FP1 Dental Implants

Is FP1 the Right Full Mouth Dental Implant Option for you?

What Is an FP1 Full Mouth Dental Implant Restoration?

An FP1 full arch dental implant restoration (often associated with “3 on 6” restorations or implant bridges) is a fixed, non- removable solution for replacing a full set of missing or failing teeth. It is designed to closely resemble natural teeth emerging from healthy gums, without the use of artificial pink material.

This type of full mouth dental implant solution is securely attached to dental implants, giving patients stable, permanent teeth with strong bite function and long-term reliability. With fixed dental implants, patients can eat, speak, and smile with confidence, knowing their teeth are fully supported and will not shift or come out.

Not everyone is a candidate for FPI. A detailed evaluation and advanced digital planning are necessary to determine whether this option is appropriate or if another full arch dental implant solution would be a better fit.

Benefits of FP1 Dental Implants

FPI dental implants offer several advantages for patients who qualify, including:

Most natural-looking result

Designed to replace teeth only, FPI restorations closely mimic natural teeth emerging from the gums.

Fixed and non-removable

The restoration is securely attached to dental implants, eliminating movement and the need for adhesives.

Strong bite and chewing function

FP1 dental implants restore function, allowing patients to eat a wide variety of foods with confidence.

Long-term durability

When properly planned and maintained, FPI dental implants are built to last for many years.

Improved comfort and confidence

Patients can speak, smile, and live comfortably without worrying about shifting or removable teeth.

What is the Difference Between FP1 and FP3?

FP1 and FP3 dental implants are both fixed, full-arch solutions, but they are designed for different levels of bone and gum support. To help you understand which option may be right for you, watch this short video from Dr. Russell.

FP1

  • Used in cases where patients still have most teeth, severe cavities, or a high smile line
  • Replaces teeth only, with natural gums visible between teeth
  • Slightly thinner profile

FP3

  • Commonly known as All-On-X, full mouth implants, or “teeth in a day”
  • Replaces both teeth and gum tissue
  • Ideal for patients who are already missing teeth or have bone loss/gum disease
