All-on-4 Teeth Implants Roseville, CA - FAQs
All-on-4 is a full-arch tooth replacement that uses four strategically placed implants to support a fixed, non-removable prosthetic, replacing an entire upper or lower set of teeth.
Unlike traditional implants, which may require 6-8 implants per arch, All-on-4 uses just four implants and is often completed in a single day, reducing cost and recovery time.
Patients with multiple missing or failing teeth, severe decay, or poor-fitting dentures can benefit. It is also ideal for those with some bone loss, as the angled implant placement reduces the need for bone grafting.
The surgical procedure typically takes 2-4 hours per arch, and many patients receive temporary teeth the same day. Full healing and final prosthetic placement take 3-6 months.
No, most patients receive a temporary fixed prosthesis the same day as surgery, so they leave with a full set of functional, natural-looking teeth.

Daily care includes brushing, flossing with a water flosser, and regular dental cleanings. Good oral hygiene is essential to prevent peri-implantitis (infection around implants).
