When you need to replace several teeth, dentures and single-tooth dental implants aren’t your only options. At Heritage Oral Surgery, our oral surgeons in Valencia, Canoga Park, and Palmdale, CA, offer All-on-4 treatments to replace a full arch of bottom or top teeth.

What Are All-on-4 Treatments?

These are implants that use fewer posts to replace multiple teeth. Rather than getting a separate post for each missing tooth, we place posts in strategic locations and use a bridge to replace a few or missing teeth in a row.

What Are the Benefits of All-on-4 Treatments?

Why choose this option instead of single-tooth implants or dentures? Doing so means you get all of the following advantages:

• Only four implant posts needed to replace top and bottom arches
• Reduced need for bone grafting
• Fixed in place for better stability and a longer-lasting solution
• Less invasive than single-implant procedures for multiple teeth

When to Consider This Solution

Do you have several teeth missing — or need to replace all of them? All-on-4 treatments provide an efficient way to do so without having to deal with dentures that slip or undergo more invasive surgery for single-tooth dental implants.

What to Expect from This Procedure

When a patient chooses All-on-4 treatments in Palmdale, Canoga Park, and Valencia, CA, we always start with a consultation. That helps us determine if these implants are suitable for you.

The procedure begins with post placement in your jawbone, followed by a few months or more for healing and integration with the surrounding tissue. Once your jawbone recovers, we place the permanent bridge to replace your missing teeth.

Are You a Good Candidate?

We might recommend this option if you’re missing all or most teeth in your top or bottom arch. You’ll need enough jawbone density to support the implants and healthy gums. If you’re a smoker or have certain medical conditions, we might explore other treatments instead.

How Long Do All-on-4 Treatments Last?

The implant posts are made of titanium material that lasts a lifetime in many cases. You might need the bridges replaced over the years as they become worn or if they’re damaged.
