All-on-4 Dental Implants in Plano
A Trusted Solution for Full Smile Restoration
If you’ve been told that dental implants aren’t an option due to bone loss, All-on-4 implants may change the conversation. This advanced approach allows patients with less jawbone density to receive implant-supported dentures—without extensive grafting or a long waiting period. At Stonebriar Smile Design in Plano, we’re proud to offer All-on-4 as a streamlined, stable, and long-lasting solution for full-arch tooth replacement.
What Makes All-on-4 Different?
Unlike traditional implant dentures that may require six or more implants, the All-on-4 technique relies on just four strategically placed posts. Two are placed vertically at the front of the jaw, and two are inserted at an angle toward the back, where bone is naturally denser. This placement often eliminates the need for bone grafts—making treatment faster and less invasive.
Is All-on-4 Right for You?
At your consultation, we’ll evaluate your oral health, discuss your goals, and use digital imaging to plan precise implant placement. This technique is ideal for patients who:
- Have lost most or all of their teeth
- Have low jawbone density but want to avoid bone grafting
- Want a more stable alternative to traditional dentures
As with any implant procedure, healthy gums and a commitment to oral hygiene are key to long-term success.
What You Can Expect with All-on-4 Dental Implants
Patients who choose All-on-4 often report a dramatic improvement in both function and confidence. Here’s what sets this option apart:
- Durability that lasts: With proper care, All-on-4 dentures can last 20–30 years—far longer than conventional prosthetics.
- Reliable function: Because the implants are fused to your jawbone, you don’t have to worry about slipping, shifting, or adhesives.
- Bone preservation: Implants stimulate your jawbone and help prevent the bone loss that often occurs with removable dentures.
All-on-4 vs. Traditional Dental Implants
Traditional implants can be a great solution—but they’re not always the fastest route to a complete smile. They may require multiple surgeries, bone grafting, and a longer healing timeline. All-on-4 offers:
- Fewer surgeries
- Faster treatment completion
- Less need for additional procedures
By using the strongest areas of your jaw to anchor the implants, All-on-4 gives you a functional, full-arch restoration—often without the need for temporary dentures during healing.
