At Brighter Smile Dental in Maroubra, we believe everyone deserves a beautiful, confident smile—without the hassle of removable dentures. That’s why we're proud to offer All-on-4 dental implant treatment. If you've been dealing with missing teeth, loose dentures, or the inconvenience of multiple procedures, All-on-4 can be a game-changer. This blog post will walk you through what All-on-4 is, how it works, and why it may be the perfect, long-lasting solution for you.
What Exactly is All-on-4?
All-on-4 is an innovative dental implant technique that allows you to replace an entire arch of missing teeth (upper or lower) using just four strategically placed implants. These implants act as stable anchors for a full arch prosthesis—giving you a fixed, natural-looking set of teeth without needing individual implants for every tooth.
Why Four Implants Are Enough
- Strategic Placement: Two posterior implants are angled to maximize jawbone contact, even in areas with lower bone density, eliminating the need for bone grafts in many cases.
- Even Support: The configuration distributes bite force evenly across the arch.
- Less Invasive: Fewer implants mean a shorter, simpler surgery and faster recovery compared to placing one implant per tooth.
The All-on-4 Procedure at Brighter Smile Dental
1. Consultation & Planning
Your journey begins with a comprehensive assessment, including 3D scans and X-rays. We’ll discuss your oral health, desired outcomes, and create a personalised treatment plan.
2. Implant Placement & Temporary Teeth
Under comfortable anaesthesia or sedation, our experienced implant team places four implants in your jaw. On the same day, a temporary fixed arch is fitted—so you leave with a functional smile.
3. Healing & Final Restoration
Over the next few months, your implants integrate with your bone (osseointegration). Then, we fit your custom-designed permanent prosthetic arch, crafted for durability and aesthetics.
4. Aftercare & Maintenance
We'll guide you through at-home care routines and schedule regular checkups. Good oral hygiene helps ensure your All-on-4 restoration lasts for many years.
Don't just take our word for it—see some of our patient success stories on the Testimonials page and compare All-on-4 with other options on our Implant Treatments page.
Is All-on-4 Right for You?
All-on-4 is ideal if you’re missing many or all teeth in an arch, have struggled with dentures, or want a lasting, natural-looking solution. It’s especially helpful for those with bone loss where traditional implants may require grafting.
However, it may not suit everyone—those with certain systemic health issues, heavy smokers, or uncontrolled gum disease may need tailored approaches. The best way to know is through a consultation at Brighter Smile Dental in Maroubra.
