The All-on-4 technique uses four strategically placed titanium implants - two vertical at the front, two angled at the back - to support an entire arch of fixed, non-removable teeth. In many cases, temporary teeth are fitted the same day as surgery.
All-on-4 is ideal if you fit one or more of these situations:
Because the two back implants are angled, All-on-4 anchors into denser bone at the front of the jaw - often bypassing the need for sinus lifts or major grafting in the back.
Most patients leave the clinic with a fixed temporary prosthesis the same day the implants are placed.
Angled posterior implants use existing bone - avoiding costly and time-consuming sinus lifts.
Unlike dentures, All-on-4 is permanently attached. No adhesives, no slipping, no embarrassment.
4 implants per arch vs. 6-8 - significant savings over traditional full-arch implant treatment.
Complete treatment typically in one day for surgery + 3-6 months for final zirconia bridge.
Up to 90% of natural bite force. Steak, apples, nuts - nothing off-limits.
CBCT scan, digital impressions and smile design preview. You approve the plan before surgery.
Remaining teeth are removed, four implants placed, and a temporary full-arch prosthesis is fitted - all in one appointment.
You go home with a fixed temporary bridge. Soft diet for 3 months while implants integrate.
Implants fuse with bone. Regular check-ups ensure healing is on track.
Custom zirconia or ceramic bridge is fitted. Final smile designed to your face, lips and preferences.
