How All-on-4 works

Four implants — two vertical in the front, two angled 45° in the back — support a full-arch fixed bridge. The rear angulation reaches denser anterior bone, eliminating the bone grafting that traditional full-arch implants require in most patients.

The 45° posterior angulation reaches denser bone and avoids sinus proximity — eliminating bone grafting in most patients.

The All-on-4 procedure

From consultation to final bridge — what to expect at each step.

CBCT scan + consultation

3D imaging maps your bone anatomy, sinus position, and nerve pathways. Dr. Khan determines implant placement positions and whether bone grafting is needed — most All-on-4 patients do not need it.

Treatment planning + estimate

A written treatment plan and cost estimate are provided before anything is scheduled. You review the proposed approach, timeline, financing options, and what to expect at each phase.

Surgery day — extractions + implants

Remaining failing teeth are extracted. Four implants per arch are placed using the planned angulations. A temporary fixed bridge is attached to the implants before you leave. You go home with functional teeth the same day.

Integration (3–6 months)

The implants fuse with the surrounding bone — osseointegration. You wear the temporary bridge and follow a soft diet. Follow-up visits monitor healing. Most patients return to normal activity within a week of surgery.

Final prosthetic placement

Once integration is confirmed on imaging, the temporary bridge is replaced with the final permanent restoration — typically a zirconia or hybrid bridge. Bite is refined. Care instructions and maintenance schedule are finalized.

Fixed or removable All-on-4/6 do not come out	Fixed	Fixed	Removable
Bone graft needed Angled posterior implants avoid graft in most cases	Rarely	Rarely	Never
Bone preservation Dentures accelerate bone loss; implants prevent it	Yes	Yes	No
Same-day teeth Temporary bridge placed day of surgery for All-on-4/6	Yes	Yes	Yes
Chewing efficiency Fixed implants restore near-normal bite force	~90%	~90%	~20–30%

Cost ranges reflect national averages. Individual treatment cost varies by case complexity, materials, and geographic location. Dr. Khan provides a written estimate at consultation.

Are you a candidate?

All-on-4 is designed for patients who are missing most or all teeth in one or both arches, or who have teeth so compromised by decay, gum disease, or trauma that extraction is the appropriate path forward.

The clinical advantage of the angled posterior implant design is that it reaches areas of denser anterior bone — making many patients who lack sufficient posterior bone volume eligible without bone grafting. A CBCT scan at your consultation provides the exact bone measurements needed to confirm.

Typical All-on-4 candidates

✓Missing most or all teeth in one or both arches
✓Failing teeth requiring full extraction
✓Current denture wearer seeking a fixed solution
✓Adequate anterior jaw bone volume (CBCT confirms)
✓Non-smoker or committed to cessation
✓Well-controlled general health conditions

Factors requiring additional evaluation

→Active heavy smoking — significantly impairs healing
→Uncontrolled diabetes — affects osseointegration
→Certain medications (bisphosphonates, immunosuppressants)
→Insufficient overall bone — may require grafting before placement
→Active gum infection — must be treated first

All-on-4 dental implants — questions answered

What are All-on-4 dental implants?

All-on-4 dental implants anchor a full-arch fixed bridge to four implants per arch. Two are placed vertically in the front; two are angled 45° in the posterior, reaching denser bone and eliminating the need for grafting in most cases. The result is a complete upper or lower arch of permanent, non-removable teeth.

Am I a candidate for All-on-4?

Candidates are typically missing most or all teeth in an arch, or have failing teeth needing extraction. The angled posterior implant design lets many patients qualify without bone grafting. Dr. Khan confirms candidacy with CBCT imaging. Health factors — diabetes, smoking, specific medications — are reviewed at the consultation.

How much do All-on-4 dental implants cost?

All-on-4 treatment ranges from varies per arch — including surgery, the temporary prosthetic, and the final bridge. Both arches run varies at most practices. The range reflects implant materials, prosthetic type, and case complexity. Dr. Khan provides a written cost estimate before any treatment begins. Monthly financing through Cherry, CareCredit, and Sunbit is available.

What is the All-on-4 procedure step by step?

Treatment begins with CBCT scanning and planning. On surgery day, failing teeth are extracted, four implants placed per arch, and a temporary fixed bridge attached — you go home with functional teeth. Over 3 to 6 months the implants integrate with bone. Once integration is confirmed, the final zirconia or hybrid bridge replaces the temporary.

How long do All-on-4 implants last?

Titanium implants are rated for lifetime use. The prosthetic bridge typically lasts 10 to 20 years depending on material and care — zirconia is the most durable option. Daily soft brushing, water flossing, and professional maintenance are essential. Dr. Khan provides a detailed care protocol at delivery.

Is All-on-4 the same day as the surgery?

Yes — 'Teeth in a Day' refers to the same-day temporary fixed bridge placed on surgery day. Implants are placed, a temporary prosthetic is attached, and you leave with functional teeth. The temporary is worn during the 3 to 6 month integration period and then replaced with the permanent bridge.

What is the difference between All-on-4 and All-on-6?

All-on-4 uses four implants per arch; All-on-6 uses six. The extra implants in All-on-6 distribute bite forces more widely — sometimes preferred when bone quality allows and extra stability is clinically indicated. For most patients with adequate anterior bone, All-on-4 achieves equivalent outcomes at lower cost. Dr. Khan determines the appropriate approach from your CBCT and bite analysis.

Does insurance cover All-on-4 dental implants?

Most dental plans do not cover full-arch implant restoration. Some provide a partial surgical or prosthetic benefit. FSA and HSA funds can be applied. At Serenity Dental, we verify your specific benefits before treatment begins and identify any applicable coverage. Cherry, CareCredit, and Sunbit can spread the cost over monthly payments.

What is the recovery like after All-on-4 surgery?

Most patients take 3 to 5 days off. Swelling peaks at 48 to 72 hours and is managed with prescription pain relief. A soft diet is required for 6 to 8 weeks during integration. Light activity is typically possible within a week. Dr. Khan provides written post-op instructions and is reachable by phone throughout recovery.

How does All-on-4 compare to dentures?

Dentures rest on the gums and are held by suction — they shift, reduce chewing efficiency, and accelerate bone loss because the bone receives no implant stimulation. All-on-4 implants are fixed in bone, do not come out, restore near-full chewing efficiency, and prevent bone loss. Patients consistently report better confidence eating, speaking, and smiling than with removable dentures.
