How it Works

Our dentist at Indiana Dentures and Implants has enhanced the traditional All-On-4 procedure by customizing it based on their expertise, resulting in improved outcomes for patients. Each case is carefully assessed and treatment is tailored to fit the patient's unique anatomy. Between four and six implants are placed per arch, with temporary fixed bridges put in place during the healing process. Once healing is complete, final teeth are created using zirconia, a stronger and more natural-looking material than acrylic denture teeth. Zirconia is also more hygienic and resistant to staining, ensuring longer-lasting and better-looking teeth compared to traditional acrylic/titanium bridges.

Am I a Candidate?

Your doctor can assess your eligibility for All-On-4, also known as "Teeth in a Day," during a complimentary consultation, even if you have been previously informed that you lack sufficient bone for dental implants. By strategically positioning a mix of straight and angled implants to steer clear of the sinuses and make use of the sturdiest bone available, your doctor may be able to bypass the necessity for expensive and lengthy sinus augmentation bone grafts.

All-On-4 Procedure Timeline

Mouth Impressions: The lab uses these tools to make your temporary implant bridge(s). If you are missing most or all of the teeth in the treated arch, the doctor might suggest a wax try-in. This includes a model of your temporary implant bridge to check bite alignment, appearance, and other aspects.
Procedure: The process includes removing teeth if needed, placing implants, and fitting temporary implant bridges. This procedure usually takes 4-7 hours to finish.
Post Op #1: Please monitor the healing progress after the procedure and don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have.
Post Op #2: At the appointment 3 weeks after the procedure, the sutures will be removed and the healing will be checked. Typically, patients are cleared to start using a water flosser/WaterPik at this time.
Impressions for Final Teeth: It has been 4 months since the procedure.
Try In: We will create a mock-up of your final teeth within 5-10 days of impressions. In certain situations, multiple wax try-ins may be required. It is crucial that you are completely satisfied with your wax try-ins before we move forward with processing them. Once the try-ins are processed, no changes can be made. If you choose to make alterations to your bridge(s) after approval and fabrication, a full-cost remake charge will be applied.
Seat Final Teeth: Once the wax try-in(s) are approved, it usually takes 4-6 weeks for your bridge or bridges to be prepared for seating.

Frequently Asked Questions

All-On-4, also known as "Teeth in a Day" is a full-arch tooth replacement procedure that uses just four strategically placed implants per arch to support a complete, fixed set of teeth. Unlike traditional dentures, All-On-4 implants are permanently anchored in the mouth, require no removal, don't cover the roof of the mouth, and provide superior chewing ability and a far more natural look and feel.

Quite possibly. One of the key advantages of the All-On-4 approach is that the implants are strategically angled to maximize contact with available bone and avoid the sinuses, which means many patients who don't qualify for traditional implants due to bone loss can still be candidates. This often eliminates the need for costly and time-consuming bone grafting procedures. Candidacy is assessed during a free consultation.

The process involves seven key stages: taking mouth impressions and a wax try-in to plan your temporary bridge, the main procedure day where teeth are extracted and implants placed, two post-operative follow-up appointments to monitor healing, final impressions taken approximately four months after the procedure, a try-in appointment to approve your final teeth, and finally the seating of your permanent bridge, which typically takes 4–6 weeks to fabricate after approval.

Our team customizes the All-On-4 procedure based on each patient's unique anatomy and needs. Between four and six implants per arch are placed and temporarily fixed to bridges tailored to fit your jawbone and mouth structure. The number and positioning of implants, as well as the design of your final teeth, are all determined on a case-by-case basis to achieve the best possible outcome and the most natural-looking result.
