Understanding Full-Arch Implants
What Are All-on-4 Dental Implants?
All-on-4 is a full-arch dental implant treatment concept designed for patients who are missing most or all of their teeth in an upper arch, lower arch or both.
Rather than replacing every missing tooth with an individual implant, a full arch of replacement teeth is supported by strategically positioned dental implants.
The appropriate number and position of implants can vary depending on your oral health, bone structure and individual treatment needs. A dental assessment is required before a treatment recommendation can be made.

Is This Treatment Right for You?
Who May Be a Candidate for Full-Arch Implants?
Full-arch implant treatment may be considered for some adults experiencing extensive tooth loss or looking for an alternative to traditional removable dentures. Suitability depends on an individual dental and medical assessment.
01
Extensive Tooth Loss
Patients missing most or all of their teeth may wish to explore full-arch tooth replacement options.
02
Current Denture Wearers
Some denture wearers explore implant-supported treatment when seeking greater stability and a different tooth-replacement option.
03
Multiple Compromised Teeth
If several teeth have a poor long-term outlook, your dentist may discuss full-arch treatment among the available options.
04
Seeking a Fixed Option
Certain implant-supported restorations are secured to dental implants rather than functioning like conventional removable dentures.
05
Committed to Maintenance
Implants require ongoing home care, professional maintenance and regular dental examinations.
06
Appropriate Oral Health
Your dentist will review your oral health, medical history, bone structure and other factors before recommending implant treatment.
Not Sure If You Are a Candidate?
A consultation and clinical assessment are the best way to understand which treatment options may be appropriate for you.
Understanding Your Options
Full-Arch Implants vs. Traditional Dentures
Both approaches can replace missing teeth, but they work differently. Your dentist can explain the benefits, limitations and maintenance requirements of each option.
OPTION 01
Traditional Dentures
Removable tooth-replacement option
Primarily supported by oral tissues
Fit may change as oral tissues change
Does not require implant surgery
OPTION 02
Full-Arch Implant Treatment
Supported by dental implants
Designed for increased stability
Requires implant treatment and healing
Requires ongoing implant maintenance
Neither option is automatically appropriate for every patient. Treatment recommendations depend on your individual dental and medical assessment.
Treatment Considerations
Potential Benefits of Full-Arch Implant Treatment
For appropriate candidates, implant-supported full-arch treatment may provide several functional and restorative benefits.
Stability
Dental implants provide support for the replacement teeth.
Function
Treatment is planned with chewing, speech, bite and everyday function in mind.
Appearance
The replacement teeth are planned as part of your overall restorative treatment.
