All-On-4
Teeth in a Day
The most life-like way to replace bad or missing teeth with dental implants.
What are All-On-4 Implants?
Best looks/aesthetics | Looks and feels the most like natural teeth.
Non-removable | Doesn’t come in and out of the mouth like a denture.
No long healing times before you can use your dental implants.
Doesn’t cover the roof of the mouth!
Best chewing capability of all full arch/full mouth tooth replacement options.
Requires the least amount of bone | Great for people who have been told they don’t have enough bone for implants.
Taste your food better!
How it Works
This procedure involves removing any remaining teeth, placing 4-6 implants per arch, and attaching a low-profile bridge to those implants. The implants are often placed at special angles to avoid the patient’s sinuses. This also avoids the need for expensive bone grafts with long healing times.
The traditional All-On-4 procedure involves four implants and acrylic denture teeth over a titanium frame. Our doctor has modified this procedure based on his experience and knowledge to provide an even better result for his patients! At Pacific Northwest Dental, we carefully analyze each and every case and base our treatment on the individual patient’s anatomy. Your doctor will place between four and six implants per arch and temporary fixed bridges will be placed while your implants integrate with your jawbones and your mouth heals. After your healing is complete, the doctor and lab technician will design your final teeth with zirconia, which is much stronger than the traditional acrylic (plastic) denture teeth offered at most other dental offices. Zirconia also gives a more natural, life-like end result and is more hygienic and resistant to staining. This means they will last longer and look better than the acrylic/titanium hybrid bridges you find at most other practices.
Am I A Candidate?
Most patients will be a candidate for this procedure, even those who have been told they don’t have enough bone for dental implants. Your doctor will use a combination of straight and angled implants to avoid the sinuses and engage the strongest bone. Using this technique usually removes the need for expensive and lengthy sinus augmentation bone grafts.
