What Is All-on-4®?

All-on-4® replaces an entire upper or lower arch with a fixed, non-removable prosthesis anchored by four implants. Two implants are placed vertically in the front, and two are angled in the back to maximize existing bone. This approach often reduces the need for grafting and streamlines treatment compared with traditional full-arch methods. Many patients leave surgery with a custom temporary set of teeth while the implants heal, so you can smile and enjoy soft foods right away. At your consultation, we’ll use 3D imaging to map implant positions, review timelines and costs, and design a result that matches your features and goals.

  • Angled rear implants
  • Same-day provisional teeth*

Benefits of All-on-4®

Secure, natural function

All-on-4® is fixed in place—no slipping, adhesives, or nightly soaking. You'll speak clearly and enjoy a broader range of foods with confident bite support. Because the restoration is designed for your smile, shape, and shade are customized to look natural in everyday life and in photos, not just on a model. Patients appreciate the day-to-day reliability and the freedom to laugh and eat without worry.

Streamlined treatment

Using four strategically positioned implants often shortens treatment compared with methods that require six to eight implants per arch. Fewer implants can mean fewer surgical steps and appointments, while still delivering excellent stability. When appropriate, a same-day temporary lets you leave with a complete smile as the implants heal. Clear timelines and written instructions make each phase predictable and easy to follow.

Long-term bone support

Implants stimulate the jawbone, much like natural roots, helping to preserve facial contours over time. This support helps reduce bone loss and the "sunken" appearance sometimes associated with long-term tooth loss and removable dentures. Stable chewing forces also help nearby structures stay aligned, supporting comfortable function and easier home care with daily brushing and targeted cleaning aids.

Who Is a Candidate for All-on-4®?

All-on-4 is designed for patients missing most or all of their teeth, or those frustrated by loose dentures. Good candidates are in overall good health with adequate bone for implant support; thanks to angled placement, many people who were told they needed extensive grafting may still qualify. We’ll review your medical history, medications, and goals, then take a 3D scan to evaluate bone quality and map implant positions. If extractions or limited grafting are needed, we’ll include them in a clear, staged plan. Together, we’ll decide whether one or both arches should be treated to balance function, esthetics, and budget.

Our All-on-4® Process

Predictable outcomes start with precise planning. Your first visit includes a conversation about goals, a comprehensive exam, and CBCT 3D imaging. We explain options, outline timelines and fees, and answer questions about comfort and recovery. On surgery day, four implants are placed per arch using guided techniques. When appropriate, a custom temporary is attached, allowing you to leave with a functional smile. Over the next few months, your bone bonds to the implants (osseointegration). We see you for check-ins, adjustments, and reviews of at-home care. After healing, we design and deliver your final prosthesis to ensure strength, proper fit, and a natural appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions

All-on-4 Implants
FAQs

Here are answers to some of our Houston patients’ most common questions about All-on-4 implants.

Can I really get teeth the same day?

In many cases, yes. After placing the four implants, we attach a custom temporary set of teeth, allowing you to smile and eat soft foods while you heal. Not every case qualifies—your health, bone quality, and bite factors guide this decision. We’ll review your 3D scan, explain what to expect during the first week (a soft diet and gentle hygiene), and schedule follow-ups to adjust the fit as swelling resolves. Once the implants have fully integrated, we design your final prosthesis to ensure it matches your features and goals in terms of strength, contour, and shade.

Often, no. The angled rear implants engage more of your existing bone, which can reduce or eliminate the need for grafting. If limited grafting improves long-term stability, we’ll include it in your plan.

Brush your teeth daily with a soft-bristle brush and use implant-safe floss or cleaning aids to clean under the arch gently. Attend routine checkups for professional maintenance and to maintain a balanced bite.
