All-on-4 Dental Implants

People missing most or all of their teeth struggle not only with how they look but when eating and speaking, as well. 

With the All-on-4® technique, a full set of custom dentures can be anchored using just four strategically placed dental implants.

Learn how Jewel Dental Associates in Flushing, NY, can restore your smile.

What Is All-on-4? Understanding the Basics

The All-on-4 method differs from traditional implant placement in a number of ways, including: 

Support for a Full Denture

All-on-4 is used to support a full denture for people missing most or all of their teeth. Patients can undergo All-on-4 for replacement of upper or lower teeth.

Just Four Implants Needed

The All-on-4 system is aptly named. It supports a full denture using just four implants. Careful planning and modeling determine optimal dental implant placement.

Provides Function and Stability

Once All-on-4 dental implants are in place, they can immediately support a full denture. The final custom denture will be crafted later to finish treatment.

Experience That Makes a Difference

Dr. Feldstein has placed over 4,000 implants

Dr. Feldstein has nearly 40 years of experience treating tooth loss. During this time, he has personally placed more than 4,000 dental implants. This includes All-on-4 dental implants as well as traditional implants. He always uses the latest technology when placing implants, putting patient care and satisfaction first.

All-on-4 Implants vs. Traditional Implant Dentures Comparing Your Treatment Options

Both All-on-4 and traditionally-placed implants are good options for treating extensive tooth loss. Let's compare how each works and why one method may be better for your needs.

Traditionally-placed implant-supported denture

Traditional Implants

With traditional dental implants, five or more implants will be required to secure a full denture in place. Before placing the denture, patients will need months of healing for complete osseointegration.

All-on-4 implant-supported denture

All-on-4 Implants

With the All-on-4 technique, Dr. Feldstein places four implants at an angle to create a more stable base of support for your denture. While patients still need several months to recover from surgery, the reduced number of implants usually allows for an easier recovery. Additionally, it is also often less expensive. 

Have You Been Told You Don't Qualify for an Implant-Supported Denture?

People who have been missing teeth for a long time often grow frustrated dealing with traditional dentures day in and day out. Regrettably, by the time they decide to get implant-supported dentures, they discover they no longer have the bone mass needed to support them. It's an unfortunate fact that bone loss goes along with tooth loss, and wearing dentures accelerates the process.

All-on-4 dental implants may be a solution. If you lack good bone in the back of your jaw but still have sufficient bone quality at the front, Dr. Michael Feldstein may be able to use All-on-4 implants so you can achieve your dream of implant-supported dentures. 
 

Can the All-on-4 method fulfill your dream?

Are All-on-4 Dental Implants Right for You? 

With careful screening, we can determine if All-on-4 implant placement is the right treatment for you. Here are some common criteria that we look for at our Flushing, NY, office.

Missing Many Teeth

The All-on-4 dental implant method is made for people who are missing most or all of their teeth. Extraction can be performed on remaining teeth to make room for a full denture.

Sufficient Jawbone Density

Patients must have enough stable jaw structure to secure the four implants. If you've suffered bone loss in the jaw, an additional bone grafting surgery is required.

Good Overall Health

Patients should be in good general health. This means no adverse medical conditions and the ability to undergo oral surgery with low risk of surgical complications.

Commitment to Long Term Care

After the implants are in place, patients need to practice good oral hygiene and follow aftercare instructions to avoid issues that make implant failure more likely.

Numbers on Extensive Tooth Loss

Given these numbers on extensive tooth loss, it's no wonder that treatments like All-on-4 dental implant placement continue to grow in popularity, especially among seniors.

The Cost of All-on-4 Implants Payment Options and Financing

Many patients interested in All-on-4 have questions about the total cost of care and payment options. It can vary from patient to patient, but we'll discuss all of these concerns as part of the consultation process.

The Average Cost of Care

On average, the cost of All-on-4 implant dentures is approximately $18,000. This covers the implants themselves, as well as the prosthesis. There are added costs if additional surgery and preparation are involved.

Saving Time and Money

Some practices only perform part of the All-on-4 process. Jewel Dental Associates performs all aspects of implant placement, including tooth extractions and bone grafting. This saves patients time and money.

Insurance and Financing

Insurance policies differ, so check with your provider about All-on-4 dental implant coverage. Financing options are also available to break the total cost of treatment into affordable monthly installments.

How Much Are Simple Pleasures Worth?

All-on-4 dental implants are an investment not only in your health but also in the simple pleasures of day-to-day life, from an enjoyable meal with friends to passing conversations on the street. Implants also keep your jaw strong and let you avoid the complications that go along with traditional dentures.

While the price of All-on-4 may initially seem out of reach, even with insurance coverage, you may quickly discover that when payments are spread out over time that they can fit neatly into your monthly budget. If you have large out-of-pocket costs or lack insurance, flexible financing through CareCredit® lets you avoid large upfront costs and splits payments into more manageable monthly costs.

To find out if you qualify for All-on-4 and what your treatment will cost, request a consultation at Jewel Dental Associates in Flushing, NY. Dr. Feldstein can assess your teeth, and our knowledgeable team can go over pricing and options for payment that will fit into your budget.

The All-on-4 Implant Process A Patient Treatment Timeline

Each patient is different, and our Flushing team tailors each treatment to a guest's needs. The timeline below covers the step-by-step process for the All-on-4 procedure. We will provide a more in-depth breakdown of the process during your visit.

Initial Consultation

We will assess your health and suitability for All-on-4 implants. This will include digital x-rays, a review of your medical history, and a discussion of your concerns.
#1

Planning Treatment

Using advanced planning software, we will determine optimal dental implant placement along the jawbone. This ensures short- and long-term implant success.
#2

Implant Placement

The four implants are anchored into the jaw. Two implants are positioned diagonally to maximize stability and prevent further bone loss along the jaw.
#3

Temporary Denture

Once the dental implants are placed, they can support a temporary denture. Though not the final appliance, it restores the ability to bite and chew naturally.
#4

Osseointegration

Osseointegration occurs over the next few months. The All-on-4 dental implants fuse with the jaw, creating a level of stability that is comparable to natural tooth roots.
#5

Final Denture

The final denture is crafted using dental records and insight from the dentist. We work with Glidewell Laboratories to create a denture that looks, feels, and functions like natural teeth.
#6

Anchor a Full Denture with Just Four Dental Implants

Thanks to All-on-4 dental implants, a denture can be secured and fully functional in a single visit. This restores a patient's ability to bite, chew, speak, and smile.
