All-on-4 dental implants (also called same day teeth) are a procedure that uses four dental implants to support a full set of prosthetic teeth in the upper or lower jaw. 

The All-on-4® dental implant procedure in NJ replaces a full set of teeth with fewer implants and less time. Unlike traditional dentures that can be uncomfortable and inconvenient, All-on-4® dental implants offer a permanent, stable, and natural-looking alternative. This innovative procedure can transform your dental health and restore your confidence in just one day.

What is the All-on-4® Treatment Concept?

The All-on-4® treatment concept is a minimally-invasive procedure that fully restores your teeth in a single day.

While traditional dental implants can require multiple surgeries and long recovery times, the “same day teeth” concept involves a single surgery to attach a full-arch prosthesis, with just four dental implants in each arch. Imagine smiling ear to ear for photos and laughing with friends and family. With All-on-4® dental implants you’ll feel confident at social gatherings. Our patient-first philosophy helps to ensure that you are comfortable throughout the procedure too.

How Are All-on-4 Dental Implants Different from Dentures?

All-on-4 dental implants are a permanent, stable solution for missing teeth, while dentures are removable and must be removed daily for cleaning and maintenance. All-on-4 are placed in the jawbone for a secure fit, while dentures rest on the gums and can shift.

All on 4 Dental Implants vs Dentures

Category	All-on-4 Dental Implants	Dentures
Permanence	All-on-4 implants are permanent and are cared for like natural teeth.	Dentures can and need to be removed daily for cleaning.
Stability	All-on-4 implants provide superior stability and allow patients to eat and chew without restrictions.	Dentures can slip and move while eating and may limit choices.
Bone Preservation	All-on-4 implants preserve jawbone density.	Dentures do not stimulate the bone and therefore do not aid in preserving bone density.
Procedure	The All-on-4 implant procedure is completed in a single day. Patients leave with a full set of teeth.	Dentures may require multiple fittings and adjustments over the course of a few weeks.
Appearance	All-on-4 implants look, feel, and function like natural teeth.	Dentures may look less natural.
Maintenance	All-on-4 implants are cared for like natural teeth with brushing and flossing.	Dentures require daily removal, special cleaning, and adhesives to keep them in place.

With All-on-4® dental implants, you can laugh, smile, and eat naturally—without worrying about your teeth. This same-day solution offers a much more durable, permanent, and natural-looking answer to your smile concerns.

Are All-on-4 Dental Implants a Good Option for Me?

There are a number of aspects that can indicate whether or not you’re an ideal candidate for this procedure. Factors to keep in mind as you’re considering restoring your smile with the All-on-4® treatment concept:

• Missing Teeth – Since the All-On-4® treatment concept involves a full-arch prosthesis, any remaining teeth must be extracted. However, many candidates have already lost most of their teeth. Any teeth that are failing but still present are gently removed during the implant surgery. Our team of Oral Surgeons in NJ would be happy to explain the process during your visit.
• Good Health – As with any surgery, the better your overall health, the quicker the recovery and the lower the likelihood of infection. Considering the health of your mouth and jawbone in particular, patients who lack sufficient bone mass for traditional dental implants are excellent candidates because All-on-4® implants can be angled into the jaw in a way that provides complete support and stability. Our team of Board Certified Oral Surgeons can easily evaluate your mouth and determine the health of your jaw and if All-on-4® would be best for you.

What is the Process for All-on-4 Dental Implants?

Thanks to decades of research and advancement in the latest technology, All-on-4® teeth replacement is typically a one day, minimally-invasive procedure. Your surgeon will extract any remaining teeth and remove any infected or diseased tissues, place each implant, and close the wounds with sutures—all in one surgery.

The Step-by-Step Process

1. Consultation and Evaluation: We will examine your oral health, and take X-rays and 3-D scans.
2. Treatment Planning: We will develop a customized plan for you, determining implant placement for the most secure and natural-looking fit. We will also begin the prosthesis design.
3. Pre-Surgery Preparation: Any remaining teeth will need to be extracted and in some cases, bone grafting may be required.
4. Implant Surgery: While comfortably under anesthesia, four implants will be strategically placed in the jawbone. Two vertical implants will be placed in the front, and two angled implants in the back.
5. Temporary Prosthesis is Placed: You’ll leave with a full set of temporary teeth attached to the implants on the same day while your custom prosthesis is being created.
6. Healing Time: The implants fuse with the jawbone over 3-6 months.
7. Final Prosthesis is Placed: Once healed, your custom-made prosthesis is attached to your implants.

Some pain and inflammation are common following your All-on-4® implant procedure. Soft foods and over-the-counter or prescription pain medications can help to ease any discomfort. For most patients, this resolves in about a week. Over the ensuing months, our team will meet with you periodically to ensure the perfect fit and comfort of your new All-on-4® dental implants.

What are the Benefits of All-on-4 Dental Implants?

• Convenience: Treat your All-on-4® implants like your natural teeth, with daily brushing and oral care.
• Comfort: Every All-on-4® treatment concept prosthesis is custom-fit for you.
• Time: Your All-on-4® dental implants restore a full arch of teeth in a single surgery, restoring functionality and your confidence in just one day.
• Confidence: Laughter truly is the best medicine! You’ll feel comfortable and confident laughing and smiling again.
• …and so much more!
