What are All-On-4 Implants?

The All-On-4, also known as "Teeth in a Day," procedure offers patients the opportunity to have their remaining teeth removed, implants placed, and a fully functional smile all in just one day! This procedure not only enhances the appearance of patients' smiles but also rejuvenates their outlook on life. Many patients struggle with severe tooth decay, failing dental work, and broken teeth. For these individuals, the All-On-4, "Teeth in a Day" procedure is the ideal solution to achieve a brand new smile and resolve long-standing dental issues.

How it Works

This procedure involves extracting any remaining teeth, placing 4-6 implants per arch, and attaching a low-profile bridge to those implants. The implants are often positioned at specific angles to avoid the patient's sinuses, eliminating the need for costly bone grafts and lengthy healing periods.

Our doctor has enhanced the traditional All-On-4 procedure by customizing it based on their expertise and understanding, resulting in an even more favorable patient outcome. At Indiana Dentures and Implants, we thoroughly evaluate each case and tailor our treatment to the individual patient's anatomy. Your doctor will implant between four and six implants per arch and temporary fixed bridges will be installed while your implants integrate with your jawbones and your mouth heals. Once your healing process is complete, the doctor and lab technician will design your final teeth using zirconia. This material is significantly stronger than the typical acrylic denture teeth offered at other dental practices. Zirconia also provides a more natural and lifelike appearance, is more hygienic, and is resistant to staining. As a result, these teeth will have a longer lifespan and a superior aesthetic compared to the acrylic/titanium hybrid bridges commonly found elsewhere.

Am I a Candidate?

The majority of patients, including those who have been informed that they lack sufficient bone for dental implants, can undergo this procedure. To avoid the sinuses and utilize the strongest bone, your doctor will employ a combination of straight and angled implants. This technique typically eliminates the necessity for costly and time-consuming sinus augmentation bone grafts. During your complimentary consultation, your doctor will conduct a comprehensive assessment to determine if All-On-4, also known as "Teeth in a Day," is suitable for you.

All-On-4 Cost

The pricing covers all extractions, unlimited implants, temporary fixed teeth, and permanent fixed teeth.

Our pricing in the area is unbeatable, resulting in exceptional outcomes. This is achievable due to our expert dentist overseeing the entire procedure and our skilled in-house dental lab technician. Together, they have successfully completed this procedure numerous times.

When it comes to taking care of your teeth, we've got you covered! Our awesome dentist and in-house lab technician will work together to give you the perfect smile you've always wanted. Unlike other places that use acrylic denture teeth on titanium bars, we use zirconia because it's way better in terms of looks, durability, and staying stain-free. Usually, upgrading to these materials would cost you a pretty penny elsewhere, but here at Lorton Town Dental, it's all included in our regular package.

frequently asked questions

Yes! However, while your implants and teeth are securely placed from day one, we do ask that you maintain a soft diet during the 4 month healing period. What exactly does that mean? A good general rule is you can eat anything you can cut with a plastic fork. The reason for this is that you are investing in something that could last you many decades, even the rest of your life, and maintaining a softer diet during the healing period will allow the best integration of your implants into your bone and help ensure the best long-term outcome.

Maintaining the health of your teeth, including All-On-4 teeth and implants, is a simple but consistent task. Just like with natural teeth, it's important to brush and floss regularly. By spending a few minutes each day, you can keep your mouth and implants healthy. Use a soft bristle toothbrush to brush your bridges and clean underneath them with a water flosser like the popular brand WaterPik, multiple times a day.

To minimize the risk of complications with dental implants, it's best to avoid smoking. Diabetics should also be cautious, as they have a higher risk of complications. Controlling your diabetes is crucial for the long-term success of your implants.

In addition to these considerations, it's important to regularly visit your dentist for evaluations of your new implant teeth throughout the year.

While experiences will vary some, you should expect some discomfort and possibly swelling after your procedure. Many patients come in the next day for their post op appointment reporting very little discomfort. You will be prescribed pain medication to help alleviate any discomfort. Also, if you’re a candidate for it, the doctor will give you a steroid shot which will help with discomfort and swelling for the first few days.

The recovery period for this procedure is generally shorter and more manageable compared to other options for full arch or full mouth replacement. This is primarily due to the bridges being directly attached to your jaws through implants. Unlike traditional dentures and implant dentures, there is no need for healing periods where the dentures can move and cause discomfort. Most of your pain should subside within 1-2 weeks, and complete healing is typically achieved within 6 months.

At Lorton Town Dental, we offer the same benefits as corporate implant centers, but with a personal touch. Our exclusive focus on dental implants and prosthetics allows us to provide competitive pricing, same day teeth, and an in-house lab. Unlike corporate centers, we are privately owned and prioritize patient satisfaction over quotas and cost cutting. With us, you can be confident that you will be seen by our experienced doctor, who will oversee your procedure from start to finish. At Sumner Dental Group, we treat our patients like family and strive to ensure your smile is everything you hoped for.

Mini dental implants are not even related to what we do at Sumner Dental Group for our All-On-4 teeth in a day procedure. Please proceed with caution at any office recommending mini dental implants as a permanent solution. They have a very high failure/complication rate.

Snap-in implant dentures are a good option for some patients. We also provide this service and have an entire page dedicated to these if you want to learn more. They can be a more affordable alternative to the All-On-4 Teeth in a Day dental implant procedure.

We limit our practice to dental implants and prosthetics. Dental implants and specifically teeth in a day is our passion, and we are constantly working to ensure our patients get the best results possible. Many offices will refer you to multiple providers, use outside labs, and have confusing pricing. They will take many months or even years to complete your procedure while charging you 50-100% more. Our doctor performs the procedure from surgery to final teeth, we have an in house lab and lab technician, and transparent, affordable pricing. By having all this under one roof, we are able to deliver the best service at the best price.

We do not currently put patients to sleep, however, we do offer oral conscious sedation. This medication will help to relax you and often makes it so you don’t even remember your procedure. For this, we write you a prescription, and you can pick it up at your pharmacy of choice. NOTE: You MUST have a driver for this procedure, someone who can drive you after you have taken your oral sedation pill(s). You MUST NOT operate a motor vehicle or any machinery after taking your medication.

Significant bleeding will have stopped before you leave the clinic, however, expect to have some slight bleeding (oozing) for 1-3 days after the procedure. In addition, you will most likely notice increased salivation when we first put your temporary teeth in. When this increased saliva mixes with a little blood, it can look like a lot of blood. If heavy bleeding continues, please call the office.

No, this is not just a procedure for the elderly. It’s actually quite common for people in their 40s, 30, even 20s to need to replace their teeth. Replacing bad teeth can be hugely beneficial to your overall physical health, and being able to smile, laugh, and converse confidently with teeth you’re proud of can be hugely beneficial to your emotional health. Again, needing to replace teeth early in life is not uncommon at all.

Our final bridge is made of zirconia, which offers superior strength and resistance to staining and wear compared to traditional acrylic All-On-4 teeth provided by many other offices. It is important to be aware of the type of teeth you will receive if you choose another office. If you opt for acrylic denture teeth with a titanium bar, expect staining around your teeth and the need for replacement every 5-10 years. Additionally, ensure you are well-informed about the costs involved in the surgery, temporaries, and final teeth. Some offices may initially charge a surgery/temporary fee, only for you to later discover an additional $5,000-$15,000 is required for your final teeth.

The cost for a single arch (upper or lower) is $19,900, while both arches have a total cost of $38,000. These prices cover the removal of any remaining teeth, implant placement, same day fixed temporary teeth, and fixed permanent zirconia teeth. Unlike other offices, we do not charge separate fees for surgery, temporary teeth, or surprise you with additional costs for your final teeth. Our pricing is transparent and there are no hidden charges.

What is unique about this procedure, and what allows us to attach to your implants from day one, is that all of your implants will be rigidly splinted together by your new teeth (the implant bridge). Splinting them together prevents the micro-movement of the implants that can lead to failure early on. Basically, your implants and bridge all support each other.

Your dental implants will be made of titanium, the same material used in artificial hip and knee joints, so your jawbone will naturally grow around and attach to them over time.

Many patients who have been informed that they are not suitable for dental implants can actually benefit from the All-On-4 Teeth in a Day procedure. By utilizing angled implants and the denser front part of the jaw bone, we can successfully perform this procedure for numerous patients who previously believed it was not possible. This approach often eliminates the need for costly grafting, which can significantly delay treatment. We invite you to schedule a complimentary consultation to determine if you are a suitable candidate for this procedure.

Our doctor is a general dentist who specializes in dental implantology and prosthetics. They are extremely passionate about dental implantology and have placed a higher number of dental implants compared to most specialists and other general dentists. Occasionally, they will work together with other dental specialists to ensure that their patients receive the most optimal treatment for their unique needs.

Because of the high number of these procedures we perform and limiting our practice to very specific procedures, we have advantages that other offices do not have. We have our in-house lab and lab technician and a single dentist that performs the entire procedure. Because of the efficiencies, we are able to offer these procedures for our patients at the most competitive pricing. Not only do we have the best prices, we also use the best quality implants and zirconia teeth.

If a dental implant fails to integrate we will replace it at no cost. We warranty the final bridge for 5 years. To keep this warranty, our patients must return every 6 months for maintenance and hygiene of their bridges/implants. The warranty does not apply to patients that continue to smoke or have uncontrolled diabetes or develop other uncontrolled systemic conditions that compromise their implants.

Usually the surgery takes about 1 hour per arch. Then, the lab portion of making the teeth takes about 2 hours. If we start in the morning, for a single upper or lower arch patients are usually done around lunch time. If we are replacing both top and bottom teeth, we usually finish around 2:30 to 3:30 in the afternoon. Most of this time is waiting for the teeth to be made in our lab and trying them in to ensure your smile is just right. It is a long day, but will definitely be worth it in the end!

While this is a good service for many patients, in the rare case of complications or teeth breaking, it is very difficult to deal with if you traveled thousands of miles away or even out of the country. Most local offices will not be willing to fix these out of town offices work. A major advantage of having a transitional set of fixed teeth on the day of your surgery is you get to test them out and see what you like/don’t like. For the final zirconia or nano-ceramic teeth we can do try-ins to ensure that your teeth look exactly like you want them to look. While it’s great to get your final teeth immediately, it does come with some serious downsides that cannot be overlooked.

All-On-4 Procedure Timeline

The procedure itself typically takes 4-6 hours depending on whether you are having a single arch treated (upper or lower) or both arches (full mouth). When you leave our office, your temporary bridge(s) will be securely attached to your new implants. You will wear your temporary bridge(s) for 4 months to allow time for your implants to integrate with your bone and for your jaws and gums to heal into a stable, long-term position before we fabricate your final bridge(s). Allowing this healing time ensures the closest possible fit for your final bridges. After this healing time, we will begin fabricating your final bridge(s). This involves a few appointments over a 5-6 week period, during which time you’ll help us design the smile you want for your permanent teeth.

1 Mouth Impressions

The lab uses these to make your temporary implant bridge(s). Possible wax try-in – if you are missing all or most of the teeth in the arch that we will be treating, the doctor may suggest a wax try-in. This is a mock up of what your temporary implant bridge and will be used to check bite position, aesthetics, etc.

2 Procedure

Remove any teeth (if applicable), place implants, place temporary implant bridge(s). The procedure typically takes anywhere from 4-7 hours.

3 Post Op #1

Day after procedure | Check healing and answer any questions you may have.

4 Post Op #2

3 weeks after procedure | Remove sutures, check healing, patient typically cleared to begin using water flosser/WaterPik at this appointment.

5 Impressions for Final Teeth

4 months after procedure

6 Try In

5-10 Days After Impressions | We will try in a mock-up of your final teeth. Multiple wax try-ins are needed in some cases. We have to make sure you are completely happy with your wax try-ins before processing them. Once they are processed, we are unable to make changes to them. If you wish to make changes to your bridge(s) after you have approved them and they have been fabricated, there will be a full-cost remake charge.
