Regain Your Smile with All-on-4 Dental Implants
If you’re tired of loose dentures or missing teeth, All-on-4 full-arch dental implants may be your solution. At Pembroke Pines Dental, our experienced team provides same-day provisional teeth when clinical stability allows, restoring confidence, comfort, and function with a streamlined approach.
What Are All-on-4 Dental Implants?
All-on-4 replaces a full arch of teeth using four strategically angulated implants to support a fixed, screw-retained bridge. Unlike dentures, the bridge feels and functions more like natural teeth and helps preserve bone volume, reducing the bone loss often seen with long-term denture use. The bridge is fixed in place and can only be removed by a dentist during maintenance visits.
Why Choose All-on-4?
- Same-day smile (case-dependent). Many patients leave surgery with a provisional bridge if stability criteria are met (typically insertion torque ≥35 Ncm and favorable ISQ readings).
- Fewer implants, efficient surgery. Typically four per arch, with recovery often shorter than staged, multi-implant approaches.
- Reduced need for bone grafting. Posterior tilt and strategic positioning often avoid sinus lifts or nerve grafts, though socket grafts or contour grafts may still be recommended. In select cases, 5–6 implants may be used for added stability.
- Chewing power & confidence. Offers significantly higher chewing efficiency and stability than traditional dentures.
All-on-4 vs. Traditional Dentures
| Feature | All-on-4 Dental Implants | Traditional Dentures |
|---|---|---|
| Stability | Fixed, dentist-removable | May slip or shift |
| Comfort | Feels closer to natural teeth | May irritate gums |
| Longevity | Many years with upkeep | Frequent relines/repairs |
| Function | Higher chewing efficiency | Limited chewing strength |
| Maintenance | Professional cleanings and component updates | Frequent relines and adjustments |
Who Is a Good Candidate?
Ideal for patients with multiple failing teeth or denture frustration seeking a secure, long-term solution. We evaluate medical history, bone quality, and hygiene to confirm candidacy. Factors such as uncontrolled diabetes, heavy smoking, certain medications (like antiresorptives), history of head-and-neck radiation, or heavy bruxism may require modifications or a staged plan.
What to Expect
- Day of surgery. Extractions (if needed), implant placement, and provisional full-arch bridge when stability permits.
- Healing. A soft diet for at least 6–8 weeks in the lower jaw, and often 8–12 weeks in the upper jaw, to protect the implants and provisional.
- Final bridge. Crafted after 3–6 months for long-term durability, esthetics, and a refined bite.
Cost & Financing
Investment varies by case complexity and materials. We provide a transparent, personalized estimate and flexible financing, including in-house options.
Maintenance
Daily cleaning with a soft toothbrush and floss threaders or super floss under the bridge. A water flosser is a useful adjunct. Patients who clench may need a nightguard. Professional maintenance every 3–4 months in the first year, then typically every 4–6 months. Expect occasional screw checks, acrylic repairs, or component replacement over time—normal parts of long-term care.
