What Are All-on-4 Implants?

All-on-4 is an advanced dental implant technique that replaces a full arch of teeth using as few as four dental implants. Your implant-supported restoration will look and function just like natural teeth. Key details include:

  • Four implants anchor a full arch, even for patients who have experienced significant bone loss
  • Acrylic and plastic restorations require four implants per arch
  • Zirconia restorations, which provide premium strength and durability, require at least five implants per arch
  • Many patients who do not qualify for traditional implants are strong candidates for All-on-4

Major Advantages of All-on-4 Implants

Less Frequent Need for Bone Grafting

Lost tissue in the jawbone prohibits many patients from receiving traditional implants unless they also undergo bone grafting. The All-on-4 method allows dentists to maximize contact with existing bone tissue, often eliminating the need for a bone graft.

Fewer Implants

All-on-4 implants offer a streamlined way to support a full-arch restoration using fewer implants. In many cases, it would take six to eight traditional implants to support a full-arch restoration. But with All-on-4, you get outstanding stability with less hardware.

A Simpler Process

Traditional implants often require two surgeries: one to place the implants, and another to place abutment pieces onto the implants in preparation for a denture. In most cases, All-on-4 only requires one procedure in which the implants are placed and immediately loaded with a restoration.

Your All-on-4 Treatment Journey

Initial Evaluation

Dr. Maples will examine you to make sure you are a strong candidate for dental implant surgery. He will evaluate your teeth, gums, and jawbone strength using our cone beam CT scanner and investigate any potential periodontal concerns.

Implant Placement

Dr. Maples makes surgical incisions in your gums and places your dental implants. We offer oral sedation and take great care to ensure that you are relaxed and comfortable throughout surgery.

Temporary Denture

Temporary teeth are attached to your new implants on the same day. You will walk out of our Loveland dental office with a functional smile. A soft diet is important during this healing period to avoid overloading the implants.

Bone Fusion

The healing process may take as few as two months or sometimes a full six. During this time, bone growth occurs around the dental implant, allowing it to truly become a part of your mouth.

Final Restoration

Once the implants have fused with your jawbone, the process of designing your final teeth begins. This takes a series of six appointments during which you will have input on the final design of your restoration. Your new teeth will look, work, and feel just like natural teeth.
