DIEM® Full-Arch Restoration
Restore Function to Your Smile
DIEM full-arch tooth replacement is a life-changing treatment that offers patients in need of a brand new smile a faster procedure and healing time at a fraction of the cost of other replacement options. During the procedure, Dr. Lieblick and Dr. Rehrer carefully insert between four and six dental implants into the upper or lower jaw. Then, a fixed denture is attached to the implant posts, and you leave our office with a brand new, permanent, fully functioning smile.
When you have lost the majority of your teeth, options such as removable dentures or numerous implants can be expensive and the recovery can be time consuming. Full-arch restoration provides fully functioning teeth that are designed to last a lifetime with proper care. Beacon Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons changes the lives of our patients in Gresham, The Dalles, Milwaukie, OR, and Camas, WA, by offering this permanent, natural-looking solution to missing teeth.
Benefits of Full-Arch Restoration
- Only One Surgical Appointment. The new replacement teeth can be attached to the implants during the same appointment and avoid the delay that accompanies many other surgical procedures used to replace teeth. This allows patients to start enjoying the benefits of their new arch of teeth right away.
- Preserve Jaw Bone Health. The fixed denture uses dental implants to anchor the prosthesis. The implant posts fuse to your jaw bone, keeping it strong and healthy over time. Removable dentures do not preserve the jaw bone.
- Long-Term Results. Because the implants fuse to the jaw bone, your fixed prosthesis becomes a permanent part of your smile. It remains in your mouth during eating and cleaning and will last for many years with proper care.
- Restored Self-Esteem. Your new smile will look and function just like a set of healthy, natural teeth. You can eat and laugh with confidence and have peace of mind knowing that your full-arch restoration actively keeps your jaw bone healthy while preserving your facial structure.
If you’re ready to achieve a complete smile you can be proud of, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with Dr. Lieblick and Dr. Rehrer. Beacon Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons is here to improve your oral health while providing top-notch patient experiences every step of the way. We have offices located in Gresham, The Dalles, Milwaukie, OR, and Camas, WA.
Experience the DIEM Difference
Many patients who are unable to receive traditional replacement options, such as a fixed bridge, are still able to undergo full-arch restoration. If you are on the verge of losing an entire upper or lower arch of teeth, have already lost these teeth, or wear a prosthesis, you may be a candidate for this procedure. Oftentimes, if you are healthy enough to undergo a general surgical procedure, you are healthy enough to receive dental implants.
Am I a Candidate for Full-Arch Restoration?
DIEM is designed by Zimmer Biomet Dental, a leading manufacturer of restorative dental treatments. The DIEM system produces long-lasting aesthetic results through comprehensive dental implant therapy. The prosthesis can be inserted into one or both dental arches, depending on your individual needs. This innovative system changes the lives of patients who have suffered from extensive tooth loss or damage from trauma by quickly and permanently restoring smiles. Learn more about this system on the Zimmer Biomet Dental website.
There must be enough jaw bone to support the implants. If you have been missing teeth for many years, the bone has likely deteriorated in that area and you will require a bone graft to promote the growth of new bone. We will perform an examination during your first visit, take 3D scans, and discuss your options for anesthesia so that you remain as comfortable as possible during the procedure.
To find out if you qualify for a permanent fixed denture through full-arch restoration, contact us to schedule an appointment. Both Dr. Lieblick and Dr. Rehrer are board-certified oral surgeons who specialize in implant dentistry and designing custom restorative solutions.
Types of Anesthesia
We offer several options for anesthesia to make your experience as comfortable as possible.
Patient Testimonials
Hear from our patients about their experiences with DIEM<sup>®</sup> Full-Arch Restoration and other procedures.
"Hi, I'm Lynn. I'm from over near Maupin, Oregon. I came to see Dr. Lieblick because my teeth had cracked and broken off, and I had two caps from long time ago that needed replaced and started bothering the hinges in my jaw. I came and he said I was a perfect example of someone who this would work well on. The rest of the staff was excellent, took very good care of me, walked me through it. Then Dr. Lieblick pulled out top and bottom, all of my teeth and the caps. I thought it would be so much worse than what it was. I can eat anything and everything now, yes. Feeling good about my smile, which I hadn't in quite a little while because my caps were 40 years old and not looking good anymore. So being comfortable knowing I can smile and all is right with the world is really, really nice."
"Hi, my name is Mike from Oregon City. I came to Beacon Oral Surgery for a full arch procedure. From the moment I walked in the door that day, everybody made me feel like I was a part of the family. The doctor here was very inviting. He listened to what I wanted to do for our procedure and he took care of every need I had. My procedure went well, and the recovery was as smooth as it could be. I have so much gratitude for this practice, and for the people that work here. Now, I feel like I can truly express who I am. I would absolutely recommend Beacon Oral Surgery to anybody. They gave me a smile that I will enjoy for the rest of my life."
"I'm Rick, and I'm from The Dalles, Oregon. I went to see Dr. Lieblick on my dentist's recommendation - very high recommendation - because I had some serious problems with my lower teeth. Dr. Lieblick explained all the different options to me; I think there were three or four. Without exception, the doctor and the entire staff were very pleasant and friendly. I felt very comfortable with them. The procedure I had done was called a DIEM®, where they removed all my lower teeth. I went in, they put me to sleep; my next memory, I was home sitting in my chair. I had absolutely no discomfort from the surgery. I would highly recommend Beacon Oral Surgeons."
"Hi, I’m Connie, and I’m from Woodburn. I came to Beacon Oral Surgeons to receive an upper and lower full-arch restoration. When I came in, I was a little apprehensive. The team did an awesome job of making me feel comfortable and not afraid. I had been without teeth for quite some time. Dr. Rehrer is wonderful. He was very personable. I couldn’t even imagine it being this good, and this has brought me a lot more courage and self-confidence. I find myself smiling so much more. The restoration has made me feel wonderful. I would rate my experience here as a full five stars. If anyone in the Vancouver area needs oral surgery, choose Dr. Rehrer at Beacon Oral Surgeons."
"Hi, my name is Carolyn. I’m from Lake Oswego, Oregon. [I] brought my 17-year-old son in to have his wisdom teeth removed with Dr. Lieblick. I would say one of the things that I noticed that stood out to me the most was the energy level. Coming in—great energy, felt very comfortable. The staff was really friendly. They were very welcoming. Dr. Lieblick has a very relaxed mannerism about him. He was very thorough in explaining everything that was going to happen. We left the patient consult feeling very comfortable and much more at ease than we did walking in the front door. For my friends and family in Milwaukie and in The Dalles, I highly recommend Beacon Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons."

Definitely five-star quality."
"Hi, my name is Liz, and I live in Vancouver. I came to see Dr. Lieblick for a dental implant. The staff here is very welcoming. From the moment you walk in, they greet you, they make you feel like you’re at home. Dr. Lieblick was great. I came in, the procedure was over before I even knew it started. Dr. Lieblick was very professional and friendly, he put my nerves at ease. The videos that were sent via text messages were very helpful. I knew what to do that evening, the evening before. I felt like I was in safe hands, and they sent me [a] beautiful bouquet of flowers. Out of five stars, I gave Dr. Lieblick five stars!"
