Replace a full arch of missing or failing teeth with a fixed, natural-looking bridge supported by just four dental implants. No loose dentures, no adhesives, just a confident smile you can eat and laugh with.
All-on-4 is a full-arch tooth replacement treatment. Four titanium implants are placed in the jawbone, two towards the front and two angled towards the back, and a custom fixed bridge of teeth is attached to them. The bridge stays in place and is only removed by your dentist.
Because the back implants are angled, they can make the most of the bone you have. For many patients this reduces or avoids the need for bone grafting, which can make treatment simpler than replacing each tooth one by one.
Your new teeth are secured to implants, so there is nothing to take out at night and nothing to slip when you talk or eat.
The bridge is custom-made to suit your face, bite and smile, for teeth that look natural and feel secure.
A stable, implant-supported bite lets you enjoy a far wider range of foods than conventional dentures.
Implants stimulate the jawbone like natural tooth roots, helping to limit the bone loss that follows missing teeth.
Every smile is different, so your treatment plan is built around your mouth, your health and your goals. Dr. Bhattal will walk you through each step and answer every question before you begin.
Book a ConsultationWe examine your teeth, gums and jaw, take X-rays and talk about your goals to confirm whether All-on-4 is right for you.
We plan the position of each implant and the design of your new teeth, and review timing, comfort options and costs with you.
Any failing teeth are removed and the four implants are placed. Your dentist will explain the temporary teeth you will wear while you heal.
Once the implants have healed and fused with the bone, your permanent custom bridge is fitted, checked and adjusted for a comfortable bite.

| Daily care | Brush and clean like natural teeth | Removed for cleaning and at night |
| Eating | Strong, stable bite for most foods | Some foods can be difficult |
| Jawbone | Implants help preserve the jawbone | Bone can shrink over time, changing the fit |
| Adhesives | Not needed | Often needed |
Not sure which option suits you? We also offer custom dentures and single dental implants, and we will help you compare them at your consultation.
Many adults who are missing most of their teeth, or whose remaining teeth are failing, are good candidates. Your general health, gum health and jawbone are assessed at your consultation to confirm whether All-on-4 is right for you.
Implant placement is done with local anesthesia, and we discuss comfort options with you before treatment. Most patients describe some tenderness and swelling for a few days afterwards, which is managed with the aftercare plan we give you.
With good daily care and regular check-ups, dental implants are a long-term solution. The bridge may need maintenance or replacement over time, and we will show you how to care for it.
The cost depends on your individual treatment plan, including any extractions and the type of final bridge. We give you a clear estimate after your consultation and offer payment plans and direct billing to your insurance.
