Losing an entire row of teeth doesn’t mean losing your confidence or freedom. With the groundbreaking All-on-4 technique, we can restore a full smile using just a few carefully placed implants, often even for patients with less jawbone density. The result is a secure, natural-looking set of teeth that feels like your own and allows you to eat, speak and smile without hesitation. At Lifetime Dental of Gainesville, Dr. Her is here to guide you through the process and show you how All-on-4 can give you back the comfort and confidence you deserve.
How Do All-On-4 Implants Work?
All-On-4 is an innovative dental implant technique that uses just four strategically placed implants to support a complete arch of teeth. Unlike traditional methods that may require up to eight implants, All-On-4 optimizes placement for stability using fewer implants, making it suitable for patients even with lower bone density.
Advantages of Choosing All-On-4
With All-on-4, you can enjoy the strength and comfort of a smile that feels secure. No slipping, no irritation, just natural confidence. One of the most exciting benefits is immediacy; in many cases, you’ll leave your appointment with a full set of temporary teeth the very same day, so you can start living and smiling without delay. Beyond appearances, All-on-4 also protects your long-term health by preserving your jawbone, preventing the deterioration that often comes with tooth loss. It’s a life-changing solution designed to restore not just your teeth, but your comfort and confidence.
The All-On-4 Procedure at Lifetime Dental
- Consultation and Planning: Our skilled team begins with a thorough examination and 3D imaging for precision.
- Implant Placement: The four implants are carefully positioned in the jaw where the bone is densest, with the posterior implants angled at 45 degrees for optimal support.
- Temporary Teeth: You’ll typically receive temporary prosthetics the day of your surgery, allowing you to enjoy a functioning smile immediately.
- Final Restoration: Once healing occurs, returning for your beautiful, permanent set of teeth completes your transformation.
All-On-4 vs. Traditional Implants
There are three major reasons All-on-4 is different from traditional dental implant placement:
- The Number of Posts: Regular implant dentures often need 6 or even 8 posts to support them. All-on-4 lets you replace the same number of teeth with fewer implants.
- Less Need for Bone Grafting: All-on-4 can speed up the implant process for patients who would otherwise need bone grafting before dental implant surgery.
- Less Waiting Time for New Teeth: In many cases, patients who have All-on-4 performed are able to get a customized denture immediately after receiving their implant posts.

A Complete Smile You Can Trust
All-On-4 is an innovative dental implant technique that uses four strategically placed implants in the jaw to support a full arch of teeth. This method provides robust support, mimicking the stability and appearance of natural teeth.
Suitable candidates for All-On-4 include individuals with significant tooth loss or those experiencing the limitations of dentures. Even patients with lower bone density might qualify, as the technique carefully positions implants in areas of denser bone.
With the All-On-4 procedure, you can often leave our office the same day with a temporary set of teeth, providing immediate improvement in both function and aesthetics. Additionally, this treatment helps maintain jawbone health by preventing the bone loss that typically occurs with missing teeth.
The All-On-4 procedure begins with a detailed consultation, including 3D imaging for precise treatment planning. Four implants are strategically placed in the jaw to provide optimal support, and temporary prosthetics are fitted immediately to restore function and appearance. After the healing period, the temporary teeth are replaced with a permanent prosthetic, giving you a stable, natural-looking smile.
Caring for All-On-4 implants is similar to maintaining natural teeth. Regular brushing and flossing, combined with routine dental check-ups, help ensure both your oral health and the long-term stability of your implants.
