Fixed dentures in Whittier replace a full row of teeth with a denture attached to dental implants, so it stays in when you eat, talk and sleep. Qualifying patients can leave with their fixed teeth the same day.
Our practice has completed hundreds of full-arch cases, including All-on-4 and All-on-6 treatments, and has placed more than 15,000 dental implants since opening in Whittier in 2003. Same-day fixed dentures and full-arch rehabilitation are a focus of our implant surgery.
Our lead implant surgeon is a Fellow of the International College of Oral Implantology and teaches hands-on implant courses to other dentists. Every case is planned with guided, CT-driven treatment, then placed and finished in this one office.

Meet Our Dentists
A removable denture rests on your gums and is held by suction or adhesive. A fixed denture is a full arch of teeth attached to implants in your jawbone. You brush and clean it in your mouth instead of taking it out.
The patients behind these reviews trusted us with their implants and their families’ care, some of them for decades.
“Best place for implants & dental works. I have tried several implants places before but this was the final place for my last 6 implants, crowns fit perfectly also.”
Always a pleasure to come see Dr. Tamir and Dr. Paz. I have been a patient for over 20 years.
I have the highest tegard for everyone in this office, and have always received the most sensitive and courteous service from everyone member of the staff!
I highly recommend Atlantic Dental. I have been a patient for 3 going on 4 years and it's always an amazing experience.
About 15% of Whittier residents are 65 or older, and households here average three people, according to the U.S. Census. Many of our fixed denture patients come in with an adult child or spouse who helps them weigh the decision, so we plan the consultation around the whole family’s questions.
More than four in ten Whittier residents speak a language other than English at home. Our English- and Spanish-speaking team can walk you and your family through your scan, your plan and your payment options in the language you are most comfortable with.
Everything happens at our office on Greenleaf Avenue, from your scan to your final teeth. If you also need a dentist in Whittier for checkups and cleanings afterward, you are already in the right place.
A fixed denture is the finished set of teeth. These are the implant treatments it sits on.
Every fixed denture sits on dental implants, so the implant plan comes first. If you are only missing a few teeth, single or multiple implants with crowns may suit you better than a full arch, and we will tell you which one fits after your scan.
All-on-4 is the most common way to hold a fixed denture: four implants support one full row of teeth. When your bone calls for more support, we plan the arch on six implants instead.
Your exam and scan decide whether you are a candidate. These are the situations that most often bring patients in.
Your denture lifts when you bite, rubs sore spots on your gums or needs adhesive every morning. A fixed denture is attached to implants, so it does not rest on your gums.
When several teeth in the same row are loose, cracked or decayed, replacing the whole arch with a fixed denture can take fewer visits than repairing each tooth.
If you have already lost most of your teeth on top, bottom or both, a fixed denture can replace each full arch with teeth that stay in.
A CBCT scan shows your jaw in 3D, so we see how much bone is available before we plan where each implant goes. Digital scanners record your bite and the shape of your gums.
Your fixed denture is then made through our in-house implant fabrication. We shape and shade the teeth so they look natural with your face, and we check how they bite as closely as how they look. Sedation options are available on the day your implants are placed.
Our benefits coordinator checks your PPO coverage before your visit, tells you upfront what your plan will pay, and submits the claims for you. We accept all PPO dental plans. We don’t accept state insurance.
For the balance, choose low initial payments, a monthly payment plan, CareCredit or Cherry financing.
Financing available
Low initial payments and monthly payment plans for qualifying patients.
PPO plans we accept
We work with PPO dental plans. Call us and we’ll confirm your specific plan before your visit.
Yes, for qualifying patients. A fixed set of teeth is attached to your implants on the day they are placed. Your exam and CBCT scan show whether you qualify, and we confirm it before your surgery date is set.
Of course. Many patients bring a family member to help them decide. Our team speaks English and Spanish, so everyone in the room can follow the plan and ask questions.
Plan on a consultation and scan, the day your implants are placed, and follow-up visits while you heal. We map out each visit for you at your free consultation, so you know what to expect before you start.
No. A snap-in denture clips onto implants but still comes out. A fixed denture is attached to the implants, so it stays in, and only your dentist removes it.
Your cost depends on how many implants each arch needs, whether we are treating one arch or both, and whether any teeth need to come out first. You get a clear number after your free implant consultation, and we check your PPO benefits and offer low monthly payments for the rest.
From diagnosis and treatment planning to implant placement and restoration, our doctors are directly involved in your care. Call Atlantic Dental & Orthodontics Of Whittier or request an appointment online.
