A Supportive Place For Advanced Implant Care
Kington Dental is a private practice in Kington, Herefordshire, providing carefully planned full arch dental implant treatment for people from the Elan Valley and nearby areas such as Rhayader. You can expect clear explanations, thoughtful planning and a reassuring environment.
We take time to understand your goals, explain your options and pace appointments so you feel informed and supported from your first conversation through to ongoing aftercare.
Understanding Full Arch Dental Implants
Full arch dental implants replace a complete upper or lower set of teeth with a fixed bridge secured to dental implants. Sometimes called All-on-4 or All-on-6, the approach uses four to six implants positioned to support a full arch of replacement teeth. The result is a stable, fixed restoration that you do not remove at home.
In selected cases, a temporary fixed bridge may be fitted on the day the implants are placed, then replaced with a final, custom-finished bridge after healing. Your plan is based on a detailed assessment, including 3D imaging, so we can plan around your bone, bite and smile goals with care.

The Full Arch Dental Implants Process At Kington Dental
Your journey is organised step by step, with time to talk and ask questions before anything begins.
- Consultation And Goals. We discuss your aims, medical history and current concerns, then examine your mouth and gums to understand your starting point.
- Assessment And Imaging. 3D scans, photographs and bite records help us assess bone levels, jaw position and smile aesthetics, and identify suitable full arch options.
- Planning Your Options. You receive a written plan covering the sequence, expected timeframes and appointments, including any staged approaches or temporary solutions during healing.
- Implant Placement. Four to six implants are placed to support your new arch, following a carefully planned surgical guide for accuracy and comfort.
- Temporary Teeth And Healing. In selected cases, a provisional fixed bridge is fitted while your gums and bone integrate with the implants. We review you regularly and support your home care.
- Final Bridge And Aftercare. Once healing is stable, we fit your definitive bridge and refine comfort, function and appearance, then agree an ongoing maintenance routine.

What Full Arch Dental Implants Can Offer
- Fixed, Stable Feel. A securely attached bridge helps you eat, speak and smile without the movement associated with removable options.
- Everyday Confidence. Full arch restorations are designed to look natural and feel part of daily life.
- Streamlined Routine. You do not remove the bridge at home. Cleaning involves specific brushes and techniques we will show you.
- Bite Support. A well-planned arch can help distribute chewing forces more evenly than failing or missing teeth.
Our aim is to help your new teeth fit comfortably into daily life and support long-term oral health.
Who Full Arch Dental Implants May Suit
Full arch implants may suit people with many missing or failing teeth, or those who find removable dentures difficult to manage. They can be considered for the upper arch, lower arch or both, depending on your needs and goals.
Gum health, bone quality and general health are important factors. Final suitability is confirmed after an in-practice assessment with imaging. If full arch treatment is appropriate, we will explain the steps clearly and agree a plan that works for you.
How We Keep Your Care Clear And Supportive
- Time To Talk. We explain each step before anything begins, including alternatives where relevant.
- Written Plan. You receive a clear plan with appointments and expected timeframes so you always know what to expect.
- Gentle, Attentive Care. We check comfort throughout and adapt the pace if you need a moment.
- Structured Aftercare. Review visits, tailored cleaning advice and ongoing maintenance help protect your implants and bridge.
