All-on-4 implants
A fixed full arch on four implants
In a fully edentulous jaw a fixed bridge is carried on four implants, with temporary teeth fitted the same day in most cases.
All-on-4 carries a fixed bridge for a whole jaw on four implants. Because it does not need one implant per missing tooth, treatment time and cost are generally lower.
The rear implants are placed at an angle to use the available bone most efficiently, which reduces the need for grafting in many cases.
Who is it for?
- A fully edentulous jaw, or one where all teeth must go
- Anyone unhappy with a removable denture
- Patients who want a fixed solution
How the treatment works
- 01
Scan and planning
Bone density is measured and implant angles set in advance.
- 02
Surgery
Implants are placed in one session using a guide.
- 03
Temporary bridge
In most cases fixed temporary teeth are fitted the same day.
- 04
Final bridge
Once integration is complete the final bridge is made.
After your treatment
Avoid hard and fibrous food for the first three months. Cleaning under the bridge with the right interdental brushes decides long-term success.
Frequently asked questions
Will I leave with teeth the same day?
In most cases yes. If primary stability is sufficient, a fixed temporary goes in the same day.
Do I have enough bone?
Angled placement avoids grafting in most cases; the scan decides.
