All-on-4® is a modern approach to full-arch tooth replacement that lets many patients leave the clinic with a fixed set of teeth on the same day as implant placement. Instead of replacing each missing tooth individually, this method uses four strategically placed implants to support a complete prosthesis, delivering immediate function and a natural appearance.
This option is designed for people who have lost most or all of their teeth, those facing extractions, or anyone who finds traditional removable dentures uncomfortable or unstable. By anchoring a full-arch restoration on a small number of implants, the treatment reduces the need for extensive bone grafting in many cases and shortens the timeline from consultation to usable teeth.
Although every patient’s anatomy and needs are different, the core idea is straightforward: stable implant support plus a well-designed prosthesis equals better chewing, clearer speech, and greater confidence. Your treatment plan is tailored to your mouth and priorities so the outcome looks and feels like a real, functioning smile.
Successful full-arch rehabilitation begins long before the day of surgery. A thorough evaluation includes a medical and dental history review, a clinical exam, and digital imaging to map bone volume and nerve locations. Cone-beam CT scans and digital impressions are commonly used tools that allow your dentist to visualize the jaw in three dimensions and plan implant positions with precision.
Using these images, the restorative team creates a customized treatment pathway — selecting implant locations that maximize bone support and prosthesis stability while avoiding vital anatomy. Treatment planning also considers esthetics, the lip line, and how the new teeth will harmonize with your facial features so the result is both functional and natural-looking.
When necessary, your clinician will discuss adjunctive procedures such as tooth extractions or minor grafting and explain how they affect the timeline. Clear communication about what to expect, pre-treatment instructions, and recovery milestones helps patients feel prepared and reduces anxiety on the day of care.
On the day of treatment you’ll be guided through a carefully choreographed process designed for comfort and efficiency. After any required extractions, four implants are placed in predetermined positions to provide strong support for a provisional bridge. Many patients receive sedation or local anesthesia based on their preferences and clinical needs to ensure a calm experience.
Once the implants are secured, the provisional prosthesis is adjusted and attached so you can leave with a fixed set of teeth. This temporary bridge lets you eat and speak with confidence while the bone begins to integrate with the implants. Your clinician will provide clear postoperative instructions, including diet recommendations and guidelines for oral hygiene to protect the surgical sites during initial healing.
Follow-up appointments in the weeks after surgery are important to monitor healing and make any necessary adjustments. After a healing period that varies for each patient, your team replaces the provisional prosthesis with a final restoration crafted for long-term comfort, function, and esthetics.
When placed and maintained correctly, full-arch implant restorations can provide a stable, functional alternative to removable dentures. Implants help preserve the jawbone by transmitting natural biting forces into the bone, which supports facial structure and reduces the gradual bone loss that often accompanies tooth loss.
Daily care is straightforward: brushing twice a day, cleaning beneath and around the fixed prosthesis, and using interdental aids where recommended. Regular professional exams and cleanings allow the dental team to check implant health, prosthesis fit, and surrounding tissues. Good home care combined with periodic professional maintenance helps minimize complications and prolong the life of the restoration.
It’s also important to maintain overall health habits that support oral healing, such as avoiding tobacco and managing chronic conditions like diabetes. Your clinician will review personalized maintenance steps and a recall schedule to keep your full-arch restoration performing at its best.
Choosing full-arch reconstruction is a major decision, and having a practiced team at your side makes the process more predictable and less stressful. Our Unionville practice blends restorative expertise with the technology needed for modern implant planning and placement, ensuring each step is coordinated between surgical and prosthetic phases.
From the initial consultation through final restoration, the focus is on clear communication, individualized care, and outcomes that meet both functional and esthetic goals. The team works closely with each patient to explain options, answer questions, and tailor treatment to personal needs and comfort levels.
