Understanding the All-on-4 Approach
Two implants are commonly placed toward the front of the arch and two toward the back at angles selected during digital planning. This configuration is designed to create support for a complete arch of replacement teeth.
A fixed full-arch restoration rather than a removable conventional denture

A restoration designed around appearance, speech, and function
Who May Be a Candidate?
All-on-4 may be discussed with adults who have extensive tooth loss, failing teeth, or difficulty wearing removable dentures. Medical history, bone volume, gum health, and other factors must be reviewed before treatment is recommended.
Your Personalized Treatment Plan
Your consultation is the time to compare All-on-4 with All-on-5, All-on-6, implant-supported dentures, and conventional dentures. The team will explain the differences that apply to your needs, including care requirements and expected timing.
Caring for a Fixed Full-Arch Smile
Long-term care includes daily cleaning beneath and around the restoration, professional maintenance, and follow-up visits. The team will provide instructions based on the final restoration and your oral health.
