What is All-on-4?

For patients missing a full row of teeth, All-on-4 implant supported dentures offer an innovative alternative to traditional dentures. All-on-4 anchored dentures use four strategically placed dental implants to secure each denture for increased comfort, strength, and stability. Replacing your missing teeth with these durable restorations can effectively reconstruct healthy dental form and function with long-lasting results.

The All-on-4 technique uses the same titanium posts that typically serve as artificial tooth roots for single dental implants. Rather than placing porcelain crown restorations on these posts, cosmetic dentist Kevin Sands, DDS will securely fasten your custom-made upper or lower denture to these four points to eliminate the need for denture adhesives. These titanium implants are surgically placed in the jaw and can eventually fuse to the jawbone, providing exceptional support and stability. For patients with diminished jawbone density, All-on-4 may also provide a more feasible alternative to a full set of single dental implants.

The All-on-4 procedure can typically be performed within the span of one day, instantly rejuvenating your smile with natural-looking results. Most patients are able to return to their normal routine the following day. For more information about All-on-4, please schedule a consultation with Dr. Sands.
