All-on-4 Dental Implants
All-on-4 Dental Implants are a permanent set of fabricated teeth set on dental implants. Dental implants are surgically attached to your jaw.
Often, AO4 Dental Implants are an option for patients who have been dealing with dentures or are anticipating the need for dentures. This is a great option because All-on-4 dental implants are a permanent solution for missing or severely damaged teeth. They are secured directly into your own jaw, so they look, feel, and function just like natural teeth.
Benefits of All-on-4 Dental Implants

How All-on-4 Dental Implants Work
Traditional implants utilize anywhere from six to eight implants or more in each arch, but this technique only uses four implants per arch.
The implants of the All-on-4 procedure are also placed at an angle, which allows for increased contact by using the natural support of your bone. In addition, the All-on-4 procedure requires no bone grafting for most patients, which is common in traditional implant procedures. Therefore, All-on-4 dental implants save both time and money.
