What Are All-On-4 Dental Implants?
All-On-4 dental implants are an innovative solution for patients who are missing most or all of their teeth. Unlike traditional dentures, which rest on the gums, All-On-4 implants use just four strategically placed titanium posts to support an entire arch of teeth. This means that even with minimal bone density, you can enjoy the benefits of a full set of fixed, permanent teeth providing stability, strength, and longevity.

Benefits of All-On-4 Dental Implants
When patients choose All-on-4 implants, they’re also choosing:
Permanent Solution: Once placed, All-On-4 implants are designed to last a lifetime with proper care.
Natural Appearance: The prosthetic teeth look and feel like natural teeth, enhancing your smile and confidence.
Improved Function: Enjoy eating your favorite foods again without the worry of slipping dentures.
Bone Preservation: Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing the bone loss that often occurs with missing teeth.
No Need for Bone Grafting: The strategic placement of the implants, including the tilting of posterior implants, often eliminates the need for bone grafting, a common requirement for traditional implants.
The All-On-4 Dental Implant Procedure
The All-On-4 dental implant process is typically completed in a single day, allowing you to leave our office with a new smile. However, if your jawbone is insufficiently thick or strong to support the implants, a bone graft may be necessary as a pre-treatment procedure.
-
Initial Consultation
During your first visit, our experienced dental team will assess your oral health, discuss your goals, and determine if All-On-4 is the right option for you. Advanced imaging, such as 3D CT scans, may be used to evaluate bone density and structure. The assessment will also include checking for gum disease, which must be addressed before proceeding with the implant procedure.
-
Treatment Planning
Once it’s decided that dental implants are the best option for you, a customized treatment plan is created, detailing the surgical procedure of the four dental implants and the design of your new teeth. We’ll also discuss dental sedation options to ensure your comfort during the procedure.
-
Implant Placement
The day of the dental implant surgery involves placing four titanium implants into the jawbone. These implants act as anchors for your new teeth. Temporary teeth are attached to the implants on the same day, allowing you to leave with a functional set of teeth.
-
Healing and Osseointegration
Over the next few months, the implants will fuse with the jawbone in a process called osseointegration. During this healing period, you’ll need to follow specific care instructions to ensure the implants integrate successfully.
-
Final Restoration
Once the implants have fully integrated, your final, permanent artificial teeth are attached to the implants. These teeth are custom-made to fit your mouth perfectly and look completely natural.
Who Is a Candidate for All-On-4 Dental Implants?
All-On-4 dental implants are suitable for a wide range of patients, particularly those who have lost multiple teeth or are facing complete tooth loss. Ideal candidates include:
Individuals with significant tooth loss in one or both arches.
Patients with sufficient jawbone density to support the implants.
Those who are looking for a permanent alternative to dentures.
People who want to restore their smile quickly and efficiently.
Not Sure If You Qualify?
If you’re unsure whether All-On-4 implants are right for you, schedule a consultation with our Palm Beach Gardens dentist at PGA Dentistry. We’ll conduct a thorough evaluation and discuss all available options to help you make an informed decision.
All-on-4 Dental Implant Costs
On average, the cost of an All-on-4 dental implant procedure can range from $20,000 to $50,000 per arch. However, this cost can be lower than traditional implant placement, as fewer implants are required. Discuss the cost of the procedure with our dentist during the initial consultation. They can provide you with an estimate and discuss any financing options that may be available.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
How long do All-on-4 dental implants last?
All-on-4 dental implants can last a lifetime when cared for properly. Patients should maintain a good oral hygiene routine, attend regular dental checkups and cleanings, and avoid habits that can damage the implants, such as smoking or biting hard objects.
-
Is the All-on-4 dental implant process painful?
The All-on-4 dental implant procedure is a surgery typically performed under local anesthesia or IV sedation, so patients shouldn’t feel any pain. Some may experience mild discomfort and swelling for a few days after implant surgery, but this can be managed with over-the-counter pain medications and cold compresses.
-
Can I eat and speak normally with All-on-4 dental implants?
Yes. Since All-on-4 dental implants are designed to look and function like natural teeth, patients can eat and speak normally. However, it may take some time for patients to adjust to life with their new teeth, and speech therapy may be recommended in certain cases.
-
Are All-on-4 implants worth it?
The All-on-4 procedure is often considered worth it for those who want a permanent solution to replace their missing teeth. Unlike traditional dentures, which can slip and cause discomfort, All-on-4 implants are securely anchored in the bone and don’t require adhesives. They also offer greater stability and can improve your ability to speak and eat.
