafts extend the overall timeline. Interim assessments check bone integration and tissue healing. Patients wear temporary restorations during the healing process. The total treatment time varies from person to person and with the clinical scenario.
