All-on-4 / All-on-X

All-on-4 / All-on-X is an approach to full-arch tooth replacement that uses a small number of strategically placed implants to support a fixed set of replacement teeth. It is often considered by patients who are missing most or all of their teeth in an arch, or who currently wear a full denture and are looking for a more stable, implant-supported alternative.

What the Process May Involve

Evaluation & Planning — Digital X-rays help assess the jawbone and plan implant placement.
Extractions, if Needed — Remaining teeth in the arch may need to be removed before implants are placed.
Bone Grafting or Ridge Preservation — Some patients benefit from building up or maintaining bone at the implant site.
Implant Placement — A limited number of implants are positioned to support a full arch of replacement teeth.
Implant-Supported Dentures — A fixed prosthesis is attached to the implants, replacing a full arch of missing teeth.

Ongoing Care

After placement, implant restorations require regular monitoring and maintenance to help support their function over time. Our office offers implant restoration and care as part of ongoing dental visits.

Is All-on-4 / All-on-X Right for You?

Whether this approach is appropriate depends on individual factors such as bone structure, oral health history, and personal goals. A conversation with our team can help clarify whether All-on-4 / All-on-X, traditional implants, or another full or partial denture option is the best fit for your situation.
