The short answer

Full-arch treatment replaces a whole row of teeth on four or six implants. The published range is ₩3.5M to ₩9.5M per arch, by plan. Whether it suits you is decided by examination and imaging, and your final price is confirmed after that in a written quote, so treat the range as a starting point rather than a quote.

What Full-Arch Implants Are

Full-arch treatment, often called All-on-4 or All-on-6, supports a full set of fixed teeth on four or six implants in one jaw. It is an option for people who have lost most or all of their teeth, or whose remaining teeth cannot be saved.

Instead of placing one implant for each missing tooth, the dentist places a small number of implants at chosen positions and attaches a single bridge-like set of teeth to them. This is why the approach can suit a jaw where bone is limited in some areas but sturdier in others.

How many implants are used depends on your bone and bite. Your dentist explains the choice after imaging, and neither four nor six is automatically better. What matters is that the number and position fit your jaw and the way you chew.

Full-arch work is a larger commitment than a single implant, in time, planning and cost. For that reason the first step is an unhurried conversation about what you want, what your mouth allows and what the alternatives are, including dentures and an implant overdenture.

  • A fixed set of teeth that is not taken out at night
  • Fewer implants than one per missing tooth
  • Planned from imaging; ask whether guided or navigation placement is planned for your case
  • Temporary teeth during healing are discussed at planning; your written quote shows what is covered

Full-Arch Implants for Taepyeong, Moran, Sujin and Bundang Residents

The clinic is by Taepyeong Station, Exit 5, in Sujin-dong, Sujeong-gu, Seongnam. If you live or work in Taepyeong, Moran, Sujin, Sinheung, Gachon or the Wirye New Town area, you can see your dentist without going into central Seoul.

Moran and Sujin are on the Line 8 side of the local map, and Moran and Bokjeong also appear on the Suin-Bundang Line, so many Bundang-side residents can plan a route by subway. We do not quote travel times; check your own route in a map app before booking.

Full-arch care involves several appointments: planning, surgery, review visits and the final fitting. Being able to return easily matters more than it does for a one-off filling, so think about how you will get home after surgery, especially if you choose sedation.

For full-arch treatment, an examination comes first. Our dentists will explain what is suitable for your case, and you can ask in English. The clinic is open Mon–Wed 09:30–20:30, Thu 09:30–19:00, Fri 09:30–18:30 and Sat 09:30–13:00, closed Sundays, with a parking garage in the building.

Am I a Candidate?

Candidacy is decided by examination and 3D imaging, not by age alone. Your dentist looks at bone volume, gum health, general health and what you want to eat and how you want to smile.

If bone is thin, a bone graft (₩100K to ₩1M by extent) or a sinus lift (quoted after CT examination) may be discussed. Some people can avoid these steps because of where the implants are placed, while others need them. That is a judgment made from your scan.

Health history matters. Tell the dentist about long-term conditions, regular medicines, allergies and whether you smoke, because these can affect healing and the surgical plan. Honest answers help the team plan safely.

It is also fair to ask whether full-arch is the right choice at all. For some people, an implant overdenture with a magnetic attachment (₩500,000) or a well-made conventional denture (complete denture ₩1,800,000 per arch) is a more suitable path.

  • Missing most teeth in a jaw
  • Remaining teeth are loose or badly damaged
  • Dentures no longer feel secure
  • Good enough health for surgery, to be confirmed

Full-Arch Prices

The range is wide because cases differ in implant number, brand and materials. Ask for a written breakdown after examination.

When you compare quotes, look at what the number buys. Does it include the temporary teeth, the final teeth, any grafting, and the sedation? A lower headline figure can hide items that appear later as separate charges.

Conscious sedation is a separate item, published at ₩300,000 (general) or ₩400,000 (with an anesthesiologist). CT scans and follow-up examinations have no published figure and are quoted after examination.

Keep every receipt and the written plan. If you claim through an overseas insurer, itemized documents are usually requested, and the clinic states that it supports that paperwork.

ItemPublished price
Full-arch (All-on-4/6)₩3.5M–₩9.5M per arch
Bone graft₩100K / ₩200K / ₩400K / ₩600K / ₩1M (by extent)

A Full-Arch Case from the Clinic

One example from the clinic’s records: a patient who had lived without teeth for several years came in believing implants would not be possible. After 3D diagnosis and computer planning, six implants were placed in the upper jaw and six in the lower jaw, and a digitally planned full-arch prosthesis was made for each.

Every full-arch case is different. The number of implants, whether bone grafting is needed and how quickly fixed teeth can be fitted all depend on your bone, gums and general health, and are explained in your written plan.

Temporary Teeth and Final Prosthesis Timeline

We do not promise a fixed number of months. Timing depends on healing and your case.

If you live abroad, tell the team early. The dentist can advise how the visits might be arranged around your travel, and what you should do if a problem appears after you fly home.

The temporary teeth are there to let you look and function normally during healing, but they are not the final result. Treat them gently, as advised.

Planning visit

Examination, imaging and a written plan. Ask about the implant count, brand and what the price covers.

Surgery day

Implants are placed. Ask in advance whether temporary teeth will be fitted and how they appear on your quote. Arrange for someone to accompany you, particularly if you use sedation.

Healing

If temporary teeth are part of your plan, you use them while the jaw heals. Follow your dentist's food advice and keep the area clean.

Review visits

Your dentist checks healing and the bite, and adjusts the temporary teeth if needed.

Final teeth

The final prosthesis is made and fitted once healing allows.

Sedation for Full-Arch Surgery

Longer surgery can be stressful. Conscious sedation is listed at ₩300,000 (general) or ₩400,000 (with an anesthesiologist). You can ask your dentist whether it suits you and what to arrange for the day, such as someone to accompany you.

Conscious sedation leaves you relaxed and drowsy while still able to respond. Local anesthesia is still used to numb the area. The dentist will explain what to expect and how to prepare, for example whether to eat beforehand.

After sedation, do not drive and avoid important decisions or work tasks for the rest of the day. Your dentist will give written aftercare advice and tell you whom to contact if you are worried overnight.

Full-arch implants after years of a loose lower denture

Why the patient came in

The patient had worn a lower denture for many years. It moved while eating and had to be removed and cleaned after every meal. The panoramic X-ray showed that long-term denture wear had left the lower jawbone low and thin.

What was done

  1. 3D CT and an intraoral scan were used to plan implant positions, angles and lengths on the computer before surgery.
  2. Eight implants were placed in the lower jaw, together with a bone graft.
  3. Fixed temporary teeth were connected to the implants the day after surgery.
  4. About three months later, custom abutments and the final full-arch prosthesis were fitted.

Published with the patient’s consent. Photos and X-rays are from the clinic’s records. Treatment plans and results differ for every patient; only an examination can show what is possible for you. Implant surgery can cause swelling, bruising or discomfort for some days, and implants need regular check-ups and careful cleaning to avoid peri-implantitis.

Full-Arch Implants for Aging Parents: What to Check Before Deciding15:13 · The Seoul Dental Clinic on YouTube
What this video covers

Starting from the sign that an older parent is avoiding meat, kimchi or hard foods, the dentists explain how full-arch implants work: a limited number of implants placed in strategic positions support a whole arch of teeth, rather than one implant per missing tooth. Four implants can be enough in some cases, such as a firm lower jaw opposing a denture, while softer upper-jaw bone, limited bone or strong bite forces may require more, so placement and bite planning matter more than the count. Using a full-arch kit, they show the fixtures, connecting abutments, temporary-tooth components and final prosthesis, and explain that a same-day temporary bridge is an interim step made of reinforced resin, not the finished zirconia teeth. They close with questions to ask at a consultation, the need for ongoing maintenance, and points families should review together when a parent is considering treatment.

  • Full-arch implants use a few well-positioned implants to support a whole arch
  • Same-day teeth are temporary; the final prosthesis is made later with more precision
  • Ask about bone condition, implant number and positions, final materials, grafting and maintenance

Full-Arch Implants: frequently asked questions

How much are full-arch implants?

The published range is ₩3.5M to ₩9.5M per arch, by plan. Your quote is set after examination.

Do I get teeth on the day of surgery?

Temporary teeth are not listed as an included item on the published schedule. Ask whether they are part of your plan; the final teeth follow after healing.

All-on-4 or All-on-6?

Your dentist chooses based on bone and bite. Neither is better for everyone.

Is bone grafting included?

No, it is a separate item if needed. Bone graft is published at ₩100K to ₩1M by extent, and your written quote shows exactly what the full-arch price covers.

Can I travel from abroad for this?

Many patients plan around trips. Ask for a schedule for your case, and tell the team early about your dates.

Is sedation available for surgery?

Yes. Conscious sedation is published at ₩300,000 (general) or ₩400,000 (with an anesthesiologist). Your dentist advises whether it suits you.

What if I only want something removable?

An implant overdenture with a magnetic attachment (₩500,000) is one option. Ask whether it fits your jaw.

How do I know if I am a candidate?

Only an examination with imaging can tell. Your dentist looks at bone, gums and general health before recommending a plan.
